| Summary: | A new approach of lithium electrochemical (de)intercalation material has been put forward. This
approach requires a two-compound (physically or chemically) composite in which one is a chemically
and electrochemically stable and porous (tunnel, cage, layer, etc.) compound such as clay or zeolite,
and the other is a chemically and electrochemically stable and metallic compound such as graphite,
metal powder or black carbon. Neither does the redox couple in this composite absolutely exist nor
does the redox reaction, which is associated with electrochemical charge and discharge processes when
this composite is used as an cathodic electrode in a lithium battery cell. In this paper, we show the
results of the lithium electrochemical intercalation process in both black carbon-mixed zeolite and clay
electrodes. In these solid electrodes, black carbon serves to delocalize (transport) electrons for balancing
the charges while zeolite and clay offer the neutrally reversible sites for lithium ions. This approach
can hopefully become a guide for the designing of new intercalation material and so will be very important
in the application of the lithium rechargeable battery. |
