A high-power and fast charging Li-ion battery with outstanding cycle-life.

ABSTRACT: Electrochemical energy storage devices based on Li-ion cells currently power almost all electronic devices and power tools. The development of new Li-ion cell configurations by incorporating innovative functional components (electrode materials and electrolyte formulations) will allow to bring this technology beyond mobile electronics and to boost performance largely beyond the state-of-the-art. Here we demonstrate a new full Li-ion cell constituted by a high-potential cathode material, i.e. LiNi_0.5Mn_1.5O₄, a safe nanostructured anode material, i.e. TiO₂, and a composite electrolyte made by a mixture of an ionic liquid suitable for high potential applications, i.e. Pyr_1,4PF₆, a lithium salt, i.e. LiPF₆, and standard organic carbonates. The final cell configuration is able to reversibly cycle lithium for thousands of cycles at 1000 mAg^-1 and a capacity retention of 65% at cycle 2000.

Superior Low-Temperature Power and Cycle Performances of Na-Ion Battery over Li-Ion Battery.

Project description:The most simple and clear advantage of Na-ion batteries (NIBs) over Li-ion batteries (LIBs) is the natural abundance of Na, which allows inexpensive production of NIBs for large-scale applications. However, although strenuous research efforts have been devoted to NIBs particularly since 2010, certain other advantages of NIBs have been largely overlooked, for example, their low-temperature power and cycle performances. Herein, we present a comparative study of spirally wound full-cells consisting of Li0.1Na0.7Co0.5Mn0.5O2 (or Li0.8Co0.5Mn0.5O2) and hard carbon and report that the power of NIB at -30 °C is ∼21% higher than that of LIB. Moreover, the capacity retention in cycle testing at 0 °C is ∼53% for NIB but only ∼29% for LIB. Raman spectroscopy and density functional theory calculations revealed that the superior performance of NIB is due to the relatively weak interaction between Na+ ions and aprotic polar solvents.

High-rate aluminium yolk-shell nanoparticle anode for Li-ion battery with long cycle life and ultrahigh capacity.

Project description:Alloy-type anodes such as silicon and tin are gaining popularity in rechargeable Li-ion batteries, but their rate/cycling capabilities should be improved. Here by making yolk-shell nanocomposite of aluminium core (30 nm in diameter) and TiO2 shell (∼3 nm in thickness), with a tunable interspace, we achieve 10 C charge/discharge rate with reversible capacity exceeding 650 mAh g(-1) after 500 cycles, with a 3 mg cm(-2) loading. At 1 C, the capacity is approximately 1,200 mAh g(-1) after 500 cycles. Our one-pot synthesis route is simple and industrially scalable. This result may reverse the lagging status of aluminium among high-theoretical-capacity anodes.

High Coulomb Efficiency Sn-Co Alloy/rGO Composite Anode Material for Li-ion Battery with Long Cycle-Life.

Project description:The low cycle performance and low Coulomb efficiency of tin-based materials confine their large-scale commercial application for lithium-ion batteries. To overcome the shortage of volume expansion of pristine tin, Sn-Co alloy/rGO composites have been successfully synthesized by chemical reduction and sintering methods. The effects of sintering temperature on the composition, structure and electrochemical properties of Sn-Co alloy/rGO composites were investigated by experimental study and first-principles calculation. The results show that Sn-Co alloys are composed of a large number of CoSn and trace CoSn2 intermetallics, which are uniformly anchored on graphene nanosheets. The sintering treatment effectively improves the electrochemical performance, especially for the first Coulomb efficiency. The first charge capacity of Sn-Co alloy/rGO composites sintered at 450 °C is 675 mAh·g-1, and the corresponding Coulomb efficiency reaches 80.4%. This strategy provides a convenient approach to synthesizing tin-based materials for high-performance lithium-ion batteries.

Comparative Life Cycle Assessment of a Novel Al-Ion and a Li-Ion Battery for Stationary Applications.

Project description:The foreseen high penetration of fluctuant renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar, will cause an increased need for batteries to store the energy produced and not instantaneously consumed. Due to the high production cost and significant environmental impacts associated with the production of lithium-ion nickel-manganese-cobalt (Li-ion NMC) batteries, several chemistries are proposed as a potential substitute. This study aims to identify and compare the lifecycle environmental impacts springing from a novel Al-ion battery, with the current state-of-the-art chemistry, i.e., Li-ion NMC. The global warming potential (GWP) indicator was selected to express the results due to its relevance to society, policy and to facilitate the comparison of our results with other research. The cradle-to-grave process-based assessment uses two functional units: (1) per-cell manufactured and (2) per-Wh of storage capacity. The results identified the battery's production as the highest carbon intensity phase, being the energy usage the main contributor to GWP. In general, the materials and process involved in the manufacturing and recycling of the novel battery achieve a lower environmental impact in comparison to the Li-ion technology. However, due to the Al-ion's low energy density, a higher amount of materials are needed to deliver equivalent performance than a Li-ion.

Environmentally-friendly aqueous Li (or Na)-ion battery with fast electrode kinetics and super-long life.

Project description:Current rechargeable batteries generally display limited cycle life and slow electrode kinetics and contain environmentally unfriendly components. Furthermore, their operation depends on the redox reactions of metal elements. We present an original battery system that depends on the redox of I(-)/I3 (-) couple in liquid cathode and the reversible enolization in polyimide anode, accompanied by Li(+) (or Na(+)) diffusion between cathode and anode through a Li(+)/Na(+) exchange polymer membrane. There are no metal element-based redox reactions in this battery, and Li(+) (or Na(+)) is only used for charge transfer. Moreover, the components (electrolyte/electrode) of this system are environment-friendly. Both electrodes are demonstrated to have very fast kinetics, which gives the battery a supercapacitor-like high power. It can even be cycled 50,000 times when operated within the electrochemical window of 0 to 1.6 V. Such a system might shed light on the design of high-safety and low-cost batteries for grid-scale energy storage.

A Bifunctional-Modulated Conformal Li/Mn-Rich Layered Cathode for Fast-Charging, High Volumetric Density and Durable Li-Ion Full Cells.

Project description:Lithium- and manganese-rich (LMR) layered cathode materials hold the great promise in designing the next-generation high energy density lithium ion batteries. However, due to the severe surface phase transformation and structure collapse, stabilizing LMR to suppress capacity fade has been a critical challenge. Here, a bifunctional strategy that integrates the advantages of surface modification and structural design is proposed to address the above issues. A model compound Li1.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13O2 (MNC) with semi-hollow microsphere structure is synthesized, of which the surface is modified by surface-treated layer and graphene/carbon nanotube dual layers. The unique structure design enabled high tap density (2.1 g cm-3) and bidirectional ion diffusion pathways. The dual surface coatings covalent bonded with MNC via C-O-M linkage greatly improves charge transfer efficiency and mitigates electrode degradation. Owing to the synergistic effect, the obtained MNC cathode is highly conformal with durable structure integrity, exhibiting high volumetric energy density (2234 Wh L-1) and predominant capacitive behavior. The assembled full cell, with nanographite as the anode, reveals an energy density of 526.5 Wh kg-1, good rate performance (70.3% retention at 20 C) and long cycle life (1000 cycles). The strategy presented in this work may shed light on designing other high-performance energy devices.

Heterogeneous intercalated metal-organic framework active materials for fast-charging non-aqueous Li-ion capacitors.

Project description:Intercalated metal-organic frameworks (iMOFs) based on aromatic dicarboxylate are appealing negative electrode active materials for Li-based electrochemical energy storage devices. They store Li ions at approximately 0.8 V vs. Li/Li+ and, thus, avoid Li metal plating during cell operation. However, their fast-charging capability is limited. Here, to circumvent this issue, we propose iMOFs with multi-aromatic units selected using machine learning and synthesized via solution spray drying. A naphthalene-based multivariate material with nanometric thickness allows the reversible storage of Li-ions in non-aqueous Li metal cell configuration reaching 85% capacity retention at 400 mA g-1 (i.e., 30 min for full charge) and 20 °C compared to cycling at 20 mA g-1 (i.e., 10 h for full charge). The same material, tested in combination with an activated carbon-based positive electrode, enables a discharge capacity retention of about 91% after 1000 cycles at 0.15 mA cm-2 (i.e., 2 h for full charge) and 20 °C. We elucidate the charge storage mechanism and demonstrate that during Li intercalation, the distorted crystal structure promotes electron delocalization by controlling the frame vibration. As a result, a phase transition suppresses phase separation, thus, benefitting the electrode's fast charging behavior.

Fabrication of high-performance dual carbon Li-ion hybrid capacitor: mass balancing approach to improve the energy-power density and cycle life.

Project description:Most lithium-ion capacitor (LIC) devices include graphite or non-porous hard carbon as negative electrode often failing when demanding high energy at high power densities. Herein, we introduce a new LIC formed by the assembly of polymer derived hollow carbon spheres (HCS) and a superactivated carbon (AC), as negative and positive electrodes, respectively. The hollow microstructure of HCS and the ultra large specific surface area of AC maximize lithium insertion/diffusion and ions adsorption in each of the electrodes, leading to individual remarkable capacity values and rate performances. To optimize the performance of the LIC not only in terms of energy and power densities but also from a stability point of view, a rigorous mass balance study is also performed. Optimized LIC, using a 2:1 negative to positive electrode mass ratio, shows very good reversibility within the operative voltage region of 1.5-4.2 V and it is able to deliver a specific cell capacity of 28 mA h-1 even at a high current density of 10 A g-1. This leads to an energy density of 68 W h kg-1 at an extreme power density of 30 kW kg-1. Moreover, this LIC device shows an outstanding cyclability, retaining more than 92% of the initial capacity after 35,000 charge-discharge cycles.

Advanced Electrodes for High Power Li-ion Batteries.

Project description:While little success has been obtained over the past few years in attempts to increase the capacity of Li-ion batteries, significant improvement in the power density has been achieved, opening the route to new applications, from hybrid electric vehicles to high-power electronics and regulation of the intermittency problem of electric energy supply on smart grids. This success has been achieved not only by decreasing the size of the active particles of the electrodes to few tens of nanometers, but also by surface modification and the synthesis of new multi-composite particles. It is the aim of this work to review the different approaches that have been successful to obtain Li-ion batteries with improved high-rate performance and to discuss how these results prefigure further improvement in the near future.

Extreme fast charging of commercial Li-ion batteries via combined thermal switching and self-heating approaches.

Project description:The mass adoption of electric vehicles is hindered by the inadequate extreme fast charging (XFC) performance (i.e., less than 15 min charging time to reach 80% state of charge) of commercial high-specific-energy (i.e., >200 Wh/kg) lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Here, to enable the XFC of commercial LIBs, we propose the regulation of the battery's self-generated heat via active thermal switching. We demonstrate that retaining the heat during XFC with the switch OFF boosts the cell's kinetics while dissipating the heat after XFC with the switch ON reduces detrimental reactions in the battery. Without modifying cell materials or structures, the proposed XFC approach enables reliable battery operation by applying <15 min of charge and 1 h of discharge. These results are almost identical regarding operativity for the same battery type tested applying a 1 h of charge and 1 h of discharge, thus, meeting the XFC targets set by the United States Department of Energy. Finally, we also demonstrate the feasibility of integrating the XFC approach in a commercial battery thermal management system.
