The commercially dominant metal, iron, doesn’t have the right electrochemical properties for an efficient battery, he says. But the second-most-abundant metal in the marketplace—and actually the most abundant metal on Earth—is aluminum.
Iron: Battery Material Key to Stability in LFP Batteries Iron’s role in lithium iron phosphate batteries extends beyond stability. As a cathode material, it ensures good electrochemical properties and a stable structure during charging and discharging processes, contributing to reliable battery performance.
To achieve sustainability, batteries must operate beyond their current capabilities in terms of longevity, reliability, and safety. In addition, the chemicals and materials used in the battery must be cost-effective while achieving large-scale production.
Aluminum, while not typically used as an anode material, is a key player in lithium-ion batteries. It serves as the current collector in the cathode and for other parts of the battery.
