Which outcome results when a desiccant reduces humidity inside lithium-ion pouch cell?

A)Hydrolysis reactions decrease, cell lifespan increases
B)Ionic conductivity decreases, power output drops
C)Electrolyte viscosity increases, charge rate diminishes
D)Surface passivation forms, capacity fades quicker

💡 Explanation

Reduced humidity minimizes water available to hydrolyze LiPF6 salt, decreasing HF formation by the hydrolysis mechanism; therefore, cell degradation slows and lifespan increases, rather than other electrochemical performance parameters being directly restricted by water.
