26, scientists find the root cause of lithium battery performance decline.
A recent study in the United States found that the so-called solid electrolyte interface (SEI), the fundamental reason for the performance decline of lithium batteries, is not an electronic insulator as previously thought, but behaves like a semiconductor. SEI acts like a guardian, allowing lithium ions to enter and exit the anode freely. At this point, the researchers concluded that minimizing the organic components in SEI will make the battery have a longer service life.(First Electric)
