Lithium-ion batteries currently have liquid lithium-ion battery (LIB) and polymer lithium-ion battery (PLB) types. Among them, the liquid lithium ion battery refers to a secondary battery in which the Li + intercalation compound is a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The positive electrode employs lithium compounds - lithium cobaltate, lithium manganate, and the negative electrode employs a lithium-carbon intercalation compound. Lithium-ion batteries are ideal energy carriers for development in the 21st century because of their high operating voltage, small size, light weight, high energy, no memory effect, no pollution, low self-discharge, and long cycle life.
In 1992, Sony successfully developed lithium-ion batteries. Its practical application has greatly reduced the weight and volume of portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and notebook computers. The use time is greatly extended. Since lithium-ion batteries do not contain heavy metal cadmium, the pollution to the environment is greatly reduced compared to nickel-cadmium batteries.
Lithium battery pollution is still there, but it is relatively small.
Lithium batteries generally have two appearances: cylindrical and square. The spiral wound structure is used inside the battery, and a very fine and highly pervious polyethylene film is used to separate the positive and negative electrodes. The positive electrode includes a current collector composed of lithium cobaltate (or lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium manganate, lithium iron phosphate, etc.) and aluminum foil. The negative electrode consists of a current collector consisting of a graphitized carbon material and a copper foil. The battery is filled with organic electrolyte solution. In addition, a safety valve and a PTC element (partially cylindrical) are installed to protect the battery from damage in abnormal conditions and output short circuit.
The voltage of a single-cell lithium battery is 3.7V (3.2V for a lithium iron phosphate cathode), and the battery capacity cannot be infinitely large. Therefore, a single-cell lithium battery is often subjected to serial and parallel processing to meet the requirements of different occasions.
With the development of the microelectronics technology in the 20th century, miniaturized equipment has been increasing, placing high demands on power supplies. Lithium batteries have subsequently entered a large-scale practical stage. Lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in portable appliances such as laptops, video cameras, and mobile communications because of their unique performance advantages. The development of large-capacity lithium-ion batteries has begun trials in electric vehicles and is expected to become one of the main power sources for 21st-century electric vehicles. It will also be used in sideboard satellites, aerospace and energy storage applications. With the shortage of energy and the pressure of the world's environmental protection. Lithium is widely used in the electric vehicle industry, especially the appearance of lithium iron phosphate battery, which further promotes the development and application of lithium battery industry.
