Batteries and Fuel Cells

A battery is a galvanic cell that is used as a source of electrical power for specific applications. Modern batteries exist in a multitude of forms to accommodate various applications, from tiny button batteries such as those that power wristwatches to the very large batteries used to supply backup energy to municipal power grids. Some batteries are designed for single-use applications and cannot be recharged (primary cells), while others are based on conveniently reversible cell reactions that...

Background:

Sulfide-based all-solid-state lithium batteries (ASSLIBs) offer high power density but face limitations in fast-charging capabilities.
Reactivity between lithiated graphite and sulfide electrolytes, along with side reactions, hinders ASSLIB performance.

Purpose of the Study:

To address the limitations of graphite anodes in ASSLIBs for improved fast-charging performance.
To develop a stable anode-electrolyte interface to enhance cycling stability and rate capability.

Main Methods:

Synthesis of a lithium niobate-coated spherized natural graphite composite (LNO@SNG) using a scalable sol-gel method.
Fabrication of full cells using a LiNi0.7Co0.2Mn0.1O2 cathode and the LNO@SNG anode with Li6PS5Cl electrolyte.
Electrochemical testing to evaluate cycling stability, rate capability, and performance under various conditions.

Main Results:

The LNO@SNG anode formed an electrochemically stable interface with the Li6PS5Cl electrolyte.
Full cells demonstrated excellent cycling stability under low stack pressures (≤5 MPa) and high rates (up to 12C).
Achieved 96.5% capacity retention after 600 cycles at 4 mA·cm-2 (6C), even with high cathode loading (30.57 mg·cm-2).

Conclusions:

The surface-modified graphite anode effectively mitigates interfacial reactivity and side reactions.
The LNO@SNG anode offers a promising combination of cost-effectiveness, interfacial stability, and superior rate capability.
This development represents a significant advancement for the commercialization of ASSLIBs.
