Abstract A review of the prevalent degradation mechanisms in Lithium ion batteries is presented. Degradation and eventual failure in lithium-ion batteries can occur for a variety of dfferent reasons. Degradation in storage occurs primarily due to the self-discharge mechanisms, and is accelerated during storage at elevated temperatures. The degradation and failure during use conditions is generally accelerated due to the transient power requirements, the high frequency of charge/discharge cycles and differences between the state-of-charge and the depth of discharge influence the degradation and failure process. A step-by-step methodology for conducting a failure analysis of Lithion batteries is presented. The failure analysis methodology is illustrated using a decision-tree approach, which enables the user to evaluate and select the most appropriate techniques based on the observed battery characteristics. The techniques start with non-destructive and non-intrusive steps and shift to those that are more destructive and analytical in nature as information about the battery state is gained through a set of measurements and experimental techniques.

ABSTRACTThe demand for a stable and compatible redox shuttles for use in lithium-ion batteries has prompted us to explore strategies to tune and improve the properties of redox shuttles. We have studied over 50 new diarylamine derivatives synthesized in our laboratory including one compound in which we introduced trifluoromethyl groups (–CF3) at the positions para to the nitrogen atom in N-ethylphenothiazine (EPT). The high electronegativity of the CF3 group raises the oxidation potential, and its incorporation also significantly increases solubility in battery electrolyte. Here we report 3,7-bis(trifluoromethyl)-N-ethylphenothiazine (BCF3EPT) as a new redox shuttle, which we have observed to have the highest reported solubility in battery electrolyte of all redox shuttles that maintain extended overcharge performance. We have compared its performance with 1,3-di-tert-butyl-2,5-dimethoxybenzene (DBB), EPT, and other robust redox shuttles. In our hands, overcharge cycling of BCF3EPT far surpasses any reported redox shuttle, and – because it can be dissolved at higher concentrations – it tolerates faster charging rates than both DBB and EPT.
