For instance, Li-ion batteries mainly rely on the limited lithium resources (with lithium in the earth''s abundance of 0.006%), and the boom in Li-ion batteries leads to the rapid price rise of the lithium raw materials . Hence, the cost of lithium-ion batteries will become unattainable. Considering the possibility of resource depletion, the global academic community

Nano-silicon (nano-Si) and its composites have been regarded as the most promising negative electrode materials for producing the next-generation Li-ion batteries (LIBs), due to their ultrahigh theoretical capacity. However, the commercial applications of nano Si-based negative electrode materials are constrained by the low cycling stability and high costs. The
Among the lithium-ion battery materials, the negative electrode material is an important part, which can have a great influence on the performance of the overall lithium-ion battery. At present, anode materials are mainly divided into two categories, one is carbon materials for commercial applications, such as natural graphite, soft carbon,
As mentioned in BYD''s letter, in 2021, lithium battery raw materials will continue to rise, the price of cathode material lithium cobalt oxide will increase by more than 200%, the price of electrolyte will increase by more than 150%, and the supply of negative electrode materials will continue to be tight, resulting in a substantial increase in comprehensive costs. In the price adjustment
Unfortunately, they are comparatively expensive, unpredictable supply of raw materials [2], [3] due to uneven distribution and fluctuation of the price of lithium and transition metal precursors [4], [5]. Moreover, their limited cycle life and safety issues with organic electrolytes are still needed to be addressed [6], [7].

Get up-to-speed with our battery raw material prices, news, trends and forecasts. The price of lithium is falling, but some Western companies have recently announced more investments in the Lithium Triangle – a region of South America comprising parts of Argentina, Chile and Bolivia.
The raw material cost is estimated as 50% to 70% of the total cost whereas the cathode material is estimated at 22% . Therefore, lowering raw material costs by developing new chemistries of batteries would be auspicious in reducing the battery material cost in the future.
There are several battery chemistries available which have less anode material degradation due to their advanced properties. For instance, there is zero strain in the lithium-titanate oxide (LTO) batteries at the time of intercalation and deintercalation of the Li-ions .
Battery raw materials like lithium carbonate (Li 2 CO 3), lithium hydroxide (LiOH), nickel (Ni) and cobalt (Co) have experienced significant price fluctuations over the past five years. Figures 1 and 2 show the development of material spot prices between 2018 and 2023.
The largest single contributor to the cost of battery cells is the materials used in them, especially the cathode materials. In addition to lithium, the transition metals manganese, iron, cobalt and nickel are used in particular.
