It's part of a whirlwind of battery breakthroughs happening around the world that are providing better components, chemistry, ...

Learn how simultaneous DSC-TGA (SDT) techniques uncover critical thermal behaviors in LFP lithium-ion battery cathodes.

Scientists have made a significant discovery about residual lithium in high-nickel cathode materials, pointing to ...

To ensure optimal and economical battery operation, it is necessary to consider its lifetime-limiting aspects, e.g., performance degradation and degradation costs. Battery performance degradation is ...

Manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries inform capacity degradation for regular, symmetrical charge/discharge cycles, which is clearly problematic in real life applications where charge/discharge ...

The use of anionic redox has become a new paradigm for improving the energy density of rechargeable batteries, which is essential for improving the market competitiveness of sodium-ion batteries.

Using higher voltage does charge batteries faster, but it can also speed up battery degradation. Lithium ions flooded with electrons can convert to lithium metal that deposits on an electrode’s ...

Lithium transition-metal oxides (LiMn2O4 and LiMO2 where M = Ni, Mn, Co, etc.) are widely applied as cathode materials in lithium-ion batteries due to their considerable capacity and energy density.

Toshiba also explains in more detail why batteries with NTO anodes are said to be superior to current graphite-based lithium-ion batteries, especially LFP batteries: Although these could provide the ...
