The Li-Air Battery is one of the newest technologies currently available on the market. This product has been around for several years already because it was initially developed in Japan, but this technology is now available throughout the world. As Li-air batteries gain popularity, the Li-Air battery manufacturers are expanding their customer base to supply Li-air batteries to their global customer base. One of the advantages of Li-Air batteries compared to other rechargeable batteries is that the Li-Air battery can be recharged many times before reaching its degradation point, making this type of battery very useful. The lithium metal in this battery passes the positive charge to the negatively charged polymer, and the cycle begins again at the cathode. This type of battery has no moving parts, and therefore, there is no need for any lubrication except in the cases of li-lion and li-polymer.
The Li-Air battery consists of two main components, a positive terminal, and a negative terminal. The lithium anode, also known as the lithium sulfate or lithium metal anode, is the negative electrode of a Li-Air battery. When charging a Li-Air battery, the positive terminals are connected to an air compressor that pumps fresh air into the cell. When the Li-Air battery has reached the end of its maximum charge, it is then discharged into the vehicle's battery tray.
