Electrodes for Li-Ion Batteries

Materials, Mechanisms and Performance

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The electrochemical energy storage is a means to conserve electrical energy in chemical form. This form of storage benefits from the fact that these two energies share the same vector, the electron. This advantage allows us to limit the losses related to the conversion of energy from one form to another. The RS2E focuses its research on rechargeable electrochemical devices (or electrochemical storage) batteries and supercapacitors. The materials used in the electrodes are key components of lithium-ion batteries. Their nature depend battery performance in terms of mass and volume capacity, energy density, power, durability, safety, etc. This book deals with current and future positive and negative electrode materials covering aspects related to research new and better materials for future applications (related to renewable energy storage and transportation in particular), bringing light on the mechanisms of operation, aging and failure.

Autorenporträt

Laure Monconduit is CNRS Senior Researcher at the Charles Gerhardt Institute, at the University of Montpellier in France. Her current research directions include the synthesis and characterization of new electrode materials for Li-ion and post-Li systems (Na, Mg-ion). Laurence Croguennec is CNRS Senior Researcher at ICMCB in Bordeaux, France. Her research is focused on the field of electrode materials for Li and Na-ion batteries: crystal chemistry of oxides and phosphates, and the characterization of mechanisms involved in cycling. Rémi Dedryvère is Professor at the University of Pau in France, at the IPREM Institute. His research activities are focused on electrode/electrolyte interfaces in Li-ion, Na-ion and Li-sulfur batteries, with the characterization of passivation layers and aging processes. The three authors are strongly involved in the French and European networks on the electrochemical storage of energy, RS2E and ALISTORE-ERI, respectively.
