Controllable long-term lithium replenishment for enhancing energy density and cycle life of lithium-ion batteries by Liu, Ganxiong, Wan, Wang, Nie, Quan, Zhang, Can, Chen, Xinlong, Lin, Weihuang, Wei, Xuezhe, Huang, Yunhui, Li, Ju, Wang, Chao

“…To address this challenge, we employed a sustained in situ lithium replenishment strategy that involves the systematic release of additional lithium inventory through precise capacity control during long-term cycling. Our method utilizes a lithium replenishment separator (LRS) coated with dilithium squarate-carbon nanotube (Li2C4O4–CNT) as the lithium compensation reagent. …”
