5. What exactly is a “Lithium Ion” battery (1)

6. CONSTRUCTI ON For cylindrical cells the anode and cathode foils are cut into two long strips which are wound on a cylindrical mandrel, together with the separator which keeps them apart, to form a jelly roll (Swiss roll in the UK). Cylindrical cells thus have only two electrode strips which simplifies the construction considerably. A single tab connects each electrode to its corresponding terminal, although high power cells may have multiple tabs welded along the edges of the electrode strip to carry the higher currents.

12. Major changes to the electrolyte, anode, separator and cathode are all expected. Some of these have occurred by now (2014) Next Generation Materials (1) Source: Lithium-ion Batteries for Hybrid and All-Electric Vehicles: the U.S. Value Chain. October 5, 2010.

14. ADVANTAGES High energy density - potential for yet higher capacities. Does not need prolonged priming when new. One regular charge is all that's needed. Relatively low self-discharge - self-discharge is less than half that of nickel-based batteries. Low Maintenance - no periodic discharge is needed; there is no memory. Specialty cells can provide very high current to applications such as power tools.

15. LIMITATIONS Requires protection circuit to maintain voltage and current within safe limits. Subject to aging, even if not in use - storage in a cool place at 40% charge reduces the aging effect. Transportation restrictions - shipment of larger quantities may be subject to regulatory control. This restriction does not apply to personal carry-on batteries. Expensive to manufacture - about 40 percent higher in cost than nickel- cadmium. Not fully mature - metals and chemicals are changing on a continuing basis.

16. DANGERS OF LITHIUM ION Lithium-ion batteries can be dangerous under some conditions and can pose a safety hazard since they contain, unlike other rechargeable batteries, a flammable electrolyte and are also kept pressurized. Because of this the testing standards for these batteries are more stringent than those for acid-electrolyte batteries, requiring both a broader range of test conditions and additional battery-specific tests. This is in response to reported accidents and failures, and there have been battery-related recalls by some companies.
