Accurate lifetime prediction of lithium-ion batteries is a great challenge for the researchers and engineers involved in battery applications in electric vehicles and satellites.  In this study, a semi-empirical model is introduced to predict the capacity loss of lithium-ion batteries as a function of charge and discharge cycles, operational time, and temperature. The model parameters are obtai...

Beyond state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery (LIB) technology with metallic lithium anodes to replace conventional ion intercalation anode materials is highly desirable because of lithium's highest specific capacity (3,860 mA/g) and lowest negative electrochemical potential (∼3.040 V vs. the standard hydrogen electrode). In this work, we report for the first time, to our knowledge, a 3D lithium-...

Li-ion battery, separator, multicoreshell structure, thermal stability, long-term stability. A nanofibrous membrane with multiple cores of polyimide (PI) in the shell of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) was prepared using a facile one-pot electrospinning technique with a single nozzle. Unique multicore-shell (MCS) structure of the electrospun composite fibers was obtained, which resulted from ele...

Numerous lithium-ion battery (LIB) fires and explosions have raised serious concerns about the safety issued associated with LIBs; some of these incidents were mainly caused by overcharging of LIBs. Therefore, to have a better understanding of the fire hazards caused by LIB overcharging, two widely used commercial LIBs, nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP), with ...

As environmental concerns mostly drive the electrification of our economy and corresponding increase in demand for battery storage systems, information about potential impacts different systems is required. However, this kind scarce emerging post-lithium such as magnesium-sulfur (MgS) battery. Therefore, we use life cycle assessment following a cradle-to-gate perspective to quantify cumulative ...

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have become one of the most competitive energy storage technologies. However, “thermal runaway” LIBs leads to serious safety issues. Early warning is a prerequisite for widely applications power battery and large-scale systems. As reported, hydrogen (H2) could be generated due reaction lithium metal polymers inside battery. The generation H2 some time earlier than r...

A precise interpretation of lithium-ion battery (LIB) heat generation is indispensable to the advancement and accomplishment thermal management systems for different applications LIB, including electric vehicles. The internal resistance a lithium titanate oxide (LTO)-based LIB was determined at state charge (SOC) levels current rates understand relationship between generation. Random pulse disc...

With an ever increasing energy demand and environmental issues, many state-of-the-art nanostructured electrode materials have been developed for energy storage devices and they include batteries, supercapacitors and fuel cells. Among these electrode materials, L-TMD (layered transition metal dichalcogenide) nanosheets (especially, S (sulfur) and Se (selenium) based dichalcogenides) have receive...

With the extensive applications of lithium ion batteries, many batteries fire and explosion accidents were reported. Base on the combustion triangle theory, the combustion triangle contributions of lithium ion battery were analysed. By using C80 micro calorimeter, the thermal behavior studies on the materials show that the flammable electrolyte, oxygen generated by charged cathode and anode dec...

Abstract Lithium ion battery (LIB) technology is the state-of-the-art rechargeable energy storage for electric vehicles, stationary and personal electronics. However, a wide variety of degradation effects still contribute to performance limitations. The metallic copper aluminium current collectors in an LIB can be subject dissolution or other reactions with electrolytes. Corrosion these metal f...
