Week 1 Understanding Different Battery Chemistry

Battery Type Materials Cathode Reaction Anode Reaction
LCO – Lithium Cobalt Oxide

Cathode: LiCoO2

Anode: Graphite
Li1-xCoO2+xLi++xe-→ LiCoO2 LiC6 →Li++e-+6C
LMO – Lithium Manganese Oxide

Cathode: LiMn2O4

Anode: Graphite
Li1-xMn2O4 + xLi+ + Xe- → LiMn2O4 LiC6 →Li++e-+6C
NCA – Lithium Nickel cobalt Aluminium Oxide

Cathode: LiNiCoAlO2

Anode: Graphite
Li1-xNiCoO2+ xLi+ + Xe- → LiNiCoO2 LiC6 →Li++e-+6C
NMC – Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide

Cathode: LiNiMnCoO2

Anode: Graphite
Li1-xNiyMnzCo1-y-zO2 + xLi+ + Xe- →LiNiyMnzCo1-y-zO2 LiC6 →Li++e-+6C
LFP- Lithium Iron Phosphate

Cathode: LiFePO4

Anode: Graphite
Li1-xFePO4+ xLi+ + xe- → LiFePO4 (0<x≤1). For x = 1 the equation will be Li+ + e- + FePO4 →LiFePO4 LiC6 →Li++e-+6C
LTO – Lithium Titanate oxide

Cathode: May be one of the below: LiCoO2 , LiNiO2 , LiMn2O4 , LiFePO4

Anode: Li4Ti5O12
Li1-xCoO2 + xLi+ +xe- →LiCoO2

Li4+xTi5O12 → Li4Ti5O12 + xLi+ + xe-

(x = 3)
