The resulting 12-sided carbon nanospheres had “bumpy” surfaces that demonstrated excellent electrical charge transfer capabilities. The material exhibits a high reversible capacity of 624 mAh g –1 with an 85.9% capacity retention at 0.1 A g –1 as the temperature drops to ?20 Even if the temperature drops to ?35

Coordination compounds are molecules that possess a metal center bound to ligands (atoms, ions or molecules that donate electrons to the metal); these complexes can be neutral or charged. The phases are insoluble in battery electrolytes, have high gravimetric density, and can be cycled with low carbon content and high mass loading.

Roskill forecasts that Li-ion battery demand will increase more than ten-fold by 2029, reaching in excess of 1,800GWh capacity. In the late 2020s, Li-ion technologies could see increasing competition from other battery technologies, though Li-ion cells are expected to maintain their dominant position, Roskill said.

China dominates BloombergNEF’s (BNEF) lithium-ion battery supply chain ranking in 2020, having quickly surpassed Japan and Korea that were leaders for the majority of the previous decade. Sustainability and carbon emissions associated with the supply chain are of growing importance. —James Frith, BNEF’s head of energy storage.
