Two-phase Al(OH)3–PbSnF4 composites (concentrations of aluminum hydroxide are equal to 5 wt.%, 15 wt.% and 30 wt.%) has been prepared by high-energy ball-milling method. The materials were employed as anodes in Li-ion batteries. It was established that PbSnF4-based systems yield high initial capacity of 800–1100 mAh g–1. The reversible specific capacity of Al(OH)3–PbSnF4 (aluminum hydroxide – 15 wt.%) after 10-fold charge–discharge cycling in the range of 2.5–0.005 V attains 120 mAh g–1, while the specific capacity of pure PbSnF4 is equal only to 20 mAh g–1. It has been shown that the deviation from 15 wt.% concentration of Al (OH)3 decreases cycling stability of lead fluorostannate (II).

Particle size plays an important role in the electrochemical performance of cathodes for lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries. High energy planetary ball milling of LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 (NMC) cathode materials was investigated as a route to reduce the particle size and improve the electrochemical performance. The effect of ball milling times, milling speeds, and composition on the structure and properties of NMC cathodes was determined. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that ball milling decreased primary particle (crystallite) size by up to 29%, and the crystallite size was correlated with the milling time and milling speed. Using relatively mild milling conditions that provided an intermediate crystallite size, cathodes with higher capacities, improved rate capabilities, and improved capacity retention were obtained within 14 μm-thick electrode configurations. High milling speeds and long milling times not only resulted in smaller crystallite sizes but also lowered electrochemical performance. Beyond reduction in crystallite size, ball milling was found to increase the interfacial charge transfer resistance, lower the electrical conductivity, and produce aggregates that influenced performance. Computations support that electrolyte diffusivity within the cathode and film thickness play a significant role in the electrode performance. This study shows that cathodes with improved performance are obtained through use of mild ball milling conditions and appropriately designed electrodes that optimize the multiple transport phenomena involved in electrochemical charge storage materials.

Over the past several decades, the number of electric vehicles (EVs) has continued to increase. Projections estimate that worldwide, more than 125 million EVs will be on the road by 2030. At the heart of these advanced vehicles is the lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery which provides the required energy storage. This paper presents and compares key components of Li-ion batteries and describes associated battery management systems, as well as approaches to improve the overall battery efficiency, capacity, and lifespan. Material and thermal characteristics are identified as critical to battery performance. The positive and negative electrode materials, electrolytes and the physical implementation of Li-ion batteries are discussed. In addition, current research on novel high energy density batteries is presented, as well as opportunities to repurpose and recycle the batteries.

Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 cathode materials for Li -ion batteries were synthesized by a facile sol–gel method followed by calcination at various temperatures (700°C, 800°C and 900°C). Lithium acetate dihydrate, manganese (II) acetate tetrahydrate, nickel (II) acetate tetrahydrate and cobalt (II) acetate tetrahydrate are employed as the metal precursors, and citric acid monohydrate as the chelating agent. For the obtained Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 materials, the metal components existed in the form of Mn 4+, Ni 2+ and Co 3+, and their molar ratio was in good agreement with 0.56 : 0.16 : 0.08. The calcination temperature played an important role in the particle size, crystallinity and further electrochemical properties of the cathode materials. The Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 material calcined at 800°C for 6 h showed the best electrochemical performances. Its discharge specific capacities cycled at 0.1 C, 0.5 C, 1 C and 2 C rates were 266.0 mAh g−1, 243.1 mAh g−1, 218.2 mAh g−1 and 192.9 mAh g−1, respectively. When recovered to 0.1 C rate, the discharge specific capacity was 260.2 mAh g−1 and the capacity loss is only 2.2%. This work demonstrates that the sol–gel method is a facile route to prepare high performance Li [ Li 0.2 Mn 0.56 Ni 0.16 Co 0.08] O 2 cathode materials for Li -ion batteries.

ABSTRACTRechargeable batteries are in high demand for future hybrid vehicles and electronic devices markets. Among various kinds of rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are most popular for their obvious advantages of high energy and power density, ability to offer higher operating voltage, absence of memory effect, operation over a wider temperature range and showing a low self-discharge rate. Researchers have shown great deal of interest in developing new, improved electrode materials for Li-ion batteries leading to higher specific capacity, longer cycle life and extra safety. In the present study, we have shown that an anode prepared from interface-controlled multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), directly grown on copper current collectors, may be the best suitable anode for a Li-ion battery. The newly developed anode structure has shown very high specific capacity (almost 2.5 times as that of graphite), excellent rate capability, nil capacity degradation in long-cycle operation and introduced a higher level of safety by avoiding organic binders. Enhanced properties of the anode were well supported by the structural characterization and can be related to very high Li-ion intercalation on the walls of CNTs, as observed in HRTEM. This newly developed CNT-based anode structure is expected to offer appreciable advancement in performance of future Li-ion batteries.

A copolymer of 4-(1H-pyrrol-1-yl)phenol (PLPY) and pyrrole ( P(PLPY-co-Py) )was synthesized. And the chemical structure and battery performance of the prepared materials were characterized comparably by 1H NMR, FT-IR spectra and galvanostatic charge-discharge testing using simulant lithium ion half-cell method, respectively. The results shows that the introduction of the phenol group to the pyrrole as a rigid side chain could prevent the polymer from agglomeration and optimize the particle morphology of the resulting polymers, all of which made it demonstrate a significantly improved specific capacity (73.9 mAh•g-1) compared with PPy (21.4 mAh•g-1)

Nanoscale Fe3O4-Sn@CNFs was prepared by loading Fe3O4 and Sn nanoparticles onto CNFs synthesized via electrostatic spinning and subsequent thermal treatment by solvothermal reaction, and were used as anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. The prepared anode delivers an excellent reversible specific capacity of 1120 mAh·g−1 at a current density of 100 mA·g−1 at the 50th cycle. The recovery rate of the specific capacity (99%) proves the better cycle stability. Fe3O4 nanoparticles are uniformly dispersed on the surface of nanofibers with high density, effectively increasing the electrochemical reaction sites, and improving the electrochemical performance of the active material. The rate and cycling performance of the fabricated electrodes were significantly improved because of Sn and Fe3O4 loading on CNFs with high electrical conductivity and elasticity.
