Chinese and American researchers explore the role of cobalt in button battery 2032 to develop more effective cobalt-free cathodes

Currently, many automobile companies around the world are investing in the development of electric vehicles, which will help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Electric vehicles use large rechargeable button battery 2032 with high performance, durability and energy efficiency. However, in recent years, battery costs have continued to rise due to the shortage of raw materials, especially cobalt (Co), an important cathode component. Engineers and chemists have been looking for alternative materials to replace cobalt in ordinary cathodes for rechargeable button battery 2032. To effectively replace cobalt, these materials should have similar performance but at a lower cost or more accessible.

According to foreign media reports, researchers from Argonne National Laboratory in the United States and the Shenzhen Graduate School of Peking University in my country conducted a study to better understand the role of cobalt in rechargeable button battery 2032 and provide information for the design of new cobalt-free cathodes.

"We explore the role of cobalt in specially designed systems, such as cobalt-rich cathodes and cobalt-free cathodes substituted with manganese," the researchers said.

Many of the cobalt-free cathodes proposed so far contain large amounts of lithium or magnesium. Some of them are promising alternatives to cobalt-based cathodes, but are often not suitable for large-scale commercial use due to insufficient capacity and stability. Therefore, most research exploring cobalt-free alternatives has focused on layered oxide cathodes, such as nickel-rich layered oxide cathodes. Typically, nickel-rich layered oxide cathodes have high capacity and high energy density. However, directly replacing cobalt with nickel has proven to be unfeasible because it leads to a significant decrease in battery performance and thermal stability. In this study, the researchers wanted to gain a deeper understanding of why cobalt plays such an important role in battery cathodes. On this basis, they wanted to find alternative nickel-rich components that can achieve similar performance and design better cobalt-free cathodes for rechargeable button battery 2032.

The researchers used state-of-the-art methods to identify the intrinsic properties of cobalt and compare the related processes with those occurring in nickel-rich cobalt-free cathodes. Previous studies have shown that a large amount of nickel in the cathode may cause the battery capacity to decay faster. However, this study found that cobalt is actually more destructive than nickel at high voltages. "Our results show that cobalt has an undeniable use in rapid capacity and/or structural degradation, and cobalt is more destructive than nickel at high voltages," the researchers said. In addition, replacing cobalt with manganese can effectively mitigate the destructive effects and achieve better high-voltage performance.

Overall, the team found a series of morphological and structural degradation mechanisms that explain why the capacity of cobalt-rich cathodes decays rapidly over time. This study has important guiding significance for the design of high-performance, low-cost cobalt-free button battery 2032. Based on these findings, the researchers proposed a series of cobalt-free cathode materials and verified that these materials have good performance, which is expected to be applied to rechargeable button battery 2032 in the future and put into commercial use on a large scale.
