“…Metal oxides, such as Li cobalt oxides, Li iron phosphates, and Li manganese oxides are usually used as the main components for the cathode. Li salts, such as Li perchlorate, Li tetrafluoroborate, or Li hexafluorophosphate dissolve in organic solvents, such as diethyl carbonate, ethylene carbonate, or dimethyl carbonate, serve as liquid electrolytes for conventional Li‐ion batteries . When polymer electrolytes replace liquid electrolytes, the resulting batteries are called Li‐ion polymer batteries.…”

Portable electronic devices (PEDs) are promising information‐exchange platforms for real‐time responses. Their performance is becoming more and more sensitive to energy consumption. Rechargeable batteries are the primary energy source of PEDs and hold the key to guarantee their desired performance stability. With the remarkable progress in battery technologies, multifunctional PEDs have constantly been emerging to meet the requests of our daily life conveniently. The ongoing surge in demand for high‐performance PEDs inspires the relentless pursuit of even more powerful rechargeable battery systems in turn. In this review, we present how battery technologies contribute to the fast rise of PEDs in the last decades. First, a comprehensive overview of historical advances in PEDs is outlined. Next, four types of representative rechargeable batteries and their impacts on the practical development of PEDs are described comprehensively. The development trends toward a new generation of batteries and the future research focuses are also presented.

Electrospun ceramic oxide fibers find myriad uses as energy materials such as in battery electrodes and vanadium oxides are one such family of materials. In this study, the structural and energy storage properties of electrospun vanadium pentoxide are compared to approximately 10 at% barium and titanium-doped equivalents. The vanadium pentoxide was doped in order to improve its electrochemical performance. The materials are characterised using powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller measurements, transmission electron microscopy and potentiostatic and galvanostatic analysis. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that each dopant has a critical effect on lattice distortions whilst showing no influence over the overall crystal structure, which is unusual for such large dopant amounts. The doped materials show better cyclability and higher efficiencies than the pure equivalent. Ex-situ X-ray diffraction measurements show detrimental phase changes within undoped V2O5 whereas the titanium-doped V2O5 predominantly remains as α-V2O5 after the first cycle.

“…Among various positive electrode materials, LiFePO 4 has attracted considerable interests because of its unique olivine structure, good thermal stability, plentiful raw material supply, and environmental compatibility, but the low‐temperature performance must be improved for its practical applications in different environments . Low‐temperature performance is strongly affected by electrolyte composition, electrode material composition and battery structure. Current studies on the enhancement of the low‐temperature performance of LiFePO 4 focus on doping elements, surface treatment, or using quaternary electrolytes with specific formulations…”

“…As the blood of batteries, the electrolyte will affect the transport properties of Li + ions as well as the solid interface film on the electrodes, and the solvent plays an important role in determining cell performance . The solvent affects the solubility of solute and the transfer processes of mass, heat, momentum, and charge by forming different solvated ions and altering the physical properties of the electrolyte, such as the melting point, viscosity, solubility, and conductivity.…”

Effects of Solvents on the Electrochemical Performance of LiFePO₄/C Composite Electrodes

The electrolyte, a key component for the successful operation of energy materials, is greatly affected by its solvents. The influence of solvents on the electrochemical performance of a LiFePO4/C composite cathode was investigated at various operating temperatures. The reaction kinetics of the LiFePO4/C composite electrode, including changes of rate capability, redox potential, polarization degree, electrode reaction process, exchange current densities, and activation energies, were evaluated using various techniques. The composition and volume ratio of solvents greatly affect the electrode kinetics. In the mixed solvents of ethylene carbonate (EC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), EMC is beneficial for the room temperature performance, while the substitution of 20 vol % of EMC by ethyl acetate (EA) is good for the low temperature performance. When 30 vol % of DMC is substituted by 10 vol % of EMC and 20 vol % of EA, the exchange current density increases from 0.022 to 0.038 mA cm−2 at −20 °C, while the activation energy of the charge‐transfer process decreases from 48.36 to 33.01 kJ mol−1. Possible mechanisms for improving the electrochemical performance using different solvents have been analyzed. These results are significant for the exploration of appropriate electrolytes for the extensive applications of LiFePO4/C composite electrodes.
