More details on work supporting NEC prototype 4.5V Li-ion battery; modified LiNiMnO cathode and fluorinated electrolyte

Green Car Congress

NEC Corporation has developed a prototype next-generation manganese lithium-ion battery featuring cathodes that support higher voltage operations (4.5V Decomposition of the electrolyte may cause gas generation, and it can cause swelling of cells. Charging was carried out at constant current of 1 C up to 4.75 Honolulu PRiME 2012.

Li 2 S) can be accommodated more easily, leading to better cycle stabilities. This compound is significantly more stable, as it changes less during each charging process than metallic lithium. This process causes the liquid to break down into gas and solids and the battery to dry out. Honolulu PRiME 2012. 2012.10.004.
