Electrode structure is an important factor determining the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries. It comprises physical structure, particle size and shape, electrode material and pore distribution.
The same principle as in a Daniell cell, where the reactants are higher in energy than the products, 18 applies to a lithium-ion battery; the low molar Gibbs free energy of lithium in the positive electrode means that lithium is more strongly bonded there and thus lower in energy than in the anode.
In commercialized LIBs, Li insertion materials that can reversibly insert and extract Li-ions coupled with electron exchange while maintaining the framework structure of the materials are used as both positive and negative electrodes.
Since lithium is more weakly bonded in the negative than in the positive electrode, lithium ions flow from the negative to the positive electrode, via the electrolyte (most commonly LiPF6 in an organic, carbonate-based solvent20).
