The interaction of Li+ with myo-inositol monophosphatase was studied by 7Li-NMR spectroscopy. Li+ binding to the enzyme induces a downfield shift and broadening of the 7Li-NMR signal. Changes of the chemical shift were used to follow the titration of the enzyme with lithium and to determine a dissociation constant, Kd = (1.0 +/- 0.1) mM. Only one major binding site/enzyme subunit was inferred. The complex forms independently of the presence of inorganic phosphate. Metals from the group IIa of the periodic table compete with Li+ binding with the affinity increasing in the order Mg2+ < Ca2+ < Be2+. In contrast to lithium, their binding is enhanced by phosphate.

Direct lithium extraction (DLE) from natural surface and geothermal brines is very challenging due to the low ratio of lithium to other metals, and the lack of suitable materials that bind lithium with sufficiently high selectivity. In this paper, a synergistic solvent extraction system is described that comprises a liquid ion exchanger (saponified bis(2-ethylhexyl)dithiophosphoric acid) and a lithium-selective ligand (2,9-dibutyl-1,10-phenanthroline) in an aliphatic diluent. The extraction mechanism was investigated and was confirmed to involve the binding of lithium to the selective ligand, while the liquid ion exchanger facilitates the transfer of metal ions from the aqueous to the organic phase.

Metal batteries have captured significant attention for high-energy applications, owing to their superior theoretical energy densities. However, their practical viability is impeded by severe dendrite formation and poor cycling stability. To alleviate these issues, a 3D-structured bimetallic-MoTiCT based fiber electrode was fabricated in this study and analyzed experimentally and computationally.

Solid polymer electrolytes have yet to achieve the desired ionic conductivity (>1 mS/cm) near room temperature required for many applications. This target implies the need to reduce the effective energy barriers for ion transport in polymer electrolytes to around 20 kJ/mol. In this work, we combine information extracted from existing experimental results with theoretical calculations to provide insights into ion transport in single-ion conductors (SICs) with a focus on lithium ion SICs.

Recycling of spent lithium-ion batteries has attracted worldwide attention to ensure sustainability of electric vehicle industry. Pretreatment as an essential step for recycling of spent LIBs is critical to ensure the recovery efficiency and quality of black mass which is used for further materials regeneration. Usually, high temperature pyrolysis, at around 600 °C is required during the pretreatment to achieve effective separation of the black mass that is binding on aluminium foils with polyvinylidene fluoride binder.
