UCI and national lab researchers develop a cobalt-free
Working with researchers at four U.S. national laboratories, Huolin Xin, UCI professor of physics & astronomy, has found a way to fabricate lithium
Can Cobalt Be Eliminated from Lithium-Ion Batteries?
In this Viewpoint, we discuss why using cobalt in cathodes is unsustainable in the long run and highlight the features of cobalt-free cathodes. The cost of cathodes largely depends on the cost of raw
Cobalt-free Cathode Could Lead to Safer, Longer
Irvine, Calif., Sept. 21, 2022 – Researchers at the University of California, Irvine and four national laboratories have devised a way to make lithium-ion battery
An overview of cobalt-free, nickel-containing cathodes for Li-ion batteries
This review summarizes alternative cathode chemistries with no cobalt and reduced nickel content for high-energy Li-ion batteries targeting sustainable growth in the electric vehicle market.
Cobalt-free batteries could power cars of the future
MIT researchers have now designed a battery material that could offer a more sustainable way to power electric cars. The new lithium-ion battery
Next-Generation Cobalt-Free Cathodes – A Prospective Solution to
The present review summarizes the science and technology gaps and potential of numerous cobalt-free Li-ion cathodes including layered, spinel, olivine, and disordered rock-salt systems.
Battery technology and recycling alone will not save the electric
We show that cobalt-free batteries and recycling progress can indeed significantly alleviate cobalt supply risks in the long run; however, a cobalt shortage between 2028 and 2033
Cobalt-free cathode materials for the new generation of
One of the research objectives within the Lithium-ion battery field is the development of new high-energy-density cathode materials that do not
Cobalt‐Free Cathode Materials: Families and their
This review article is the first to synthesize and present the progress of Co-free cathodes made with Li-rich oxides, Ni-rich layered oxides and spinel
Cobalt-free cathode for lithium-ion batteries
Researchers offer a new mixture of metallic elements to serve as lithium-ion cathodes. This ''high-entropy doping strategy'' is part of an effort to remove cobalt -- and expensive and...
