Lithium-Ion Battery Chemistries: A Primer offers a simple description on how different lithium-ion battery chemistries work, along with their differences. It includes a refresher on the basics of electrochemistry and thermodynamics, a clear-and-concise description of lithium-ion chemistries and how they operate, and an understanding of the fundamental processes that occur in the lithium-ion battery. Furthermore, it reviews current chemistries, including Lithium-Iron Phosphate (LFP), Lithium-Cobalt Oxide (LCO), Lithium Manganese Oxide (LMO), Lithium-Nickel Manganese Cobalt (NMC), Lithium-Nickel Cobalt Aluminum (NCA) and outlines the differences of anodes, including Carbon (Graphite, hard carbon, soft carbon, graphene), silicon and tin. In addition, the book offers performance comparisons of different chemistries to help users select the right battery for the right application and provides explanations on why different chemistries have different performances and capabilities. Finally, a brief look at emerging and beyond-lithium chemistries, including lithium-air, zinc-air, aluminum air, solid state, lithium-sulfur, lithium-glass and lithium are covered.
