Disadvantages Of Lithium-ion Batteries

1. Aging
Unlike other rechargeable batteries, the capacity of lithium-ion batteries will slowly decline, which is related to the number of uses and temperature. This decline phenomenon can be expressed by a decrease in capacity or an increase in internal resistance. Because it is related to temperature, it is easier to reflect in electronic products with high operating current. Replacing graphite with lithium titanate appears to extend lifetime.
2. Recovery rate
About 1% of new ex-factory products need to be recycled for various reasons.
3. Intolerance to overcharging
When overcharging, the excessively intercalated lithium ions will be permanently fixed in the crystal lattice and cannot be released again, resulting in short battery life.
4. Intolerant to over-discharge
During over-discharge, the electrode deintercalates too many lithium ions, which can lead to the collapse of the crystal lattice, thereby shortening the life.
