INL, UCSD researchers find slow, low-energy charging of Li batteries creates glassy lithium; high-performance Li-metal batteries

Green Car Congress

AUGUST 1, 2020

The findings suggest strategies for fine-tuning recharging approaches to boost battery life and—intriguingly—for making glassy metals for other applications. Compared to crystalline Li, glassy Li outperforms in electrochemical reversibility, and it has a desired structure for high-energy rechargeable Li batteries.

Up until now, Li-ion batteries have been considered to exhibit no “memory effect”—a deviation in the voltage of the battery resulting from repeated charging after being only partially discharged that can limit the usability of the stored energy as well as the ability to determine the state of charge of the battery reliably.

Researchers at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia have called for new tools that can more accurately measure an electrochemical cell’s Coulombic efficiency (CE) when evaluating cycle life of lithium-ion cells as well as other battery chemistries. Such CE measurements would have to be precise on the scale of at least ±0.01%.”

The basic function of the EVSE is to provide redundant safety features to protect the user from electrical hazards while connecting and disconnecting the plug to the vehicle. Charging while cold can be downright catastrophic, however, because it can result in a failure referred to colloquially—but accurately—as “lithium plate-out.”
