The limitations in potential for the electroactive material of the negative electrode are less important than in the past thanks to the advent of 5 V electrode materials for the cathode in lithium-cell batteries. However, to maintain cell voltage, a deep study of new electrolyte–solvent combinations is required.
Since lithium is more weakly bonded in the negative than in the positive electrode, lithium ions flow from the negative to the positive electrode, via the electrolyte (most commonly LiPF6 in an organic, carbonate-based solvent20).
Lithium (Li) metal is widely recognized as a highly promising negative electrode material for next-generation high-energy-density rechargeable batteries due to its exceptional specific capacity (3860 mAh g −1), low electrochemical potential (−3.04 V vs. standard hydrogen electrode), and low density (0.534 g cm −3).
Due to the smaller capacity of the pre-lithiated graphite (339 mAh g −1 -LiC 6), its full-cell shows much lower capacity than the case of Li 21 Si 5 (0.2–2 μm) (Fig. 6b), clearly indicating the advantage of the Li-rich Li-Si alloy as a promising lithium-containing negative electrode for next-generation high-energy LIBs.
The electrochemical reaction at the negative electrode in Li-ion batteries is represented by x Li + +6 C +x e − → Li x C 6 The Li + -ions in the electrolyte enter between the layer planes of graphite during charge (intercalation). The distance between the graphite layer planes expands by about 10% to accommodate the Li + -ions.
Mainly, the high solubility in aqueous electrolytes of the ZnO produced during cell discharge in the negative electrode favors a poor reproducibility of the electrode surface exposed to the electrolyte with risk of formation of zinc dendrites during charge. In order to avoid this problem, mixing with graphite has favorable effects.
