Design and Processing for High Performance Li-Ion Battery Electrodes

Dear Colleagues,

I warmly invite you to publish original research or review papers in this Special Issue.

The potential topics of this Special Issue include, but are not limited to:

• Material synthesis approaches for high-performance Li-ion battery electrodes at laboratory scales and upscaling to assess commercial viability using large-scale methods (solvo/hydrothermal processes and co-precipitation in CSTR reactors).
• The characterization and study of crystal structures and phase transitions for high-performance cathode materials.
• Cobalt-free cathode materials development for future automotive applications.
• Li-rich NMC and high-voltage materials.
• Battery electrodes with low-tortuosity porosity and high capacity.

Dr. Rachid Essehli
Guest Editor

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Batteries is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2700 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
