Basic Introduction to Pouch Lithium-ion Batteries
Lithium-ion batteries are secondary rechargeable batteries that primarily operate through the movement of lithium ions (Li+) between the positive and negative electrodes. During the charging and discharging process, Li+ ions shuttle between the two electrodes by intercalating and de-intercalating: when charging, Li+ ions de-intercalate from the positive electrode, pass through the electrolyte, and intercalate into…
