Study of multi-walled carbon nanotubes for lithium-ion battery electrodes

▶ Addition of MWCNTs to the electrode significantly enhances the rate performance of NCM based cathodes. ▶ TiO2 based electrodes show improved rate capability, if cycled in the potential window of 1-3 V. ▶ The substitution of carbon black by lower amounts of MWCNTs to the electrode composition improves both energy density and power density of lithium-ion cells.
