Lithium-ion batteries offer a contemporary solution to curb greenhouse gas emissions and combat the climate crisis driven by gasoline usage. Consequently, rigorous research is currently underway to improve the performance and sustainability of current lithium-ion batteries or to develop newer battery chemistry.
Despite these advantages, LIB still have some disadvantages, especially in terms of safety. LIB tend to overheat and can be damaged at high voltages . High heat can lead to thermal runaway and combustion in some cases. A comparison of battery types is given in Table 1. Table 1. Parameters of commercial batteries, .
In LIB, both lithium coating and overheating reduce the cycle life of the battery. The charge cut-off voltage of LIB is generally 4.2 V . Charge voltage above this value reduces the capacity and lifetime of the battery and causes safety vulnerability.
In the light of its advantages of low self-discharge rate, long cycling life and high specific energy, lithium-ion battery (LIBs) is currently at the forefront of energy storage carrier [4, 5].
The lower the temperature, the slower the ionic lithium transition rate, the more polarized the battery becomes, and the lower the performance of the LIB . At the same time, charging at too low temperature can lead to lithium plating, which involves safety and performance issues as seen above.
