Thanks to lithium’s relative instability and atomic structure, it is easy to form ... leads to the synthesis of cobalt oxide, which causes damage to the electrodes. Letting the voltage potential ...

These help to break up the spent cathode material from the batteries -- lithium-coated nickel cobalt manganese oxide (NCM). The NCM particles are mixed with an iron(II) salt, sodium oxalate ...
