LIBs have four major components: cathode (positive electrode), anode (negative electrode), electrolyte, and separator. The electrolyte carries lithium ions back and forth between the anode and cathode via the separator.
This comparison underscores the importance of selecting a battery chemistry based on the specific requirements of the application, balancing performance, cost, and safety considerations. Among the six leading Li-ion battery chemistries, NMC, LFP, and Lithium Manganese Oxide (LMO) are recognized as superior candidates.
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).
LIBs require four key materials, namely lithium, cobalt, nickel, and graphite. Because these materials are globally dispersed and face sourcing challenges in a setting of anticipated demand growth, comprehending their global value chains is vital.
