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.
The anode and cathode electrodes play a crucial role in temporarily binding and releasing lithium ions, and their chemical characteristics and compositions significantly impact the properties of a lithium-ion cell, including energy density and capacity, among others.
In the literature, several works have focused on the lithium-ion battery cost. One of the most complete works on the topic is the freely available Battery Performance and Cost (BatPac) model of the Argonne National Laboratory 9, 10, which contains both a cell design model and a cell cost analysis model.
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).
Lithium layered cathode materials, such as LCO, LMO, LFP, NCA, and NMC, find application in Li-ion batteries. Among these, LCO, LMO, and LFP are the most widely employed cathode materials, along with various other lithium-layered metal oxides (Heidari and Mahdavi, 2019, Zhang et al., 2014).
The demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) has skyrocketed due to the fast-growing global electric vehicle (EV) market. The Ni-rich cathode materials are considered the most relevant next-generation positive-electrode materials for LIBs as they offer low cost and high energy density materials.
