Batteries lithium rechargable

Secondary lithium-metal batteries which have a lithium-metal anode are attractive because their energy density is theoretically higher than that of lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-molybdenum disulfide batteries were the world s first secondary cylindrical lithium—metal batteries. However, the batteries were recalled in 1989 because of an overheating defect. Lithium-manganese dioxide batteries are the only secondary cylindrical lithium—metal batteries which are manufactured at present. Lithium-vanadium oxide batteries are being researched and developed. Furthermore, electrolytes, electrolyte additives and lithium surface treatments are being studied to improve safety and recharge-ability.

Lithium polymer electrolytes formed by dissolving a lithium salt LiX (where X is preferably a large soft anion) in poly(ethylene oxide) PEO can find useful application as separators in lithium rechargeable polymer batteries.Thin films must be used due to the relatively high ionic resistivity of these polymers. For example, the lithium-ion conductivity of PEO—Li salt complexes at 100 °C is still only about Viooth the conductivity of a typical aqueous solution. 

In lithium rechargeable batteries carbon materials are used that function as a lithium reservoir at the negative electrode. Reversible intercalation, or insertion, of lithium into the carbon host lattice avoids the problem of lithium dendrite formation and provides a large improvement in terms of cycleability and safety (111). 

There have been a number of attempts to produce commercial lithium rechargeable batteries. The V205 positive is currently used by the Matsushita Battery Industrial Co in Japan for the production of small capacity, coin-type cells. Fig. 7.24 shows a cross-section of one prototype. For the construction of the battery, V205 and carbon black are mixed together with a binder, moulded and vacuum-dried to form the positive electrode pellet. A solution of LiBF4 in a propylene carbonate-y-butyrolactone-1,2-dimethoxyethane mixture absorbed in a polypropylene separator is used as the electrolyte.

Iron vanadate, FeV04, is a prospective material for lithium rechargeable batteries and in catalysis. In [90] mechanical coactivation of iron and vanadium oxides was used to prepare intimate nanoscale mixture, similar to those prepared by soft chemistry. Reduction of this mixture at the same temperature and oxygen partial pressure conditions as of soft chemistry products (500°C and 10 Pa) leads to formation of a nanometric vanadium ferrite with the only spinel phase. The characterization of the powders thus prepared was perfomed by X-ray diffraction, SEM, IR spectrometry, thermogravimetry and colourimetry. It was shown that the homogeneity of grain size and chemical composition is achieved if the initial oxides have similar grain size.
