Ford is exploring a variety of “beyond Li-ion” solutions, including Lithium-sulfur, Lithium-air and solid-state lithium-ion batteries. Because the technology is similar to that of fuel cells, some of the design and engineering work that has already gone into fuel cells could be adapted for Li-air, he said.

Lithium-sulfur batteries are considered as highly promising candidate applied for EVs due to their high specific energy. Moreover, high temperatures also promote lithium polysulfide dissolution into the electrolyte, resulting in poor cycle life. Future work is aimed at addressing these issues. 6b00577.

Replacing the organic liquid electrolyte with a nonflammable and more reliable inorganic solid electrolyte (SE) simplifies battery design while improving safety and durability of the system. The all-solid-state battery also offers improved packaging efficiency, as the cell design can allow in-series stacking and bi-polar structures.
