The Science of Battery Degradation

Abstract: This report documents work that was performed under the Laboratory Directed Research and Development project, Science of Battery Degradation. The focus of this work was on the creation of new experimental and theoretical approaches to understand atomistic mechanisms of degradation in battery electrodes that result in loss of electrical energy storage capacity. Several unique approaches were developed during the course of the project, including the invention of a technique based on ultramicrotoming to cross-sec… Show more

“…We find that there is hysteresis in the entropy change at the start of cell life, and this hysteresis does not change significantly for calendar aged cells, but increases with cycle ageing. We hypothesise that these differences originate from microscopic material changes that reflect the unique ageing history [20,30]. Finally, as far as we know, no NCA-Gr|SiO x entropy ageing curves are available in the literature, so this work provides such data.…”

“…The measurement of entropy changes, known as entropy profiling, is another method that has been https://mc04.manuscriptcentral.com/jes-ecs proposed for understanding degradation [20,21,22,23]. Maher and Yazami [21] explored cycle ageing of a LCO/Gr cell, finding changes in the entropy profiles associated with loss of battery capacity, but there was no clear trend observed in the entropy profile changes.…”

“…30,31 The gas accumulated can delaminate the materials in the LIB, which can significantly affect the cycle life of the cell, and in the end, it is prone to lead to severe accidents. 31 Trace water has been blamed as a contributing factor triggering detrimental H 2 evolution reactions at the graphite surface (H 2 O + e − → OH − + 1/2H 2 ). 32−34 For example, Metzger et al 25 elucidated the origin of H 2 gas in LIBs and the effect of the vinylene carbonate (VC) additive on the gas evolution.…”
