Cathode materials that have high specific energies and low manufacturing costs are vital for the scaling up of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) as energy storage solutions. Fe-based intercalation cathodes are highly attractive because of the low-cost and the abundance of the raw materials. However, existing Fe-based materials, such as LiFePO4 suffer from low capacity due to the large size of the polyanions. Turning to mixed anion systems can be a promising strategy to achieve higher specific capacity. Recently, anti-perovskite structured oxysulphide Li2FeSO has been synthesised and reported to be electrochemically active. In this work, we perform an extensive computational search for iron-based oxysulphides using ab initio random structure searching (AIRSS). By performing an unbiased sampling of the Li-Fe-S-O chemical space, several new oxysulphide phases have been discovered which are predicted to be less than 50 meV/atom from the convex hull and potentially accessible for synthesis. Among the predicted phases, two anti-Ruddlesden-Popper structured materials Li2Fe2S2O and Li4Fe3S3O2 have been found to be attractive as they have high theoretical capacities with calculated average voltages 2.9 V and 2.5 V respectively. With band gaps as low as about 2.0 eV, they are expected to exhibit good electronic conductivities. By performing nudged-elastic band calculations, we show that the Li-ion transport in these materials takes place by hopping between the nearest neighbouring sites with low activation barriers between 0.3 eV and 0.5 eV. The richness of new materials yet to be synthesised in the Li-Fe-S-O phase field illustrate the great opportunity in these mixed anion systems for energy storage applications and beyond.

The dataset includes the structure searching results and outputs of further property calculations. The analysis codes are also included as Jupyter Notebooks.

The state of health (SOH) of lithium-ion batteries is an important part of the battery management system (BMS). Accurately grasping the SOH of the lithium-ion battery will help replace the battery in time, to avoid accidents. Aiming at the problems of complex BMS management and high calculation cost caused by too many inputs/attributes, this study used feature engineering to mine the higher temperature variety rate associated with degraded capacity as the input of temporal convolutional networks (TCNs) and SOH as the output to establish the TCN model. On this basis, three lithium-ion batteries, namely, as B0005, B0007, and B0018 are verified, and the mean absolute error (MAE) and root mean square error (RMSE) of predicted SOH are not more than 1.455% and 1.800%, respectively. To further obtain the uncertain expression of predicted SOH, this study adopts the sampling method to obtain the confidence interval of lithium-ion battery SOH prediction results.

The lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery has received a lot of attention because it is characterized by high theoretical energy density (2,600 Wh/kg) and low cost. Though many works on the “shuttle effect” of polysulfide have been investigated, lithium metal anode is a more challenging problem, which leads to a short life, low coulombic efficiency, and safety issues related to dendrites. As a result, the amelioration of lithium metal anode is an important means to improve the performance of lithium sulfur battery. In this paper, improvement methods on lithium metal anode for lithium sulfur batteries, including adding electrolyte additives, using solid, and/or gel polymer electrolyte, modifying separators, applying a protective coating, and providing host materials for lithium deposition, are mainly reviewed. In addition, some challenging problems, and further promising directions are also pointed out for future research and development of lithium metal for Li-S batteries.

Conventional lithium-ion batteries demonstrate great potential for energy storage applications but they face some major challenges such as low energy density and high cost. It is worthwhile to pursue alternative strategies to address the barriers of cost and energy density. In this project, we will develop advanced rechargeable lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries that have much higher energy density and lower cost. Our Phase I project will use a superionic solid electrolyte and sulfur-immobilized carbon matrix to reduce sulfur loss to the electrolyte and to increase the sulfur utilization. The full lithium-sulfur button and pouch batteries based on these components will be constructed to evaluate their electrochemical performance. Based on our preliminary data, it is anticipated that a 400 Wh/kg energy density of Li-S pouch cells can be demonstrated for a minimum of hundreds of cycles.

This Phase I SBIR project seeks to develop a 500 Wh/kg Lithium primary battery for intended application as the primary power source on landers and probes for future missions to Titan/Enceladus and near Earth asteroids. The proposed battery technology aims to offer a viable alternative to Li/SO2 primary batteries which were used in the most recent mission to Titan. A thorough analysis of power requirements for the Huygens-Cassini mission (2005 landing) will be undertaken from the point of view of identifying engineering areas where the benefits of introduction of a more potent battery could be realized. Developers will focus on the engineering and performance testing of two distinctly different cell designs in a 32650 cylindrical cell housing. An integral part of the new battery will be a system of smart electrical heaters which, at a fraction of available battery power, will turn resistive heaters on and off as required to compensate for heat losses through the battery box wall (the assumption of the model being studied is that the battery should not require the use of external radioactive heating sources to maintain operation). This project will see the introduction of several new materials which will be manufactured by the contractor for purposes of boosting the energy efficiency of the proposed battery system.

The Department of Energy (DOE), Geothermal Technologies Office (GTO) launched a multi-phase funding program to advance technologies for extraction of lithium from geothermal brines. This initiative, known as American-Made Geothermal Lithium Extraction Prize (GLEP), had objectives of advancing technology for direct lithium extraction (DLE) from geothermal brines and make it as cost competitive as the conventional lithium extraction methods. To support these GLEP projects, Idaho National Laboratory (INL) formulated a Synthetic Li Prize Brine (SLPB) and provided it to all Phase 3 finalists to test with their technologies. The SLPB was used as a baseline lithium extraction feed brine for testing the efficacy of direct lithium extraction (DLE) technology developed by finalists. Included here are details on the synthesis of the SLPB.

Lithium ion battery technology provides the highest energy density of all rechargeable battery technologies available today. However, the majority of the research into this technology is focused on developing lower cost materials for the consumer electronics market, and not on high reliability or long life. As a result, the materials developed do not meet the needs of the aerospace industry in terms of mass and volume specific storage capacities, and suppliers will often alter the formulation or process with little warning. It is therefore proposed to use domestically manufactured, advanced anode, cathode, and electrolyte materials to design advanced batteries for aerospace systems. The proposed anode material, developed at Applied Sciences, is a nanometer-scale composite of silicon and carbon nanofiber capable of providing 1000 mAh/g with coulombic efficiencies above 99.6% to moderate cycle numbers. The electrolyte will be a multi-blend of asymmetric linear carbonates capable of operating from -40^oC to +70^oC. These materials will be coupled with high capacity cathode materials to enable the production of cells with specific energy (> 300 Wh/kg) and an energy density (> 600 Wh/l) that can operate across a wide temperature range. Cells fabricated under this program will be characterized for electrochemical performance and safety.

Abstract:

The interest in post-lithium batteries as an alternative to lithium-ion batteries boosted recently due to their substantial abundance, low cost, inherent safety, and sustainability. In recent years, the crucial need for the improvement of battery safety has been emphasized and safety remains a critical barrier for post-lithium technology. Therefore, the thermal stability and reaction enthalpies of electrochemically de-sodiated sodium vanadium phosphate (Na3V2(PO4)3/C) positive electrode and commercial coconut-shell derived hard carbon (HC) at various states of charge (SOCs) were systematically investigated. This study employed the 3D Tian-Calvet calorimeter (C80) and thermogravimetric analysis coupled with mass spectrometry (TGA-MS), to gain comprehensive insights into the thermodynamic aspects of these materials. Thermal stability of electrode materials at distinct sodiation / de-sodiation states draws great attention in cell design and is is one of the reasons for the strong state of charge (SOC) dependence of the thermal runaway phenomenon, which represents the most critical safety issue for batteries. This combined experimental approach provides a comprehensive understanding of thermal stability and associated reactions in both, sodium vanadium phosphate (NVP) and hard carbon (HC) electrodes. NVP/C reacts with the electrolyte between 150 and 300 °C, releasing ~400 J/g heat, although it thermally decomposed beyond 150°C. The sodiated HC initiates decomposition at 300 °C, releasing ~1200 J/g heat in two steps in a reaction to the electrolyte. These data can facilitate optimizing the design of thermal management systems according to the cell’s thermal performance.

In this work, a new bulk Li3.6PO3.4N0.6 crystalline polymorph has been prepared from low-cost precursors, following a simple ball-milling procedure. The densified powder exhibits a conductivity of 5.0 × 10–6 S cm–1 at 70 °C and an electrochemical stability allowing operation with high-voltage materials up to 5.0 V vs Li/Li+. Stripping and plating of lithium in a symmetric cell demonstrates the forthcoming bulk application of LiPON in electrochemical devices. Widening the use of lithium phosphorus oxynitride compositions to bulk solid-state batteries will have relevant implications because of its unique compatibility with both high-voltage electroactive materials and lithium metal and its low density.

The ongoing energy crisis has made it imperative to develop low-cost, easily fabricated, yet efficient materials. It is highly desirable for these nanomaterials to function effectively in multiple applications. Among transition metal dichalcogenides, tungsten diselenide (WSe2) shows great promise but remains understudied. In this work, we doped WSe2 with Mn using a simple hydrothermal method. The resulting material exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction, achieving a low overpotential of –0.28 V vs RHE at -10 mA/cm2, enhanced conductivity, and high stability and durability. Moreover, as an anode material in in lithium-ion batteries, the Mn-doped WSe2 outperformed pristine WSe2, reaching discharge and charge capacities of 1223 and 922 mAh g−1, respectively. Additionally, the Mn-doped material maintained a significantly higher discharge capacity of 201 mAh g−1 compared to intact WSe2, which had 68 mAh g−1 after 150 cycles. This work offers novel insights into designing efficient bifunctional nanomaterials using transition metal dichalcogenides.
