Li-ion battery technology uses lithium metal ions as a key component of its electrochemistry
Lithium metal ions have become a popular choice for batteries due to their high energy density and low weight. One notable example is lithium-ion batteries, which are used in a wide range of electronic devices, from smartphones to laptops. Another type, lithium iron phosphate batteries, offer greater stability and a longer lifespan. This makes them well-suited for use in electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems.
Basically, lithium batteries have four key components.
1. Cathode material: The material used for the positive electrode determines the voltage and capacity of the lithium-ion battery as well as being the source of the lithium ions.
2. Anode material: When the lithium-ion battery pack is being charged, the anode material of the negative electrode is what the electric current flows through from an external circuit. It is also where Li-ions are stored.
3. Electrolyte: This is made up of additives, solvents, and salts. It is the conduit between the cathode and anode.
