The race to net zero necessitates the development of fast-charging and sustainable rechargeable batteries with long lifetimes and high capacity. One promising solution are lithium-ion batteries (LIB) with nickel-rich cathodes. Previously, cobalt was the primary transition metal used in LIB cathodes, however nickel is preferred due to its greater abundance, lower cost and more ethical mining conditions. Current electrolyte formulations constrain the energy density of LIBs with nickel-rich cathodes by promoting degradation during charge. This project will focus on developing new, advanced electrolytes to increase capacity and cycle life of sustainable LIBs.

实现净零排放的竞赛要求开发具有长寿命和高容量的快速充电和可持续可充电电池。一种很有希望的解决方案是具有富镍阴极的锂离子电池（LIB）。以前，钴是锂离子电池阴极中使用的主要过渡金属，但由于镍的丰度更高，成本更低，开采条件更道德，因此镍是首选。目前的电解质配方通过促进充电过程中的降解来限制富镍阴极的锂离子电池的能量密度。该项目将重点开发新型先进电解质，以提高可持续锂离子电池的容量和循环寿命。
