LTO battery composition
and chemistry
Lithium Titanate (LTO) batteries are a unique type of lithium-ion battery that use lithium titanate (Li₄Ti₅O₁₂) as the anode material, unlike traditional lithium-ion batteries which typically use graphite as the anode. This distinct chemical composition gives LTO batteries several key advantages, including fast charging, superior safety, and exceptional cycle life. Here’s a breakdown of the LTO battery chemistry:
- Anode: Lithium titanate (Li₄Ti₅O₁₂)
- Cathode: Commonly lithium manganese oxide (LiMn₂O₄) or lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO₄), though other materials can also be used.
- Electrolyte: A lithium salt dissolved in an organic solvent.
- Separator: A porous material that allows lithium ions to pass through but keeps the anode and cathode from touching.
