Week 1 Understanding Different Battery Chemistry

Prepare a table which includes materials & chemical reactions occurring at the anode and cathode of LCO, LMO, NCA, NMC, LFP and LTO-type lithium-ion cells. Give your detailed explanation of it

Lithium-Ion Cell Chemistry

Anode Material

Anode Reaction

Cathode Material

Cathode Reaction

LCO

Graphite

LiC6 → Li+ + C6+ e-

LCO

LiCoO2 + Li+ + e- ↔ LiCoO2

LMO

Graphite

LiC6 → Li+ + C6+ e-

LMO

MnO2 + Li+ + e- ↔ LiMnO2

NCA

Graphite

LiC6 → Li+ + C6+ e-

NCA

NiCoAlO2 + Li+ + e- ↔ LiNiCoAlO2

NMC

Graphite

LiC6 → Li+ + C6+ e-

NMC

NiMnCoO2 + Li+ + e- ↔ LiNiMnCoO2

LFP

Graphite

LiC6 → Li+ + C6+ e-

LFP

FeO4 + Li+ + e- ↔ LiFePO4

LTO

Lithium Metal

Li4Ti3O12 → Ti5O12 +4Li+ +4 e-

LTO

4Mn2O4 + 4Li+ + 4e- ↔ 4LiMn2O4

2. Compare the differences between each type of Li+ion battery based on their characteristics
