Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

With the growing demand for electrical energy storage, there is an urgent requirement for high-performance batteries. The properties of energy storage are among the key factors affecting the performance of batteries. Now, we plan to publish a Special Issue titled “Advanced Energy Storage Materials for Batteries”.

The topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the synthesis, preparation and characterization of advanced cathode and anode materials for metal ions (such as Li+, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Ca2+ and Al3+ et al) or metal batteries. The specific analytical techniques and theoretical and computational methods for energy storage materials are also welcome.

Kind regards,

Prof. Dr. Liangming Wei
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Materials is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

This article studies the doping of Li-rich cathode materials. Aluminum and iron were chosen as dopants. Li-rich cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries, which were composed of Li1.2Ni0.133Mn0.534Co0.133O2 with a partial replacement of cobalt (2 at %) by iron and aluminum, were synthesized. The dopants were introduced at the precursor synthesis stage by co-precipitation. The presence of Fe and Al in the composition of the synthesized samples was proved by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, X-ray diffraction analysis and X-ray microanalysis. The cathode materials were tested electrochemically. The incorporation of Al and Fe into the structure of lithium-enriched materials improved the cyclability and reduced the voltage fade of the cathodes. An analysis of the electrochemical data showed that the structural changes that occur in the initial cycles are different for the doped and starting materials and affect their cycling stability. The partial cation substitution suppressed the unfavorable phase transition to lower-voltage structures and improved the electrochemical performance of the materials under study. Full article

Aluminum hydride (AlH3) is a binary metal hydride with a mass hydrogen density of more than 10% and bulk hydrogen density of 148 kg H2/m3. Pure aluminum hydride can easily release hydrogen when heated. Due to the high hydrogen density and low decomposition temperature, aluminum hydride has become one of the most promising hydrogen storage media for wide applications, including fuel cell, reducing agents, and rocket fuel additive. Compared with aluminum powder, AlH3 has a higher energy density, which can significantly reduce the ignition temperature and produce H2 fuel in the combustion process, thus reducing the relative mass of combustion products. In this paper, the research progress about the structure, synthesis, and stability of aluminum hydride in recent decades is reviewed. We also put forward the challenges for application of AlH3 and outlook the possible opportunity for AlH3 in the future. Full article
