Positive electrodes for Li-ion and lithium batteries (also termed “cathodes”) have been under intense scrutiny since the advent of the Li-ion cell in 1991. This is especially true in the past decade.
Graphite and its derivatives are currently the predominant materials for the anode. The chemical compositions of these batteries rely heavily on key minerals such as lithium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, and aluminium for the positive electrode, and materials like carbon and silicon for the anode (Goldman et al., 2019, Zhang and Azimi, 2022).
The most common cathode materials used in lithium-ion batteries include lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2), lithium manganese oxide (LiMn2O4), lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4 or LFP), and lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (LiNiMnCoO2 or NMC). Each of these materials offers varying levels of energy density, thermal stability, and cost-effectiveness.
The positive electrodes that are most common in Li-ion batteries for grid energy storage are the olivine LFP and the layered oxide, LiNixMnyCo1-x-yO2 (NMC). Their different structures and properties make them suitable for different applications .
Hence, the current scenario of electrode materials of Li-ion batteries can be highly promising in enhancing the battery performance making it more efficient than before. This can reduce the dependence on fossil fuels such as for example, coal for electricity production. 1. Introduction
In commercialized LIBs, Li insertion materials that can reversibly insert and extract Li-ions coupled with electron exchange while maintaining the framework structure of the materials are used as both positive and negative electrodes.
