Boosting Ultra-Fast Charge Battery Performance: Filling Porous nanoLiTiO Particles with 3D Network of N-doped Carbons.

Lithium titanium oxide (LiTiO)-based cells are a promising technology for ultra-fast charge-discharge and long life-cycle batteries. However, the surface reactivity of LiTiO and lack of electronic conductivity still remains problematic. One of the approaches toward mitigating these problems is the use of carbon-coated particles.

New Avenue for Limiting Degradation in NanoLiTiO for Ultrafast-Charge Lithium-Ion Batteries: Hybrid Polymer-Inorganic Particles.

Lithium titanium oxide (LiTiO)-based cells are a very promising battery technology for ultrafast-charge-discharge and long-cycle-life batteries. However, the surface reactivity of lithium titanium oxide in the presence of organic electrolytes continues to be a problem that may cause expansion of pouch cells. In this study, we report on the development of a simple and economical grafting method for forming hybrid polymer-LiTiO nanoparticles, which can be successfully applied in lithium-ion batteries.
