Degradation Mechanism of Phosphate‐Based Li‐NASICON Conductors in Alkaline Environment

NASICON-type Li conductors (Li-NASICON) have traditionally been regarded as promising candidates for solid-state Li-air battery applications because of their stability in water and ambient air. However, the presence of water in the cathode of a Li-air battery can induce a highly alkaline environment by modifying the discharge product from Li 2 O 2 to LiOH which can potentially degrade cathode and separator materials. This study investigates the alkaline stability of common Li-NASICON chemistries through a systematic experimental study of LiTi x Ge 2-x (PO 4 ) 3 (LTGP) with varying x = 0–2.0. Density functional theory calculations are combined to gain a mechanistic understanding of the alkaline instability. It is demonstrated that the instability of LTGP in an alkaline environment is mainly driven by the dissolution of PO 4 3– groups, which subsequently precipitate as Li 3 PO 4 . The introduction of Ti facilitates the formation of a Ti-rich compound on the surface that eventually passivates the material, but only after significant bulk degradation. Consequently, phosphate-based Li-NASICON materials exhibit limited alkaline stability, raising concerns about their viability in humid Li-air batteries.

Nondestructive flash cathode recycling

Effective recycling of end-of-life Li-ion batteries (LIBs) is essential due to continuous accumulation of battery waste and gradual depletion of battery metal resources. The present closed-loop solutions include destructive conversion to metal compounds, by destroying the entire three-dimensional morphology of the cathode through continuous thermal treatment or harsh wet extraction methods, and direct regeneration by lithium replenishment. Here, we report a solvent- and water-free flash Joule heating (FJH) method combined with magnetic separation to restore fresh cathodes from waste cathodes, followed by solid-state relithiation. The entire process is called flash recycling. This FJH method exhibits the merits of milliseconds of duration and high battery metal recovery yields of ~98%. After FJH, the cathodes reveal intact core structures with hierarchical features, implying the feasibility of their reconstituting into new cathodes. Relithiated cathodes are further used in LIBs, and show good electrochemical performance, comparable to new commercial counterparts. Life-cycle-analysis highlights that flash recycling has higher environmental and economic benefits over traditional destructive recycling processes.

Searching for a Pulse: Evaluating the Use of Rapid DC Pulses for Diagnosing Battery Health, State-of-Charge, and Safety

Rapid electrochemical diagnostics, like DC pulse sequences or electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, are known to be useful for capacity prediction. However, it is unclear how previous results will map to different cell types and use cases and whether rapid diagnostics are useful for remaining useful life prediction or for detecting potential safety issues. To that end, we have collected a data set with ∼50,000 DC pulse measurements from four types of commercial lithium-ion batteries to enable training of state-of-charge, health, and safety diagnostic models via machine-learning. We demonstrate that 120-second DC pulse sequences can be used to predict capacity with 2%–9% average error, which can separate high- from low-capacity cells with only a 0.3% false positive rate but is not accurate enough to estimate remaining useful life. We also find that no safety related targets can be accurately predicted, highlighting the critical need for other non-invasive methods to diagnose battery safety.

Beyond Local Solvation Structure: Nanometric Aggregates in Battery Electrolytes and their Effect on Electrolyte Properties

Electrolytes are an essential component of all electrochemical storage and conversion devices, such as batteries. In the history of battery development, the complex nature of electrolytes has often been a bottleneck. Fundamental knowledge of electrolyte systems encompasses elucidation of structure-property relationships of the solution species. Recently, nanometric aggregates have been observed in several classes of electrolytes, including super-concentrated, redox-flow, multivalent, polymer, and ionic liquid-based electrolytes. Compared with the well-studied local solvation structures such as contact ion pairs and solvent-separated ions, these aggregates impose unique effects on the ion distribution and transport both within bulk electrolytes and at electrode/electrolyte interfaces. This Perspective highlights the discovery of the aggregates in various battery electrolytes and their impact on electrolyte properties. We also present an outlook for future studies of this emerging field of nanometric aggregates and the need for the development of new experimental and computational tools to study their properties.

Modifying Ionogel Solid-Electrolytes for Complex Electrochemical Systems

The solution processability of ionogel solid electrolytes has recently garnered attention in the Li-ion battery community as a means to address the interface and fabrication issues commonly associated with most solid electrolytes. However, the trapped ionic liquid (ILE) component has hindered the electrochemical performance. In this report we present a process to tune the properties by replacing the ILE in a silica-based ionogel after fabrication with a liquid component befitting the desired application. Electrochemical cycling under various conditions showcases gels containing different liquid components incorporated into LiFePO4 (LFP)/gel/Li cells: high power (455 W kg –1 at a 1 C discharge) systems using carbonates, low temperatures (-40 °C) using ethers, or high temperatures (100 °C) using ionic liquids. Fabrication of additive-manufactured cells utilizing the exchanged carbonate-based system is demonstrated in a planar LFP/Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (LTO) system, where a marked improvement over an ionogel is found in terms of rate capability, capacity, and cycle stability (118 vs 41 mA h g –1 at C/4). This process represents a promising route to create a separator-less cell, potentially in complex architectures, where the electrolyte properties can be facilely tuned to meet the required conditions for a wide range of battery chemistries while maintaining a uniform electrolyte access throughout cast electrodes.

Multifunctional transitional metal-based phosphide nanoparticles towards improved polysulfide confinement and redox kinetics for highly stable lithium-sulfur batteries

The shuttle effect and the sluggish redox kinetics of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) are the major issues impeding the practical applications of lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs). Herein, a highly-efficient Ni 2 P electrocatalyst supported on N, P co-doped graphene (Ni 2 P@NPG) is developed via a simple “recrystallization-self-assembly” method to address the above issues. Here, the ultrafine Ni 2 P nanoparticles ensure abundant adsorption-diffusion-conversion interfaces for accelerating LiPSs transformation and Li 2 S deposition, which extremely decreases the accumulation of LiPSs in the electrolyte and therefore prevents the migration of LiPSs. Their superior catalytic performance is demonstrated by reduced Gibbs free energy changes of rate-limiting step based on the systematic theoretical calculations and the reduced shuttle effect is tested by the three-dimensional reconstructions of Raman depth profiles. Benefiting from these synergistic effects, the LSBs with Ni 2 P@NPG modified separators present a superior cycling performance with an average capacity decay rate of 0.048 % per cycle at 1C around the 400 cycles and a high-rate capacity of 731 mAh/g at 2C. Even with a high-sulfur loading of 3.53 mg cm –2 , the cell can still contain a reversible capacity of 809 mAh/g at 0.2C with a remarkable columbic efficiency of 98.4 %.

Impacts of Lanthanum Impurities on Nickel-Rich Cathode Materials

The widespread use of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has led to environmental concerns and exacerbated the scarcity of essential minerals, underscoring the urgent need for effective recycling strategies. Among various recycling methods, the hydrometallurgical process is distinguished by its energy efficiency and minimal environmental impact. Nickel-metal hydride (Ni-MH) batteries are a significant source of nickel sulfate (NiSO 4 ) for hydrometallurgical recycling due to their substantial nickel content. A significant challenge arises from the effective separation of lanthanum (La), which results in at least 20 ppm of La being present in the recycled NiSO 4 . This study explores a critical aspect of the recycling process: the impact of La 3+ impurities, introduced through recycled NiSO 4 , on the performance of the synthesized nickel-rich cathode materials. We conducted a thorough investigation into how La 3+ influences morphology and structural integrity during both the synthesis of precursors and the production of cathode materials. Our findings indicate that La 3+ impurities do not adversely affect the morphology or structural integrity of the cathode precursors relative to virgin materials. However, higher concentrations of La 3+ reduce the discharge capacity with enhanced cycle stability by minimizing cation mixing between lithium (Li + ) and nickel (Ni 2+ ) ions within the cathode. Furthermore, this stability is crucial for extending battery life. Therefore, controlling the concentration of La 3+ impurities is essential for optimizing the electrochemical performance of recycled cathode materials.

Rechargeable alkaline zinc–manganese oxide batteries for grid storage: Mechanisms, challenges and developments

Rechargeable alkaline Zn–MnO 2 (RAM) batteries are a promising candidate for grid-scale energy storage owing to their high theoretical energy density rivaling lithium-ion systems (~400 Wh/L), relatively safe aqueous electrolyte, established supply chain, and projected costs below $100/kWh at scale. In practice, however, many fundamental chemical and physical processes at both electrodes make it difficult to achieve commercially competitive energy density and cycle life. In this paper, we present a detailed and timely analysis of the constituent materials, current commercial status, electrode processes, and performance-limiting factors of RAM batteries. We also examine recently reported strategies in RAM and related systems to address these issues through additives and modifications to the electrode materials and electrolyte, special ion-selective separators and/or coatings, and unconventional cycling protocols. We conclude with a critical summary of these developments and discussion of how future studies should be focused toward the goal of energy-dense, scalable, and cost-effective RAM systems.

Electrochemical-Mechanical Coupling Strongly Affects the Performance of Nanopore, Thin-Film, and Solid-State Batteries

Here, the present study focuses on the electrochemical-mechanical (ECM) coupling effects of a thin-film, solid-state battery with only stiff, ceramic materials, in contrast to prior investigations that focus on individual active material particles or aggregations of particles. We model the impacts of ECM couplings including stress-transport and stress-equilibrium potential on the full-cell performance and potential mechanical failure modes of a thin-film battery conformally deposited in a nanopore scaffold, which is an experimentally achievable device. Model results indicate electrode volume changes due to lithium insertion or removal, along with mechanical boundary conditions, result in stress gradients that alter the lithium-ion flux, reduce lithium concentration gradients, and improve cell rate capability. However, the high stress levels in the cell can also lead to mechanics-related failure such as the separation of cell layers. For the parameter set in this work, stress-transport coupling has a much greater influence on rate capability than stress-potential coupling. Optimization of thin-film batteries to harness the benefits of ECM coupling effects requires leveraging geometric design and material selection. The current work underscores the need for further theoretical and experimental investigation into ECM coupling effects in thin-film batteries to enhance their understanding and design optimization.

Spin State Modulation via Magnetic Fields in Fe Single Atom Catalysts for High-Performance Aqueous Zinc–Sulfur Batteries

Aqueous zinc–sulfur battery has garnered significant attention as a high-energy, low-cost, and safe energy storage system. However, the multielectron transfer kinetics of sulfur cathodes are relatively slow, presenting challenges such as limited sulfur utilization and lower discharge voltage, which significantly hinder their practical applications. Here, in this study, we explored a comprehensive design approach for high-performance, long-cycle aqueous zinc–sulfur batteries. The simultaneous introduction of ZnI 2 and Fe single atoms (Fe-SAs) as catalytically active agents decouples the redox reactions, effectively facilitating ZnS oxidation and S reduction separately. The application of an external magnetic field regulates the spin state of Fe-SAs, further enhancing their catalytic activity and electron transfer capability. Electrochemical tests demonstrate that the S@Fe-NC HS/ZnI 2 cathode assembled under a magnetic field exhibits excellent rate performance, achieving an impressive specific capacity of 1399 mAh g –1 at a high current density of 5 A g –1 and good cycling stability over 300 cycles, representing the highest reported high-current discharge capacity to date. This study provides a comprehensive design framework for optimizing zinc–sulfur (Zn–S) battery performance and elucidates the influence of magnetic field-induced spin state modulation on catalytic behavior.

Energy Arbitrage: Comparison of Options for use with LWR Nuclear Power Plants

Arbitrage is the opportunistic buying and selling of a commodity during local pricing valleys and peaks respectively to maximize economic value. This report evaluates options for energy arbitrage integrated with existing light water reactor (LWR) nuclear power plants (NPPs) where nuclear energy could be stored in a variety of forms and later recovered to generate electrical power during periods when grid electricity demand and pricing are high. The forms of energy storage examined in this report include the potential value of batteries, hydrogen, and thermal energy storage for coupling with nuclear power. Various large demand response options are also analyzed, including the production of liquid nitrogen via air separation and liquefaction, liquefaction of hydrogen, compressed hydrogen, and the cryogenic capture of CO2. Demand response refers to dispatchable loads that can cycle up or down depending on-grid electricity demand to aid in balancing the grid. Large demand response options could dispatch to aid nuclear power stations in avoiding power turndowns by providing an alternate disposition for electrical energy by producing marketable products (e.g., liquid nitrogen, hydrogen, or captured CO2). Static conditions were chosen and analyzed in this report for each option. Dynamic operation or optimization of energy arbitrage or demand response are out of scope for this report. The analysis is based on storage systems with discharge capacities of 500 MW for which various durations of storage and costs of charging (electricity cost) are examined. While the value of thermal energy to an industrial user for flexible plant operations has been previously proven as a business case, this report evaluates costs of hydrogen energy storage and leading thermal energy storage options, and large demand response loads that could be integrated with LWRs in comparison to utility-scale battery storage for use of off-peak nuclear energy. Compilation of this information will be used by the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) RAVEN/HERON systems integration and economics tool to evaluate thermal energy dispatch to industrial users. Relative ranking of energy storage options was done using a levelized cost of storage (LCOS) metric which calculates a rough breakeven cost for the system, taking into account the capital and operating costs as well as the revenue from arbitrage. Table ES1 below shows the LCOS for each of the energy storage options considered. First, in the table, lithium iron (Fe) phosphate batteries are listed as the base case for comparison against the other options. Next is hydrogen storage where most of the hydrogen analyses assumed the hydrogen to be produced using solid oxide electrolytic cell (SOEC) high temperature steam electrolysis (HTSE). The others used existing models of polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) low temperature electrolysis to produce hydrogen. HTSE performance parameters and costs were taken from existing INL models. Various means were assumed to convert the hydrogen to electricity, including PEM fuel cells (FCs) and a gas turbine mixed in a 30 vol% mixture with natural gas. Physical storage (pressure vessels) and geological storage (natural underground features) were used to store the hydrogen as noted. Geological storage is more economical, but the locations are limited because of the requirement for pre-existing geological formations that will support storage. Thermal energy storage (TES) options were also analyzed including electro-thermal energy storage (ETES) and four different liquid sensible heat TES storage media as noted (Hitec, Hitec XL, Therminol-66, and Dowtherm A). The ETES process considered was modified using existing public documentation on an Echogen process and uses a separate supercritical CO2 charge and discharge cycle with sand as the heat storage media.

Rapid Charging Made Practical in Graphite-Based Lithium Batteries: Surface-Acoustic Wave Turbulent Electrolyte Mixing to Overcome Diffusion Limited Charging Rates

One of the key limits in rapidly recharging a lithium-ion battery is the depletion of lithium ions within the electrolyte adjacent the anode during charging and long diffusion time to overcome this depletion. It also causes dendrite formation, inefficient use of the lithium, and battery degradation over many charge-discharge cycles. Because the liquid electrolyte remains quiescent and unmixed, this depletion layer's depth rapidly grows to match the anode-cathode separation distance at even modest charge rates. The solution proposed by PI Prof. James Friend and Co-PI Prof. Ping Liu, both from the University of California, San Diego, is to mix the electrolyte and minimize the Li ion concentration gradient during charging. Even in the presence of the separator, the charging rate could then be significantly increased. They propose to accomplish this using surface acoustic wave (SAW)-driven acoustic streaming, a technique employing 10-mW fingernail-sized solid-state devices from the telecommunications industry to drive turbulent mixing to submicron length scales in a manner completely compatible with the typical 20700 and 18650 cells used in electric vehicles.

Structure and Dispersion of Free and Grafted Polymer in Nanoparticle Organic Hybrid Materials-Based Solutions by Small-Angle Neutron Scattering

Liquid-like Nanoscale Organic Hybrid Materials or NOHMs consisting of polymer grafted nanoparticles have shown great promise in applications, such as electrochemistry and gas separation, due to their enhanced conductivity, tunability, and negligible vapor pressure. Recently, NOHMs are considered to be used as novel electrolytes in Redox Flow Batteries (RFBs). However, to employ NOHMs in redox flow batteries as electrolytes, it is important to understand the conformation and dispersion of NOHMs in the electrochemical milieu. In this work, we report the use of small-angle neutron scattering to probe the structure and dispersion of Jeffamine M2070 polymer grafted to a SiO 2 nanoparticle in an aqueous solution with and without the presence of a supporting electrolyte. Our results indicate that, in the aqueous environment, there exists a large amount of free polymer in the solution that is not grafted to the functionalized nanoparticles. These protonated free polymers, dispersed in the aqueous solvent, may also strongly interact with the grafted polymer layer and greatly affect the neat structure of NOHMs. Thus, there also exist polymers identified as “interacting” polymers to distinguish them from tethered or truly free polymers in the fluid system. The presence of supporting electrolyte shows a greater effect on the structure of NOHMs-based fluid as it not only alters the structure of the free polymer but also hinders the interaction of the polymer with the functionalized nanoparticles. Moreover, the change in the interaction of the Jeffamine M2070 with the functionalized nanoparticles due to the addition of supporting electrolyte has revealed a drastic change in the viscosities of NOHM solutions. Overall, the dispersion of the free polymer, the interaction of the interacting polymer with grafted polymer, and the change in conformation of free polymer and grafted layers with the addition of supporting electrolyte provide valuable insight into the overall scenario of the electrochemical environment of NOHMs. These results can be applied to fine-tune the structure of liquid-like NOHMs and will aid in a better understanding of their performance as potential electrolytes in RFBs.

Imaging Phase Segregation in Nanoscale Li x CoO 2 Single Particles

Li x CoO 2 (LCO) is a common battery cathode material that has recently emerged as a promising material for other applications including electrocatalysis and as electrochemical random access memory (ECRAM). During charge– discharge cycling LCO exhibits phase transformations that are significantly complicated by electron correlation. While the bulk phase diagram for an ensemble of battery particles has been studied extensively, it remains unclear how these phases scale to nanometer dimensions and the effects of strain and diffusional anisotropy at the single-particle scale. Understanding these effects is critical to modeling battery performance and for predicting the scalability and performance of electrocatalysts and ECRAM. Here we investigate isolated, epitaxial LiCoO 2 islands grown by pulsed laser deposition. After electrochemical cycling of the islands, conductive atomic force microscopy (c-AFM) is used to image the spatial distribution of conductive and insulating phases. Above 20 nm island thicknesses, we observe a kinetically arrested state in which the phase boundary is perpendicular to the Li-planes; we propose a model and present image analysis results that show smaller LCO islands have a higher conductive fraction than larger area islands, and the overall conductive fraction is consistent with the lithiation state. Thinner islands (14 nm), with a larger surface to volume ratio, are found to exhibit a striping pattern, which suggests surface energy can dominate below a critical dimension. When increasing force is applied through the AFM tip to strain the LCO islands, significant shifts in current flow are observed, and underlying mechanisms for this behavior are discussed. The c-AFM images are compared with photoemission electron microscopy images, which are used to acquire statistics across hundreds of particles. Finally, the results indicate that strain and morphology become more critical to electrochemical performance as particles approach nanometer dimensions.
