Description

Metal Oxides in Batteries addresses the development of high-performance electrode and electrolyte materials essential for next-generation energy storage devices. With increasing demand for efficient, stable, and sustainable batteries, this reference fills the need for a comprehensive analysis of metal oxides-based materials and their roles in various battery chemistries. The book covers fundamental and applied aspects of metal oxides, including insertion and conversion type anodes, cathodes, catalysts for metal–air batteries, and electrolytes for solid-state batteries. It also discusses doping, coating, three-dimensional structuring, and nanocrystallization strategies to optimize performance. This book will be of interest to materials scientists, inorganic chemists, electrochemists, and industry researchers working with the synthesis, design, and application of metal oxide materials for batteries.
