Summary:
Electrodes including a passivation layer formed prior to receiving an initial charge are provided. The electrodes comprise an electrode-composition including an active electrode species, in which the electrode-composition comprises a first surface. The electrodes also comprise a passivation layer positioned onto at least a portion of the first surface. The passivation layer comprises: (i) a matrix material comprising (a) a cured propoxylated polymer, (b) an uncured hydrophobic glycol ether, or a combination of (a) and (b); and (ii) at least a first electrolyte. The electrodes may be included into an electrochemical cell.
