Positive electrodes for Li-ion and lithium batteries (also termed “cathodes”) have been under intense scrutiny since the advent of the Li-ion cell in 1991. This is especially true in the past decade.
This review critically discusses various aspects of commercial electrode materials in Li-ion batteries. The modern day commercial Li-ion battery was first envisioned by Prof. Goodenough in the form of the LCO chemistry. The LiB was first commercialized by Sony in 1991. It had a LCO cathode and a soft carbon anode.
Graphite and its derivatives are currently the predominant materials for the anode. The chemical compositions of these batteries rely heavily on key minerals such as lithium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, and aluminium for the positive electrode, and materials like carbon and silicon for the anode (Goldman et al., 2019, Zhang and Azimi, 2022).
This review gives an account of the various emerging high-voltage positive electrode materials that have the potential to satisfy these requirements either in the short or long term, including nickel-rich layered oxides, lithium-rich layered oxides, high-voltage spinel oxides, and high-voltage polyanionic compounds.
The phosphate positive-electrode materials are less susceptible to thermal runaway and demonstrate greater safety characteristics than the LiCoO 2 -based systems. 7. New applications of lithium insertion materials As described in Section 6, current lithium-ion batteries consisting of LiCoO 2 and graphite have excellence in their performance.
Electrodes that have characteristics such as high charge capacity, high rate capability, and high voltage (considered for cathodes) can potentially improve the power and energy densities of Li-ion batteries. The objective of this review is to provide a simple yet comprehensive understanding of LiBs and their electrodes.

Anode materials for lithium-ion batteries: A review
At similar rates, the hysteresis of conversion electrode materials ranges from several hundred mV to 2 V [75], which is fairly similar to that of a Li-O 2 battery [76] but much larger than that of a Li-S battery (200–300 mV) [76] or a traditional intercalation electrode material (several tens mV) [77]. It results in a high level of round-trip energy inefficiency (less than 80% …
