Nanotechnology for Li-ion

Battery performance: There remains significant scope to improve and extend the application of lithium-ion batteries. John Duffy of U.K. characterization experts Malvern Panalytical and Stefan Mende of Germany’s NETZSCH Fine Grinding Technology explain the finer points of nanostructured electrode materials in Li-ion technology.

Li-ion batteries have considerable potential for use in electric vehicles and in renewable energy applications. However, current technology is nearing its performance limit. A technical breakthrough is needed to address issues associated with safety, cost, and performance, and realize the full potential of Li-ion technology.The use of nanostructured materials as electrode powders in Li-ion battery …
