A lithium-ion battery is a type of rechargeable battery in which lithium ions move from the negative electrode to the positive electrode during discharge and back when charging. It uses an intercalated lithium compound as one electrode material, compared to the metallic lithium in a non-rechargeable lithium battery. It is commonly used as rechargeable batteries for portable electronics, due to its high energy density, tiny memory effect and low self-discharge. It has major applications in military, battery electric vehicle and aerospace sectors. The main component that is used commonly in these batteries is lithium cobalt oxide which offers high energy density but with safety risks. Lithium iron phosphate, lithium ion manganese oxide battery, and lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide offer lower energy density but longer lives and less possibility of fire or explosion. Such batteries are widely used for electric tools, medical equipment, and other roles. The newer lithium–sulfur batteries promise the highest performance-to-weight ratio.
