Alloys and Intermetallic Anodes

  • Chapter
Lithium Batteries

Early work on the commercial development of rechargeable lithium batteries to operate at or near ambient temperatures involved the use of elemental lithium as the negative electrode reactant. Binary phases, generally involving a solid solution of lithium in one of the forms of carbon, are currently employed on the negative side of lithium cells.

There is considerable interest in finding alternative materials that might be more attractive than the lithium-carbons. Improvements might involve the ability to operate safely at higher current densities, less first cycle irreversible capacity loss, better cycling behavior, reduced specific volume, and lower cost.
