Lithium Ion Rechargeable Batteries Technical Handbook
occurring in lithium ion rechargeable batteries employing LiCoO2(lithium cobaltate) in cathodes and carbon in anodes are shown in Figure1. By means of the initial charging, which takes place during battery manufacture, lithium ions migrate from the lithium compound of the cathode to the carbon material of the anode. initial charge LiCoO 2+C →Li
