New cobalt-free high-voltage spinel cathode material with high areal capacity

Green Car Congress

Advancing cathode materials with both high energy density and low cost have always been the main objective of battery material research. It should be noted, the cost and sustainability of lithium-ion batteries are not only limited by the production of Co and Ni but also potentially limited by the lithium element itself. …

ANL team develops new class of Li- and Na- rechargeable batteries based on selenium and selenium-sulfur; greater volumetric energy densities than sulfur-based batteries

Green Car Congress

Cycling performance of Li/SeS 2 ?C, Researchers at Argonne National Laboratory have developed selenium and selenium–sulfur (Se x S y )-based cathode materials for a new class of room-temperature lithium and sodium batteries. Unlike the widely studied Li/S system, both Se and Se x S y can be cycled to high voltages (up to 4.6

Researchers determine cause of voltage fade in NMC cathode materials, find it is reversible

Green Car Congress

Lithium-rich layered oxides (LRLO) are leading candidates for the next-generation cathode materials for energy storage, as they can deliver 50% excess capacity over commercially used compounds. The lithium-rich layered oxide (LRLO) compounds are among the most promising positive electrode materials for next-generation batteries.
