This perspective discusses key advantages of alloy anode materials for solid-state batteries, including the avoidance of the short circuiting observed with lithium metal and the chemo-mechanical stabilization of the solid-electrolyte interphase.
Aluminum is used as cathode material in some lithium-ion batteries. Antimony is a brittle lustrous white metallic element with symbol Sb. It was discovered in 3000 BC and mistaken as for lead. The main producer is China and the metal is used in lead acid batteries to reinforce the lead plates, reduce maintenance and enhance performance.
Unfortunately, lithium alloys cannot be used as such in lithium cells, the main issue being the large volume expansion–contraction which occurs during the charge–discharge processes; these volume changes induce mechanical stresses with the resulting disintegration of the electrode with consequent failure in the round of cycles , see Fig. 6.
Due to its high chemical reactivity, lithium has the remarkable ability to form seamless alloys with a wide range of metals and metalloids, as illustrated in Fig. 2 a. In addition, the low melting point of approximately 180 °C exhibited by lithium creates an advantageous environment for the preparation of Li alloy materials .
The shortcomings and challenges as well as the prospects of alloy-containing lithium anodes are also analyzed.Abstract. Lithium metal is regarded as one of the most ideal anode materials for next-generation batteries, due to its high theoretical capacity of 3860 mAh g −1 and low redox potential (−3.04 V vs standard hydrogen electrode).
Owing to the high ductility of lithium, the lithium alloy can be realized through the solid-state alloying reaction between lithium and other particular metals by facile pressing or rolling routes at room temperature in an Ar-filled glove box , , , , , .
