Week 1 Understanding Different Battery Chemistry
| TYPES OF Li ION CELL | ANODE | CATHODE | CHEMICAL REACTIONS |
| LCO | cobalt oxide | graphhite/carbon |
During charging lithium ions move from cathode to anode. During discharging lithium ions move from anode to cathode. |
| LMO | Lithium | Manganese oxide |
During charging lithium ions move from cathode to anode. During discharging lithium ions move from anode to cathode. |
| NCA | lithium | nickel cobalt aluminium oxide |
During charging lithium ions move from cathode to anode. During discharging lithium ions move from anode to cathode. |
| LFP | lithium | phosphate |
During charging lithium ions move from cathode to anode. During discharging lithium ions move from anode to cathode. |
| LTO | lithium | manganese oxide |
During charging lithium ions move from cathode to anode. During discharging lithium ions move from anode to cathode. |
| TYPES OF CELLS | CHARACTERISTICS |
| LCO |
Li-cobalt is a short life span,limited load capabilities,low thermal stability. |
| LMO |
fast charging and high current discharging, high life span, high capacity |
| NCA |
good thermal stability,long cycle life,highly safety , elevated self discharge. |
| LFP |
high specific energy,good specific power,long life span. |
| LTO |
high life span,low cost ,good specific energy. |
