Abstract
The major element that hinders the performance of batteries is the active element of the cathode electrode. There has been an effort to offer and study oxide composites centered on transition metal elements, with a target on those compounds that accommodate large movements of Li+ ions such that during redox reactions, energy can be transferred. Nevertheless, these lithium-insertion composites should satisfy physical, mechanical, and electrochemical properties. Consequently, material properties evaluation for lithium-ion batteries cathode electrode active material with high nickel content is presented. The properties, namely, hardness, tensile strength, compressive strength, electrical resistivity, density, and cost, are analyzed with the assistance of CES EduPack Software. Understanding Li(Ni1/2Co1/5Mn3/10)O2 cathode material properties is essential to predicting and simulating the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries with high reliability.
