Also in that year, Rachid Yazami demonstrated the reversible electrochemical intercalation of lithium into graphite, which he reported in 1981 and 1982. Akira Yoshino commissioned the fabrication of a batch of prototype lithium-ion cells in 1986, and Sony began mass producing lithium-ion batteries in 1991.
1991 ushered the Second Period (commercialization) in the history of lithium-ion batteries, which is reflected as inflection points in the plots "The log number of publications about electrochemical powersources by year" and "The number of non-patent publications about lithium-ion batteries" shown on this page.
Invention of essential constituent technologies To enable the successful commercialization of the LIB, Dr. Yoshino also invented essential constituent technologies including technology for fabricating electrodes and technology for assembling batteries.
Akira Yoshino commissioned the fabrication of a batch of prototype lithium-ion cells in 1986, and Sony began mass producing lithium-ion batteries in 1991. The lithium-ion battery (LIB) has been firmly established in a wide range of electronic applications, and LIB production now amounts to some US$1.0 billion.
The performance and capacity of lithium-ion batteries increased as development progressed. 1991: Sony and Asahi Kasei started commercial sale of the first rechargeable lithium-ion battery. The Japanese team that successfully commercialized the technology was led by Yoshio Nishi.

• 1974: Besenhard was the first to show reversibility of Li-ion intercalation into graphite anodes, using organic solvents, including carbonate solvents. • 1976: Stanley Whittingham and his colleagues at Exxon demonstrated what can be considered the first rechargeable "lithium-ion battery", although not a single component in this design was used in commercial lithium-ion batteries later. Whittingham''s cell was assembled in a charged state using lithium aluminum allo…
