Argonne National Laboratory has been looking into lithium-ion cells in great detail, and its scientists have found a nano-scale deterioration mechanism to add to the reasons that fast-charged Li-ion batteries degrade in electric vehicles. In use, lithium ions move in and out of the anode, which is usually made from graphite particles. The ions slide …
