Abstract
A composite electrode is a composite of conductive materials of at least a first material and a second material, wherein the first material undergoes a parasitic reaction in a region where the second material is stable, and the first material and second material are stable at the first material's nominal voltage. An exemplary electrode is a cathode comprising lithium manganese oxide (LMO) and lithium iron phosphate (LFP).
Claims5
A composite electrode, comprising a composite of at least a first material and a second material, wherein the first material and the second material are stable at the first material's nominal voltage and the second material's nominal voltage is higher than that of the first material.
