摘要
Accurately predicting the transport properties of liquid electrolytes is critical for next-generation battery design and requires force fields that are both quantum-mechanically accurate and fast enough for long-timescale simulation. Recent large-scale pretrained machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) approach density-functional-theory accuracy, but remain too slow to access the necessary timescales to converge transport properties. We provide a knowledge distillation procedure to transfer the accuracy of a large-scale "teacher" MLIP into fast, system-specific "students", without any additional ab initio data. Our distilled models run ~40x faster, reproduce teacher-predicted structural observables, and produce stable 20 ns trajectories in days, rather than the months the teacher would require. Across a diverse set of sodium- and lithium-ion electrolytes, student-predicted self-diffusivities, ionic conductivities, and shear viscosities track experiment and outperform classical force-field predictions, establishing distillation as a practical route to accurate, long-timescale simulations necessary for high-throughput electrolyte screening.
