Electrodes for Li-Ion Batteries: Materials, Mechanisms and Performance

By Remi Dedryv?re, Laure Monconduit, Laurence Croguennec, et al.

The electrochemical energy storage is a means to conserveelectrical energy in chemical form. This form of storage benefitsfrom the fact that these two energies share the same vector, theelectron. This advantage allows us to limit the losses related tothe conversion of energy from one form to another. The RS2Efocuses its research on rechargeable electrochemical devices (orelectrochemical storage) batteries and supercapacitors.

The materials used in the electrodes are key components oflithium-ion batteries. Their nature depend battery performance interms of mass and volume capacity, energy density, power, durability, safety, etc. This book deals with current and futurepositive and negative electrode materials covering aspects relatedto research new and better materials for future applications(related to renewable energy storage and transportation inparticular), bringing light on the mechanisms of operation, agingand failure.
