Abstract:

This Technology relates to development of a nanostructured cathode material for a new type of lithium-ion batteries. This material is 33% lower in cost and has the characteristics of (comparable preparation, safety, longevity, low environmental impact), critical for use in large capacity systems: (stationary power and plugin hybrid vehicles).
