Aging Mechanisms of Electrode Materials in Lithium-Ion Batteries for Electric Vehicles by Cheng Lin, Aihua Tang, Hao Mu, Wenwei Wang, Chun Wang

“…In this review, we give an interpretation of capacity/power fading of electrode-oriented aging mechanisms under cycling and various storage conditions for metallic oxide-based cathodes and carbon-based anodes. For the cathode of lithium-ion batteries, the mechanical stress and strain resulting from the lithium ions insertion and extraction predominantly lead to structural disordering. …”
