Liquid lithium salts with graphite anodes and composite metal cathodes are the dominant combination for battery cells, with variants using nickel, manganese and cobalt or iron phosphate. These have energy densities of up to 250 kWh/kg, but incremental improvements in the electrolytes and battery materials are constantly driving that up.
Graphite and its derivatives are currently the predominant materials for the anode. The chemical compositions of these batteries rely heavily on key minerals such as lithium, cobalt, manganese, nickel, and aluminium for the positive electrode, and materials like carbon and silicon for the anode (Goldman et al., 2019, Zhang and Azimi, 2022).
The most studied batteries of this type is the Zinc-air and Li-air battery. Other metals have been used, such as Mg and Al, but these are only known as primary cells, and so are beyond the scope of this article.
