Customer ServiceRed phosphorus (RP) is a promising anode material for alkali-ion batteries due to a high theoretical capacity at low potentials when alloying with lithium, sodium, and potassium. Most alloy anode materials display large volume changes during cycling, which can lead to particle fracturing, low Coulombic efficiency, loss of electrical contact, and ultimately poor
Customer ServiceA selective leaching process is proposed to recover Li, Fe, and P from the cathode materials of spent lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) batteries. It was found that using stoichiometric H2SO4 at a low concentration as a leachant and H2O2 as an oxidant, Li could be selectively leached into solution while Fe and P could remain in leaching residue as FePO4,

Customer ServiceSince the early ''90s, the cost of a lithium-ion battery has fallen by more than 97% per kilowatt-hour, While lithium iron phosphate (LFP) did not have the energy density of a cobalt cathode, its materials, iron and phosphorus, were far cheaper. LFP batteries also proved to be very stable, making them less of a fire risk, and they could last for a very large number of
Customer Servicein alkali-ion batteries. INTRODUCTION As Li-ion battery (LIB) production capacity increases, the cost per kWh will be ever more dictated by the cost of raw materials.

They conclude that by 2050, demands for lithium, cobalt and nickel to supply the projected >200 million LEVs per year will increase by a factor of 15–20. However, their analysis for lithium-iron-phosphate batteries (LFP) fails to include phosphorus, listed by the Europen Commission as a “Critical Raw Material” with a high supply risk 2.
The cumulative phosphorus demand for light-duty EV batteries from 2020 to 2050 is in the range of 28–35 Mt in the SD scenario (Fig. 1c ). However, there are considerable uncertainties related to this phosphorus demand.
We agree with Spears et al. 2 that, if not managed properly, this could result in short term supply chain challenges and competition for phosphorous between food and non-food applications with potentially negative consequences for the battery industry.
This equates to about 25.5 kg phosphorus per electric battery (i.e., (0.72 Mt lithium per year/126 M batteries per year) × 4.46). Most countries are reliant on phosphorus imports to meet their food demands.
