Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Advanced batteries play a crucial role in a number of industries, including portable electronics and electric vehicles. The selection of electrode materials (both cathode and anode materials) has a significant impact on the effectiveness and efficacy of these batteries. Researchers continue to investigate novel materials and technologies to enhance battery performance, safety, stability, rate capability, and energy density. As technology advances, the optimal selection of electrode materials will continue to play a crucial role in shaping the future of energy storage. This Special Issue aims to collect the most significant advancements in electrode materials for advanced batteries and their effect on battery performance. Further, this Special Issue aims to collect comprehensive reviews relevant to this field, not mini reviews. Content with over 7000 words and over 20 pages in the main text is welcome. Manuscripts can be submitted as per the guidelines of the Batteries journal.

In recent years, the evolution of lithium-ion batteries (LIB) has been propelled by the growing demand for energy storage systems that are lightweight, have high energy density, and are long-lasting. This review article examines the use of self-terminated oligomers with hyperbranched architecture (STOBA) as a key electrode additive for the superior performance of LIBs. STOBA has been found to have excellent electrochemical properties, including high specific capacity, low impedance, and good cycling stability when used as an additive in electrode materials. The article discusses the process of synthesis and characterization of STOBA materials, including their potential applications in LIBs as electrode material additives. The article also discusses current research on the optimization of STOBA materials for LIBs, including the use of different solvents, monomers, and initiators. Overall, the review concludes that STOBA materials possess huge potential as a next-generation additive for LIB safety. Full article
