Challenges and Strategies to Advance High‐Energy Nickel‐Rich Layered Lithium Transition Metal Oxide Cathodes for Harsh Operation

Abstract: Nickel-rich layered lithium transition metal oxides (LiNi 1−x−y Co x Mn y O 2 and LiNi 1−x−y Co x Al y O 2 , x + y ≤ 0.2) are the most attractive cathode materials for the next generation lithium-ion batteries for automotive application. However, they suffer from structural/interfacial instability during repeated charge/discharge, resulting in severe performance degradation and serious safety concerns. This work provides a comprehensive review about challenges and strategies to advance nickel-rich layered cath… Show more

“…Compared with commercialized cathode materials, such as LiCoO 2 (145 mAh g À 1 ) and spinel-LiMn 2 O 4 (120 mAh g À 1 ), the Ni-rich layered oxides (LiNi x Mn y Co z O 2 ; x � 0.6, x + y + z = 1, Ni-rich NCMs) have a higher practical specific capacity of around 180 mAh g À 1 with the same upper cutoff potential of 4.2 V vs. Li + /Li at C/10. [4][5][6][7][8] Even more of the specific capacity can be extracted from Ni-rich NCM cathodes by expanding the voltage window of the cells to cutoff potential above 4.2 V vs. Li + /Li, despite a small 0.1 V difference in upper cutoff voltage. [9][10][11][12][13] However, both limited anodic stability of the standard electrolytes above 4.2 V vs. Li + /Li and instability of Nirich NCM cathode materials in a highly-charged state make high-voltage performance difficult to achieve.…”

“…It also revealed a complex dependency on the NMC composition with respect to the stability of the materials to a temperature rise and increased cut-off voltage. An increase in the nickel content to enhance energy density reduces the stability and raises the degradation rate, which can be counteracted by an increase in the manganese content within the composition [18][19][20][21].…”

“…Therefore, the predesign and control of crystal morphology,u niformity and monodispersity is still at remendous challenge.C rystal-lization processes are also known to produce hierarchical superstructures by the alignment of small crystallites.S uch crystals have amultidomain morphology and are expected to be polycrystalline. [11][12][13][14] Many naturally occurring crystals have shapes which do not correlate with their crystallographic symmetry.B iomineralization can afford materials with superior properties, complex morphologies and hierarchical order. [15][16][17][18] Most of these natural materials are based on single crystals of calcium carbonate.T he existence of specific and complex morphologies is ad irect result of the evolutionary approach of nature and needed to fulfill various tasks.For example,coccoliths are composed of calcium carbonate which is known to be brittle.…”
