The rechargeable lithium ion (Li-ion) battery market was $11.8 billion in 2011 and is expected to increase $50 by 2020. With developments consumer electronics as well hybrid electric vehicles, Li-ion batteries demand will continue increase. However, are not widely recycled because currently it economically justifiable (in contrast, at present more than 97% lead-acid recycled). So far, no commercial methods available recycle with different cathode chemistries efficiently. Considering our...

Abstract Lithium ion battery electrodes were manufactured using a new, completely dry powder painting process. The solvents used for conventional slurry-cast have been removed. Thermal activation time has greatly reduced due to the and resource demanding solvent evaporation process needed with electrode manufacturing being replaced by hot rolling It found that thermal induce mechanical bonding of thermoplastic polymer remaining active particles is only few seconds. Removing drying allows...

With the wide usage of Li-ion batteries (LIBs) in portable electronics, electric vehicles, and grid storage, recycling reusing LIBs have attracted attention. However, due to low added value rigorous separation steps, recovering graphite anode materials are discarded. Although some direct physical processes been reported, all them limited by steps lab scales. In this paper, a scalable process for from spent hydrometallurgical without is reported. After leaching process, was separated...

All-solid-state lithium batteries (ASLBs) are promising for the next generation energy storage system with critical safety. Among various candidates, thiophosphate-based electrolytes have shown great promise because of their high ionic conductivity. However, narrow operation voltage and poor compatibility cathode materials impede application in development ASLBs. In this work, we studied failure mechanism Li6PS5Cl at through situ Raman spectra investigated stability high-voltage...

There has been increasing interest in the emerging ionic thermoelectric materials with huge thermopower. However, it's challenging to selectively tune thermopower of all-solid-state polymer because transportation ions polymers is much more complex than those liquid-dominated gels. Herein, this work provides a wide tunable range (+20~-6 mV K-1), which different from previously reported Moreover, mechanism p-n conversion material at atomic scale was presented based on analysis Eastman entropy...

Anode-free lithium (Li) metal batteries are desirable candidates in pursuit of high-energy-density batteries. However, their poor cycling performances originated from the unsatisfactory reversibility Li plating/stripping remains a grand challenge. Here we show facile and scalable approach to produce high-performing anode-free using bioinspired ultrathin (250 nm) interphase layer comprised triethylamine germanate. The derived tertiary amine Lix Ge alloy showed enhanced adsorption energy that...

Anode-free lithium (Li) metal batteries are promising alternatives to current Li-ion due their advantages such as high energy density, low cost, and convenient production. However, the copper (Cu) collector accounts for more than 25 wt% of total weight anode-free battery without capacity contribution, which severely reduces power densities. Here, a new family ultralight composite collectors with areal density 0.78 mg cm
