Gaishi Automotive News What determines the cycle life of a battery? More importantly, how to extend battery cycle life? According to foreign media reports, an international research team led by the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) in the Netherlands found that local disorder of oxide cathode materials increases the number of charges and discharges of lithium-ion batteries.
Relevant research results were published in the journal Nature.

Among many types of rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion batteries are one of the most powerful and widely used batteries.
To electrically connect them, layered oxides usually serve as electrodes.
However, when batteries are charged, their atomic structure becomes unstable, which ultimately affects the battery’s cycle life.
