Discover the necessary materials for building better and cheaper batteries for a sustainable future

The search for renewable energy sources is one of the most vital steps towards a sustainable future. The rapid development of new energy technology has placed considerable pressure on the production of rechargeable batteries in recent years. Electrode materials, which provide the “heart” of the rechargeable battery, are therefore necessarily the focus of any efforts to produce cheaper, more and more sustainable battery-powered systems.

Electrode Materials in Energy Storage Technologies provides a comprehensive overview of all key electrode materials for rechargeable batteries. Beginning with an introduction to rechargeable battery technology, it moves to analysis of specific systems. Complete with an in-depth understanding of essential electrochemical mechanisms, it’s an indispensable guide to a core aspect of the ongoing energy revolution.

Electrode Materials in Energy Storage Technologies readers will also find:

• A focus on design, structure-property relationships, and applications of electrode materials
• Detailed discussion of materials including lithium, sodium, potassium, zinc, and more
• Numerous practical applications with an emphasis on safety, sustainability, and market trends

Electrode Materials in Energy Storage Technologies is ideal for material scientists and chemists of all kinds.

Liqiang Xu, Ph.D. He received his Ph.D. degree in inorganic chemistry from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2005 and has been working at Shandong University since then.
