TiO2has large potential ability in Lithium-ion batteries due to its high energy density and safety. The main reasons that limit the performance of TiO2electrode is its low real capacity which caused by poor conductivity and other factors. Varying bulk TiO2materials to nanoscale is believed a promising method as it could increase Li insertion sites, short the ions diffusion distance and enhance the kinetics. In addition, doping heterogeneous elements or compositing other conductivity materials could enable TiO2to improve electron transfer ability. In this paper, we reviewed the electrochemical performance of some nanostructured TiO2and analyzed the merits and weaknesses. Some challenges and perspectives for future research were also discussed.

Abstract New methods are urgently required to identify degradation and failure mechanisms in high energy density energy storage materials such as Ni-rich LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 cathodes (NMC811) for Li-ion batteries. Understanding and ultimately avoiding these mechanisms requires in-situ tracking of the complex electrochemical processes that occur in different parts of battery cells. Here we demonstrate a new operando spectroscopy method that enables the tracking of electrolyte chemistry, applied here for high energy density Li-ion batteries with a NMC811 cathode, during electrochemical cycling. This is achieved by embedding a novel hollow-core optical fibre probe inside the battery to monitor the evolution of electrolyte species by background-free Raman spectroscopy. Our data reveals changes in the ratio of carbonate solvents and electrolyte additives as a function of the cell voltage, as well as changes in the lithium-ion solvation dynamics. This advanced operando methodology delivers a new way to study battery degradation mechanisms, and the understanding it develops should contribute to extending the lifetime of next-generation batteries.

Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries have been competitive in Electric Vehicles (EVs) due to their high energy density and long lifetime. However, there are still issues, which have to be solved, related to the fast-charging capability of EVs. The pulsed current charging technique is expected to improve the lifetime, charging speed, charging/discharging capacity, and the temperature rising of Li-ion batteries. However, the impact of the pulsed current parameters (i.e., frequency, duty cycle, and magnitude) on characteristics of Li-ion batteries has not been fully understood yet. This paper summarizes the existing pulsed current modes, which are positive Pulsed Current Mode (PPC) and its five extended modes, and Negative Pulsed Current (NPC) mode and its three extended modes. An overview of the impact of pulsed current techniques on the performance of Li-ion batteries is presented. Then the main impact factors of the PPC strategy and the NPC strategy are analyzed and discussed. The weight of these impact factors on lifetime, charging speed, charging/discharging capacity, and the temperature rising of batteries is presented, which provides guidance to design advanced charging/discharging strategies as well as to determine future research gaps.

Li-ion batteries have been widely used. However, the safety concern is always serious due to its high energy density. In order to improve the safety of the batteries, it is necessary to use the protection integration circuit. In this article, the concept for realizing the safety protection of Li-ion batteries during charging and discharging is described briefly. A circuit design using Seiko BMS chip S-8209 is purposed. Based on this, a simulation was performed and verified using Pspice program, which provides a theoretical basis for the circuit design.
