There are three main groups of negative electrode materials for Li-ion batteries. The materials known as insertion materials are Li-ion batteries' “historic” electrode materials. Carbon and titanates are the best known and most widely used.
This mini-review discusses the recent trends in electrode materials for Li-ion batteries. Elemental doping and coatings have modified many of the commonly used electrode materials, which are used either as anode or cathode materials. This has led to the high diffusivity of Li ions, ionic mobility and conductivity apart from specific capacity.
The limitations in potential for the electroactive material of the negative electrode are less important than in the past thanks to the advent of 5 V electrode materials for the cathode in lithium-cell batteries. However, to maintain cell voltage, a deep study of new electrolyte–solvent combinations is required.
The first use of lithium alloys as negative electrodes in commercial batteries to operate at ambient temperatures was the employment of Wood’s metal alloys in lithium-conducting button type cells by Matsushita in Japan. Development work on the use of these alloys started in 1983 [ 29 ], and they became commercially available somewhat later.
This type of cell typically uses either Li–Si or Li–Al alloys in the negative electrode. The first use of lithium alloys as negative electrodes in commercial batteries to operate at ambient temperatures was the employment of Wood’s metal alloys in lithium-conducting button type cells by Matsushita in Japan.
Because of these safety and cycle life problems with the use of elemental lithium, essentially all commercial rechargeable lithium batteries now use lithium–carbon alloys as negative electrode reactants today.
