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.
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.
CR2032 lithium button cell battery Lithium 9 volt, AA, and AAA sizes. The top object is a battery of three lithium-manganese dioxide cells; the bottom two are lithium-iron disulfide cells and are compatible with 1.5-volt alkaline cells. Lithium metal batteries are primary batteries that have metallic lithium as an anode.
The lithium iron phosphate battery (LiFePO 4 battery ) or LFP battery ( lithium ferrophosphate ) is a type of lithium-ion battery using lithium iron phosphate ( LiFePO 4 ) as the cathode material, and a graphitic carbon electrode with a metallic backing as the anode .
The lithium–air battery (Li–air) is a metal–air electrochemical cell or battery chemistry that uses oxidation of lithium at the anode and reduction of oxygen at the cathode to induce a current flow. [1] Pairing lithium and ambient oxygen can theoretically lead to electrochemical cells with the highest possible specific energy.
Battery recycling is a recycling activity that aims to reduce the number of batteries being disposed as municipal solid waste.Batteries contain a number of heavy metals and toxic chemicals and disposing of them by the same process as regular household waste has raised concerns over soil contamination and water pollution.

Editor's note: Kent State lost to Buffalo 43-7 on Tuesday night to finish the season 0-12. Running back Jaylen Thomas’ 23-yard touchdown run with 2:28 left in the third quarter put the finishing ...
The third most common use of lithium is in greases. Lithium hydroxide is a strong base, and when heated with a fat, it produces a soap, such as lithium stearate from stearic acid. Lithium soap has the ability to thicken oils, and it is used to manufacture all-purpose, high-temperature lubricating greases. [21] [162] [163]
