Lithium batteries generate electrical energy by moving lithium ions between electrodes. The storage and release of this energy are achieved by inserting and removing lithium ions from the positive electrode active material into the negative electrode active material, without any chemical reactions. This is a major characteristic of lithium-ion batteries.
The characteristic of its battery response determines that it will have a longer lifespan than traditional secondary batteries. In addition, the wide selection space for electrode data is also a major feature of lithium-ion batteries. In addition, lithium-ion batteries themselves have the characteristics of miniaturization, lightweight, and high voltage. Through data selection and structural planning, high output power and capacity can be achieved, and thus a structure and characteristics that are completely consistent with practical use can be planned. This is also one of the advantages of lithium-ion batteries.
A lithium-ion battery is composed of a positive active substance as an oxidant, a negative active substance as a reducing agent, an electrolyte as a conductive phase for lithium ions, and a separator to prevent short circuits between the two electrodes. The following is an example of a lithium-ion battery to illustrate its storage environment and precautions:
