Microstructure Scale Lithium-Ion Battery Modeling: Part II. On In-Plane Heterogeneities and the Mechanisms that Regulate Them

Li-ion batteries performance and degradation are typically modeled at the macroscopic scale, that is neglecting in-plane heterogeneities that can arise from non-uniform electrode microstructures. Herein, a microstructure scale electrochemical model is used to quantify the impact of microstructure heterogeneity on cell performance during fast charging. The model predicts the electrolyte and solid concentration in-plane standard deviation can reach, respectively, ≈200 mol·m −3 and 6–7 kmol·m −3 locally. Further, the intercalation current density in-plane relative standard deviation can reach extremely high values, around 100% in the cathode and well above 100% in the anode graphite. These denote highly non-uniform lithiation rates and material utilization within each slice of the microstructure along the cell thickness. Non-uniform curvatures, at the particle scale (surface roughness) and between particles (size distribution), were found to initiate these in-plane heterogeneities, while an OCP-induced mechanism subsequently regulates them. The present model provides new insights into small length scale heterogeneity impact on battery performance not available with standard macro-scale/P2D modeling.

Microstructure Scale Lithium-Ion Battery Modeling: Part III. When and Where Lithium Plating Occurs and its Correlation with the Electrode Microstructure

Li-ion battery performance and degradation are closely related to the cell’s underlying electrode microstructure. Electrode microstructures are typically characterized with volume-averaged properties that neglect the impact of local heterogeneities. However, local heterogeneities create hot spots that can trigger degradation onset. Herein, a microstructure scale electrochemical model is used to investigate the impact of microstructure heterogeneity on lithium plating. The model predicts lithium plating is not uniform, even when considering a relatively small portion of the electrode (a cross-sectional area of 154×144 µm 2 ), preferring to plate on larger particles as compared to smaller particles. While local heterogeneities control where plating occurs, the model predicts that volume-averaged properties control when plating occurs. Additionally, the model predicts that the active material specific surface area has a linear relationship with the plating onset. However, the linear relationship between increased active material surface area and delayed plating response appears to be sensitive to the microstructure feature used to increase the active interface area. Here, a comparative case-study is explored where the specific surface area is increased by either reducing the active material particle diameter, adding open-porosity cracks, or increasing the active material surface roughness. The model predicts that increasing the specific surface area by reducing the active material particle diameter is the most effective strategy for delaying lithium plating. At 6C, reducing particle size is shown to be 3 and 20 times more effective than, respectively, adding open-porosity cracks and increasing surface roughness. A dual-layer electrode architecture combining gradations both for average properties and uniformities is eventually proposed to improve homogeneous material utilization and reduce degradation at high charge rates.

Multi-phase characterization of pitch-carbon coated nano-silicon anodes for lithium-ion batteries

Silicon (Si) is a leading next-generation Li-ion battery anode candidate that meets rigorous performance demands for portable power including enhanced power and energy density with robust cycling performance. However, a series of complex and interrelated reactions lead to reduced calendar life in Si-containing systems and therefore challenge practical adoption. In the present work, we probe the mechanisms underlying observed performance improvements by adding a pitch-carbon coating onto nano-Si material. We pair solid-phase (X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared), semi-volatile phase (solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry), and gas-phase (gas chromatography-flame-ionization detector) characterization signals to comprehensively evaluate the impact of pitch-carbon coating on the evolution of the Si solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) and the associated impacts on electrode/electrolyte reactivity. The pitch-carbon is found to serve as a physicochemical barrier, reducing the electro-active surface area for Si/electrolyte reactivity and preventing Si oxidation. Further, the pitch-carbon coating promotes the evolution of a more-favorable SEI by subsuming substantial functionality typically associated with the fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) electrolyte additive - such as alkoxide scavenging and suppression of transesterification pathways - and by shifting the competitive electrolyte degradation pathways' favorability. The multi-phase characterization approach enables holistic end-products evaluation from complex (electro)chemical interfacial reactions, which informs a robust interpretation of the carbon coating's role in electrochemical performance improvements. The present mechanistic evaluation aids the rational design for improved nano-Si materials.

Particle‐Size‐Dependent Lithium‐Ion Transport in PEO/LLZO Composite Electrolytes

Lithium-metal batteries with solid electrolytes can deliver higher energy density and improved safety than conventional Li-ion batteries. Among solid electrolyte candidates, polymer/ceramic composite electrolytes are attractive because they combine polymer flexibility with the high ionic conductivity of ceramics. However, whether ceramic fillers synergistically reduce polarization losses in the polymer matrix remains unclear. A central unknown is the critical polymer/ceramic interfacial resistance (Rint,crit), below which adding ceramics lowers electrolyte overpotential. Here, we present the first macroscale model framework to quantify R int,crit for composite electrolytes based on polyethylene oxide (PEO) and Ta-doped Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 (LLZO). A 1D model for DC-polarization of tri-layer cells (PEO-LiTFSI/LLZO/PEO-LiTFSI) shows that LLZO surface functionalization reduces the PEO/LLZO interfacial resistance, consistent with electrochemical impedance measurements. Extending to a 2D composite model, we show notably that Rint,crit scales linearly with LLZO particle diameter and shifts toward experimentally accessible values (e.g., 28.8 Ωcm 2 ) as particle size increases. At fixed ceramic volume fraction, larger LLZO particles reduce the number of interfacial crossings, driving more current through the ceramic phase and lowering concentration polarization. In contrast, R int,crit is largely independent of ceramic volume fraction. These results demonstrate that ceramic filler-size engineering can enable synergistic, energy-efficient transport in polymer/ceramic composite electrolytes.

Tailored Solvent Treatment for Optimized Production of Upcycled Anodes from End-Of-Life Li-Ion Batteries

Recycling processes for lithium-ion batteries typically overlook graphite because of its lower market value relative to that of transition-metal-containing cathode materials. However, graphite recovered from cycled lithium-ion batteries holds additional engineered value associated with the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI). The SEI contributes critical electronic passivation of the graphite surface but becomes highly resistive with extended cycling, yielding poor cell performance. In this work, we apply tailored solvent treatment to end-of-life (EOL) graphite anodes to selectively remove adverse SEI components while retaining beneficially passivating species. We evaluate a series of polar protic solvents to achieve targeted removal of SEI components and control selectivity through rational variation in solvent properties. The physiochemical properties of treatment solvents correlate with both the retained SEI composition and the corresponding electrochemical performance of solvent-treated “upcycled” graphite anodes. Within the initial set of solvents evaluated, top-performing candidates show capacity and Coulombic efficiency nearly equivalent to those of an analogous pristine anode, as well as promising electrochemical performance enhancement with regard to irreversible capacity-loss metrics. This study establishes critical design principles for an optimized anode upcycling method that enhances the value of recycled graphite by retaining and upgrading the SEI.

Laser ablation of high-loading Li-ion battery electrodes improves accessible capacity and cycle life for Behind-the-Meter Storage

Adoption of Behind-the-Meter Storage (BTMS) requires design of batteries that enable high safety, long cycle life, and low cost at the system level. Pairing Li 4 Ti 5 O 12 (LTO) with LiMn 2 O 4 (LMO) achieves targets related to safety and cycle life, but these materials' low energy densities contribute to higher cost at the system scale. Increasing electrode loading is a simple approach to improve energy density, but comes with a trade-off in electrode utilization due to long, tortuous Li + diffusion pathways. Here, laser ablation is used to microstructure (pattern) high-loading electrodes to enhance electrode performance through improved Li + diffusion pathways. Four cell types, comprising combinations of standard or patterned anode and cathode, were prepared to evaluate the effects of laser ablation at each electrode. A rate test shows that patterning electrodes enhances active material utilization at ≳1C rates. Patterning the cathode yields the most benefit, as cells with a patterned cathode demonstrate a ~20% higher accessible capacity than those without at 1.4C. Additionally, 1C capacity retention of cells with patterned cathode (91% through 3000 cycles) is significantly improved over cells with only the anode patterned (64%) and non-patterned electrodes (50%). Characterization of post-mortem cells before and after refreshing their electrolyte suggests that 1C capacity retention is improved by mitigation of electrode "dry-out". We hypothesize that the microstructure acts as a reservoir of additional electrolyte, or a path for gas to escape, so that active material remains wetted throughout long-term cycling, and/or the microstructure may reduce localized, gas-forming overpotentials in the high-loading electrode.

Data mining the missing ordered phases of Li/Na metal oxides

Data-driven discovery of Li-ion and Na-ion battery materials has been pioneered by generic materials data platforms such as the Materials Project. After decades of progress, it is timely to ask whether there remain underexplored compositional spaces. Here, in this work, we present a systematic data-mining effort to uncover missing ordered binary, ternary and quaternary Li/Na-containing metal oxides using high-throughput density functional theory (DFT). Building on 19,120 stable and metastable oxides entries from the Materials Project, we performed 13,245 additional calculations through isovalent substitutions of known ground states, experimentally reported compounds, and specific prototype structures. Our study identifies 36 new ground states within the GGA/GGA + U convex hull and 45 within the r 2 SCAN convex hull. Additionally, we identified 840 metastable compounds from GGA/GGA + U and 979 from r 2 SCAN that are absent in the present Materials Project databases. Moreover, we have tripled the metastable materials in compositional spaces with a molar ratio of cation/anion >1, highlighting the overlooked opportunities in this compositional space.

Design of robust and versatile hydrocarbon-based single-ion-conducting polymer electrolytes

Hydrocarbon-based polymers offer several advantages, including lower environmental impacts, cost effectiveness, and the ability to finely tune properties. Here, we have developed trifluoromethanesulfonimide (TFSI)-functionalized poly(norbornene) (PNB) polymers utilizing a specifically designed oxa-Michael addition of a vinyl TFSI anion to an alcohol. Our results reveal that PNB-TFSI derivatives exhibit superior thermal stability and mechanical robustness compared with Nafion. The optimized PNB-TFSI-H-48 polymer (IEC 1.86 mmol/g) exhibits equivalent performance to Nafion as an anode ionomer in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Exchanging the counter ion to Li + enables PNB-TFSI to be used for Li-ion battery applications. Propylene carbonate plasticized PNB-TFSI derivatives achieve an Li-ion conductivity of over 10 −5 S/cm at 30°C. This Li polymer electrolyte exhibits excellent electrochemical stability (5 V vs. Li + /Li) and good cycling in a Li symmetric cell. These results highlight the potential and rational design of PNB-TFSI polymers for next-generation energy storage and conversion technologies.

Toward High-Voltage Cathodes for Zinc-Ion Batteries: Discovery Pipeline and Material Design Rules

Efficient energy storage systems are crucial to address the intermittency of renewable energy sources. As multivalent batteries, Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs), while inherently low voltage, offer a promising low-cost alternative to Li-ion batteries due to the viable use of zinc as the anode. However, to maximize the potential impact of ZIBs, rechargeable cathodes with improved Zn diffusion are needed. To better understand the chemical and structural factors influencing Zn-ion mobility within battery electrode materials, we employ a high-throughput computational screening approach to systematically evaluate candidate intercalation hosts for ZIB cathodes, expanding the chemical search space on empty intercalation hosts that do not contain Zn. We leverage a high-throughput screening funnel to identify promising cathodes in ZIBs, integrating screening criteria with density functional theory (DFT)-based calculations of Zn2+ intercalation and diffusion inside the host materials. Using these data, we identify the design principles that favor Zn-ion mobility in candidate cathode materials. Building on previous work on divalent-ion cathodes, this study broadens the chemical space for next-generation multivalent energy storage systems.

Weakly Solvating Electrolyte to Enable Lithium- and Manganese-Rich Cathode-Based Li-Ion Batteries

Traditional ethylene carbonate (EC)-based electrolytes exhibit strong solvation power at the surface of the layered transition metal oxide cathodes, which accelerates transition metal dissolution. The subsequent migration and deposition of dissolved transition metal species on the anode surface lead to significant capacity fading. To overcome this difficulty, we report a weakly solvating, all-fluorinated electrolyte designed to mitigate transition metal dissolution. For the first time, the role of electrolyte solvation in suppressing transition metal dissolution is systematically investigated. The tailored electrolyte significantly reduces transition metal dissolution and enhances the electrochemical performance of Li- and Mn-rich (LMR) cathode/graphite cells. This solvation-modulating strategy offers a broadly applicable framework for stabilizing interphases in other earth-abundant cathode chemistries, which similarly demand kinetic protection against interfacial degradation.

Topotaxially grown composite cathodes for cobalt-free high-energy long-life Li-ion batteries

The vehicle industry’s increasing demand for electrification necessitates the removal of expensive and rare cobalt from current high-energy batteries. However, eliminating cobalt poses challenges due to its vital role in maintaining the layered structural ordering and cycling stability of commonly used Li(NiMnCo)O 2 cathodes. As an alternative to conventional layered oxide designs, we report a lithium nickelate cathode with a composite structure comprising major stoichiometric layered and minor rocksalt phases within the same oxygen lattice. This material outperforms conventional designs by maintaining stable battery operation at voltages up to 4.8 V vs. Li|Li + , with 88% capacity retention after 1000 cycles at 2C. The topotaxial-growth-enabled interlock between the two components mitigates chemo-mechanical degradation, offering a promising pathway to cobalt-free cathodes. Additionally, we reveal a miscibility gap in the Li-Ni-O system that enables kinetic adjustment of composition and structure during sintering, thereby tuning the functionality of high-energy cathodes.

Mechanistic insight into the effects of A-site doping in perovskite nanorods on interfacial Li-ion and Na-ion transport in polymer–perovskite composite electrolytes

Composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs) offer a promising pathway to safer and higher energy density electrochemical energy storage yet optimizing interfacial ion transport remains a critical challenge due to high resistances and a lack of understanding of the complex interfacial electrostatic interactions. This work investigates the mechanistic origins of the interfacial ion transport enhancement in single-ion conducting (SIC) polymer electrolytes filled with A-site disordered perovskite LaxMyTiOz (LMTO) (M = Li, Na, K) nanorods. By integrating Density Functional Theory (DFT) with broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) and pulsed-field-gradient NMR (PFG-NMR), we analyze the ion transport behavior in Li-based and Na-based SIC systems containing compositionally distinct LMTO fillers (LMTO800 and LMTO900). Specifically, we introduce the site-to-site energy difference (ΔE) descriptor, which extends beyond single-site descriptors such as adsorption energy and ion binding energies. We demonstrate that ΔE together with ion binding energies provide a more comprehensive picture of the energy landscape at the polymer–ceramic interface. The combined DFT and experimental results show that A-site doping in the ceramic filler can effectively modulate ΔE and ion binding energies, creating a favorable potential energy landscape that promotes enhanced ion transport along the interface. This comprehensive study illustrates the impact of ceramic compositional tuning on interfacial ion transport and provides materials design rules towards real-world applications.

Fast lithium ion diffusion in brownmillerite Li x Sr 2 Co 2 O 5

Transition metal oxides not only exhibits novel magnetic properties but also provides outstanding ionic transports. Ionic conductors have great potential for interesting tunable physical properties via ionic liquid gating and novel energy storage applications such as all-solid-state lithium batteries. In particular, low migration barriers and high hopping attempt frequency are the keys to achieve fast ion diffusion in solids. Taking advantage of the oxygen-vacancy channel in Li x Sr 2 Co 2 O 5 , we show that migration barriers of lithium ion are as small as 0.28–0.17 eV depending on the lithium concentration rates. Our first-principles calculation also investigated hopping attempt frequency and concluded the room temperature ionic diffusivity and ion conductivity are high as 10 −7 –10 −6 cm 2 s −1 and 10 −3 –10 −2 Scm −1 , respectively, which outperform most of perovskite-type, garnet-type, and sulfide Li-ion solid-state electrolytes. This work proves Li x Sr 2 Co 2 O 5 as a promising super-ionic conductor.

Disentangling cation effects on ion mobility and structure in ionic liquid electrolytes

Ionic liquids (ILs) are low-temperature molten salts, where ion transport is primarily governed by ion–ion interactions. Yet, the impact of organic IL cations on critical electrolyte properties such as ion dissociation and overall transport behavior in lithium-salt-doped ILs remains poorly understood. Moreover, despite their critical role in designing IL-based electrolytes for energy storage applications, ion–ion interactions and ion-specific transport under an applied electrical potential are seldom quantified, largely due to the unique experimental and computational challenges involved. Herein, we compare transport properties obtained using 1 H, 7 Li, and 19 F pulsed-field gradient nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrophoretic NMR (eNMR) with those measured by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (MD) simulations and eNMR confirm the presence of negatively charged [Li(TFSI) n ] (1−n) aggregates that migrate towards the positive electrode, resulting in negative lithium transference numbers. Equilibrium MD simulations reveal a vehicular Li ion transport mechanism facilitated by long-lived aggregates with Li + cations strongly bound to multiple TFSI − anions. Finally, we observe an inverse relationship between the apparent charge of the TFSI − anion in the neat IL, which is dictated by the IL cation, and Li + transport in the salt-doped systems. This highlights the opportunity to tune electrolyte performance by tailoring cation chemistry.

Anion sublattice design enables superionic conductivity in crystalline oxyhalides

Solid-state batteries are attractive energy storage systems as a result of their inherent safety, but their development hinges on advanced solid-state electrolytes (SSEs). Most SSEs remain largely confined to single-anion systems (e.g., sulfides, oxides, halides, and polymers). Through mixed-anion design strategy, we develop crystalline Li 3 Ta 3 O 4 Cl 10 (LTOC) and its derivatives with excellent ionic conductivities (up to 13.7 millisiemens per centimeter at 25°C) and electrochemical stability. The LTOC structure features mixed-anion spiral chains, consisting of corner-shared oxygen and terminal chlorine atoms, which induces continuous “tetrahedron-tetrahedron” Li-ion migration pathways with low energy barriers. Additionally, LTOC demonstrates holistic cathode compatibility, enabling solid-state batteries operation at 4.9 volts versus Li/Li + and low temperature, down to −50°C. In conclusion, these findings describe a promising class of superionic conductors for high-performance solid-state batteries.

Impact of Testing Method on Safety Assessment of Aged Li-Ion Cells: Part II – Aged Cells Without Li Plating

Understanding the safety profile of aged Li-ion batteries is essential for developing effective battery management and hazard mitigation strategies. However, most safety assessments have focused on fresh batteries, with just a few calorimetry studies on aged batteries with metal oxide positive electrodes. This study provides a broad assessment of commercial 18650-type Li-ion batteries with NCA, NMC, and LFP positive electrodes, both uncycled and aged under conditions that promoted solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) growth as the dominant degradation mechanism. The cells underwent mechanical (nail penetration, crush), electrical (overcharge, overdischarge), and thermal (accelerating rate calorimetry) abuse tests. Safety was rated on general characteristics such as mass loss, maximum temperature, and EUCAR (European Council for Automotive R&D) hazard level, as well as characteristics specific to individual abuse tests. Generally, aged cells with SEI growth exhibited similar or improved safety compared to uncycled cells, contrasting with our previous findings on NCA cells with Li plating as the dominant aging mechanism (Part I of this series). Yet, some tests and characteristics indicated reduced aged cell safety, such as earlier triggering of mechanical failure. These results emphasize the need to examine aged battery safety across diverse empirical techniques, degradation modes, and chemistries.

Capacity Gain in Li-Ion Cells with Silicon-Containing Electrodes

Silicon-containing lithium-ion batteries can exhibit capacity gain early in life, which makes forecasting future cell behavior difficult. We have observed these anomalous trends even in conditions where known mechanisms, such as overhang equalization and excessive electrolyte oxidation, are unlikely to be significant. Here, we combine simulations and experiments to analyze four cases that can produce increased capacity in Si cells. Three of these pathways relate to “break-in” processes, where improved mass and charge transport can lead to increased access to active electrode domains and decreased cell impedance. The fourth case occurs at high levels of prelithiation, when the positive electrode (PE) is completely replenished with Li + at the end of cell discharge. We show that the commonality among these mechanisms is that the underlying transformations change the potentials experienced by electrodes at the end of half-cycles, increasing the Li + inventory available to the cell. A quantitative framework to describe these effects is presented, enabling these ideas to be extended to other battery systems.

In-Situ FTIR Detection of Transition Metal (TM)-Ion Dissolution From Cathodes in Li-Ion Batteries

Transition metal (TM) ions, commonly Ni and Mn, play a crucial role in Li-ion battery cathodes as the reaction centers for rapid redox reactions. A major challenge with TM-based cathodes is capacity degradation, particularly at higher operating voltages. This degradation is closely linked to the dissolution of TMs from the cathode materials and their subsequent deposition on the anode. This process not only modifies the surface structure of the cathode but, more significantly, alters the SEI composition on the anode [1-2]. The dissolution of TMs cations into a liquid electrolyte from cathode materials, such as Mn-ion dissolution from Mn-rich cathode (LMR), is detrimental to the cycling performance of Li-ion batteries [3-4]. Much attention has been paid to this issue but there remains a lack of characterization techniques which can detect the TM-ion dissolution from the cathode during electrochemical measurements. In our study, we use in-situ ATR-FTIR as an effective technique to probe the TM-ion dissolution from the cathode. We have first demonstrated the detrimental effects of TM ions on the electrochemical performance of Li-ion batteries by adding a small amount of TM salt (50 mM Mn(PF6)) to the electrolyte of a Li-ion coin cell with LFP and graphite electrode. We observed a rapid capacity fade after the first delithiation cycle. To investigate TM ion dissolution, we established a baseline IR spectrum for various TM solvation states (such as Mn and Ni) by measuring concentration-dependent IR spectra. This baseline spectrum helps us detect TM ion dissolution during battery cycling. In this work, we discuss in detail the effect of TM ions on the electrochemical performance of Li-ion batteries and the detection of TM ions during battery cycling using in-situ FTIR spectroscopy. We will compare TM dissolution between coated and uncoated cathodes to examine the effect of cathode coatings to mitigate degradation due to TM dissolution and cross-over from cathode to anode.
