Large cations such as potassium ion (K+) and sodium ion (Na+) could be introduced into the lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery system during material synthesis or battery assembly. However, the effect of these cations on charge storage or electrochemical performance has not been fully understood. In this study, sodium ion was taken as an example and introduced into the lithium titanium oxide (LTO) anode through the carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) binder. After the charge/discharge cycles, these ions doped into the LTO lattice and improved both the lithium-ion diffusivity and the electronic conductivity of the anode. The sodium ion’s high concentration (>12.9%), however, resulted in internal doping of Na+into the LTO lattice, which retarded the transfer of lithium ions due to repulsion and physical blocking. The systematic study presented here shows that large cations with an appropriate concentration in the electrode would be beneficial to the electrochemical performance of the Li-ion battery.Keywords:lithium-ion battery;LTO anode;sodium doping;lithium-ion diffusivity

Graphite is one of the major anode materials for commercial lithium-ion batteries. Li+ transport in a single graphite granule along intra and interlayer modes is a crucial factor for the battery performance. However, direct evidence and visualized details of the Li+ transports are hardly provided. Here, we report the direct observation of the anisotropic transport behavior of Li+ and investigate the electro-chemo-structure evolution during the lithiation of graphite through both the intra and interlayer pathways via in situ transmission electron microscopy. The in situ experiments of nano batteries give two extreme conditions, in which thermal runaway induced by polarization only occurs along the interlayer, not along the intralayer. The high diffusion energy barrier induced large polarization when the interlayer Li+ transport became dominant. The energy of the polarization electric field would be instantaneously released like a short electric pulse, which generated a substantial amount of joule heat and created an extremely high temperature, causing the melting of the tungsten tip. We provide another possible fundamental mechanism of thermal failure in graphite-based Li-ion batteries and hope this insightful work would help the safety management of graphite-based lithium-ion batteries.

Li 2 ZnTi 3 O 8 (LZTO) has been highlighted as a promising active anode material for rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, but it suffers from a low high-rate capacity due to the sluggish Li-ion diffusion kinetics and inevitable consumption of Li + due to side reactions at the electrode/electrolyte interface. In this study, using Li 3 PO 4 as a lithium ion conductor and interface modifier, the crystal structure and electrochemical properties of LZTO are systematically studied and confirm that it is a faster lithium ion conductivity. Li 3 PO 4 not only accelerates Li-ion transport and increases diffusion paths, but also exhibits interfacial stability at high temperatures. Due to these advantages, the LZTO electrode containing the Li 3 PO 4 coating layer exhibits significantly improved electrochemical performance. The new Li 3 PO 4 coated LZTO electrode shows a large discharge specific capacity of 158.9 mAh g − 1 and a high capacity retention of 99% is obtained after 200 cycles at a rate of 5.0 A g − 1 and combined with cycle stability. Furthermore, the Li 3 PO 4 coated LZTO electrode also exhibits excellent low electrode polarization and high temperature long cycling performance for 500 cycles at temperatures up to 70 °C.

We report Sn(II) and Sn(IV) self-selective dual-doping, respectively, on Fe and Si sites of Li2FeSiO4 nanocrystals due to the steric and electronic structure effects of Sn(II,IV). Combined with experimental studies and theoretical calculations, we investigate the structure–property relationship of tin doped Li2FeSiO4 as the cathode material for high performance Li-ion batteries, in which the dual-doping enhances the electronic conductivity and lithium-ion diffusion coefficient. The doped sample with 5% Sn(IV) source shows the best electrochemical performance due to the improved electronic conductivity and Li-ion diffusivity. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations also reveal that tin dual-doped Li2FeSiO4 has better electronic conductivity and lower voltage of delithiation than that of the undoped Li2FeSiO4, which is in accordance with our experimental results.

The titanium-based lithium ion sieve adsorbent H 2 TiO 3 (HTO), known for its structural stability and high adsorption capacity, emerges as a highly promising material. Nonetheless, its precursor, the Li 2 TiO 3 powder (LTO), synthesized via the high-temperature solid-phase method, tends to agglomerate and poses challenges in separation. This agglomeration compromises the adsorption sites and, consequently, its adsorption capacity. To counter this, we employed a strategy of doping LTO with magnetic Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles as a Fe source, aiming to mitigate the agglomeration issue. Subsequently, Fe-doped H 2 TiO 3 (HFTO) was obtained by acid washing and used to adsorb lithium ions from an aqueous solution. Experimental results revealed that HFTO's equilibrium adsorption capacity for lithium in LiCl solution peaked at 34.27 mg/g. Moreover, even after five cycles of adsorption–desorption, HFTO maintained an adsorption capacity exceeding 32.00 mg/g. Investigations into HFTO's adsorption mechanism, utilizing Raman spectroscopy, FT-IR, and XPS , uncovered that the adsorption of Li + by HFTO occurs through the dissociation of O–H bonds and the subsequent formation of O-Li bonds.

Li10GeP2S12 (LGPS) is a new solid electrolyte of the highest Li ionic conductivity reported as of now. An anisotropic 3D Li ionic transport network consisting of an ultrafast Li 1D diffusion tunnel and fast in-plane 2D pathways was previously predicted by molecular dynamics simulations. In this paper, we have studied in detail the Li ion dynamics in LGPS by multiple solid-state NMR methods. Two different Li motion processes, characterized by apparently different activation energies of 0.16 eV and 0.26 eV, were unambiguously probed by both 7Li and 31P solid-state NMR and assigned to Li ion diffusions in the 1D tunnel and in the 2D plane, respectively. 31P spin-locking relaxation measurement further reveals that interstitial position Li(4) is active for in-plane Li migration.

Olivine-type LiMnPO 4 (LMP) cathodes have gained enormous attraction for Li-ion batteries (LIBs) due to high discharge platform, theoretical capacity and thermal stability. However, it is still challenging to achieve encouraging Li-storage behavior owing to the low electronic conductivity and slow Li-ion diffusion rate of LMP. Here, the electrochemical behavior of fibrous LiFe x Mn 1-x PO 4 @carbon (LF x M 1-x P@C, x = 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1) composites with different Fe doping amounts is investigated. Among the composites, LF 0.5 M 0.5 P@C demonstrates a superior cell performance due to a higher Li-ion diffusion coefficient (D Li ), resulting from a proper Fe doping ratio and a more uniform morphology. At a current rate of 0.2 C (1 C = 170 mA g −1 ), the LF 0.5 M 0.5 P@C cathode delivers a specific capacity of 150 mAh g −1 up to 500 cycles with a capacity retention of 119%. A longer-term cycling at 5 C for 2000 cycles can be maintained with a reversible capacity exceeding 102 mAh g −1 . The fundamental study provides an insightful guidance for future design of cathode materials with high performance.

Two dimensional layered MoS 2 has demonstrated great promise as an ideal alternative to graphite-based anodes for hybrid Li-ion capacitors and Li-ion batteries. Research effort on this material has focused mainly on synthesizing highly nanostructured MoS 2 that allows reducing the dimensions into nanoscale to cross over the sluggish kinetics of Li-ion charge storage. Herein, we engineer the layer structure of MoS 2 to preferentially expand the interlayer distance to increase atomic interface contact/interaction by successfully inserting amorphous carbon layer into adjacent MoS 2 monolayers. This interlayer modified MoS 2 is demonstrated to have the predominantly pseudocapacitive characteristics and can get further gains in Li-ion storage properties through incorporating reduced graphene oxide (RGO). Thus, a novel hybrid Li-ion capacitor is fabricated by employing this MoS 2 -RGO composite as the anode and activated carbon as the cathode, which exhibits an ultrahigh specific energy density of 188 Wh kg -1 at 200 W kg -1 and remains 45.3 Wh kg -1 even at a high specific power density of 40,000 W kg -1 as well as long cycle life. This work shows that engineering interlayer structure and introducing conductive graphene can significantly impact the Li-ion storage properties, enabling new opportunities for designing newly advanced MoS 2 anodes for next-generation energy storage devices.

The Li 2 MnSiO 4 as a novel cathode material for lithium ion batteries, performs high specific capacity, high thermal stability, low cost and etc. However, it suffers from relatively low electronic conductivity and lithium ion diffusion rate. Herein, we successfully introduce fluorine to Li 2 MnSiO 4 (Li 2 MnSiO 4-x F x , x = 0.00, 0.01, 0.03 and 0.05) to overcome these obstacles. The results show that F doping not only enlarges the lattice parameters but also decreases the particle size, synergistically improving the lithium ion diffusion of Li 2 MnSiO 4 . Moreover, F doping increase electronic conductivity of Li 2 MnSiO 4 /C by inhibiting the formation of C-O bonds in the carbon layers . Meanwhile, F doping improves the crystallinity and stabilizes the crystal structure of Li 2 MnSiO 4 . Finally, the Li 2 MnSiO 3.97 F 0.03 /C with the best electrochemical performances delivers the initial specific discharge capacity of 279 mA h g −1 at 25mA g −1 current density from 1.5 V to 4.8 V. Also, it maintains a higher capacity (201 mA h g −1 ) than F-free Li 2 MnSiO 4 (145 mA h g −1 ) after 50 cycles.

A novel adsorbent lithium ion-sieve membrane (LISM) toward Li + was successfully prepared by the phase inversion technique using synthesized lithium ion-sieve ultrafine powder as the precursor, poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) as a binder, N , N -dimethylacetamide (DMAc) as the solvent. The key design for the synthesis of LISM is the formation of lithium ion-sieve dropping with PVDF powder to obtain a highly selective adsorbent. The prepared LISM have been characterized. The X-ray diffraction illustrated that the synthesized lithium ion-sieve were purity phase cubic spinel structure, the scanning electron microscopy shown that the LISM with a poriferous surface morphology and lithium ion-sieve equably dispersed on the surface of the membrane. The membrane flux (9.7 mL cm −1 min −1 ) suggested that the LISM achieved high hydrophily and stability. The maximum adsorption capacity is 27.8 mg g −1 in a high adsorption rate towards Li + within 60 min. In addition, the LISM has excellent adsorption selectivity, since the separation factor α is 4.76 with respect to Mg 2+ . Overall results revealed that the LISM as a good candidate for Li + separation and concentration from salt lake brine with a relatively high value of Mg 2+ /Li + ratio.

A novel eco-friendly polyvinyl alcohol/cellulose nanofiber–Li+ (PVA/CNF–Li) composite separator was prepared for lithium-ion batteries. In this membrane by a non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) wet-process, CNF–Li originating from wood pulp was successfully prepared and characterized by FT-IR and TEM. The composite separators showed excellent porosity of over 60%, and better ionic conductivity (∼1.1 mS cm−1) as well as remarkable electrolyte uptake approaching 2.3. CNF–Li combined the excellent properties of both nanofibers and ion-conductive polymers such as CMC–Li. The introduction of CNF–Li in the separator increased the thermal dimensional stability and mechanical performance. Simultaneously, CNF–Li as a constituent in the membrane increased the contents of Li+, opening a way for Li+ transportation to improve batteries' Li+ diffusion efficiency and specific capacity. The battery with a 2 wt% CNF–Li separator retained 93% of the initial reversible capacity after 50 cycles, which was much higher than that of the commercial polypropylene (PP) separator with a value of 80%. The PVA/CNF–Li composite membrane produced via a relatively low cost and eco-friendly method can serve as a potential alternative of commercial PP separators applied in high-performance lithium-ion batteries.

H 2 TiO 3 is the most promising and highly selective lithium-ion sieve. In this study, HTO-PVC- x ( x = 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30) lithium-ion sieves were prepared via an antisolvent method using PVC as the matrix. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results showed that Li 2 TiO 3 was preferentially indexed to a C 2/ c monoclinic structure. LTO-PVC- x had a spherical size of 300 μm and an enormous specific surface area. The morphology and size of HTO-PVC- x obtained by HCl elution were consistent with those of LTO-PVC- x , indicating good separation and recycling properties. HTO-PVC-15 had a higher adsorption performance and adsorption capacity at a lower initial Li + concentration. The adsorption behaviour of HTO-PVC-15 is in accordance with the Langmuir isothermal model and pseudo-second-order model, which belongs to the chemical adsorption process . It reached 96% of its equilibrium adsorption capacity within 2 h. Simultaneously, it maintained high adsorption selectivity and cycling performance and a low Ti 4+ dissolution rate. Thus, HTO-PVC-15 has immense potential to be used for salt lake brine adsorption applications.
