Study on the influence of electrode materials on energy storage power station in lithium battery.

Lithium batteries are promising techniques for renewable energy storage attributing to their excellent cycle performance, relatively low cost, and guaranteed safety performance. The performance of the LiFePO4 (LFP) battery directly determines the stability and safety of energy storage power station operation, and the properties of the internal electrode materials are the core and key to determine the quality of the battery. In this work, two kinds of commercial LFP batteries were studied by analyzing the electrical properties and material properties of the electrodes. After performing the rate and cycle performance tests of the battery cell, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscope, x-ray diffraction, and inductively coupled plasma were used to explore the performance of electrode materials to establish the correlation between the battery performance and the electrochemical reaction law of the internal materials and further to judge the influence of the key material properties on the battery performance. This work opens up an avenue for technical supervision of energy storage power stations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
