A lithium-ion or Li-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery that uses the reversible intercalation of Li + ions into electronically conducting solids to store energy. In comparison with other commercial rechargeable batteries, Li-ion batteries are characterized by higher specific energy, higher energy density, higher energy efficiency, a longer cycle life, and a longer calendar life.
Lithium-rich clays are the third major source of lithium, although they are far less abundant than salt brines and hard-rock ores containing lithium. To be exact, lithium-rich clays make up less than 2% of the world's lithium products. [16] For comparison, brine extraction represents 39% and hard-rock ores represent 59% of the lithium ...
A cathode-flow lithium-iodine (Li–I) battery uses the triiodide/iodide (I3 − /I −) redox couple in aqueous solution.It has energy density of 0.33 kWh/kg because of the solubility of LiI in aqueous solution (≈8.2M) and its power density of 130 mW/cm 2 at a current rate of 60 mA/cm 2, 328 K.
Godshall et al. further identified the similar value of ternary compound lithium-transition metal-oxides such as the spinel LiMn 2 O 4, Li 2 MnO 3, LiMnO 2, LiFeO 2, LiFe 5 O 8, and LiFe 5 O 4 (and later lithium-copper-oxide and lithium-nickel-oxide cathode materials in 1985) [27] Godshall et al. patent U.S. patent 4,340,652 [28] for the use of ...
An 18650 battery [1] or 1865 cell [2] is a cylindrical lithium-ion battery common in electronic devices. The batteries measure 18 mm (0.71 in) in diameter by 65 mm (2.56 in) in length, giving them the name 18650. [3] The battery comes in many nominal voltages depending on the specific chemistry used.
Rechargeable lithium metal batteries are secondary lithium metal batteries.They have metallic lithium as a negative electrode.The high specific capacity of lithium metal (3,860 mAh g −1), very low redox potential (−3.040 V versus standard hydrogen electrode) and low density (0.59 g cm −3) make it the ideal negative material for high energy density battery technologies.

A lithium polymer battery, or more correctly, lithium-ion polymer battery (abbreviated as LiPo, LIP, Li-poly, lithium-poly, and others), is a rechargeable battery of lithium-ion technology using a polymer electrolyte instead of a liquid electrolyte. Highly conductive semisolid polymers form this electrolyte.
Lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxides (abbreviated NMC, Li-NMC, LNMC, or NCM) are mixed metal oxides of lithium, nickel, manganese and cobalt with the general formula LiNi x Mn y Co 1-x-y O 2. These materials are commonly used in lithium-ion batteries for mobile devices and electric vehicles , acting as the positively charged cathode .
