The working principle of lithium batteries is also different when compared with conventional lithium batteries. If the lithium battery is now called lithium-ion batteries, the latest lithium battery is a lithium-air battery. This is because the battery release oxygen at the time of the release of energy.
If the lithium-ion batteries using lithium peroxide, as quoted from Ubergizmo latest prototype battery uses lithium superoxide as a means of energy storage. As a result, the battery also has a much higher efficiency than ordinary lithium batteries.
Additionally, when the battery in the charging process, lithium ions will be positive and will be connected with the oxide. Meanwhile at the time of the release of energy and lithium oxide will separate and the release of stored energy.
Just as in lithium-ion batteries, lithium-air batteries is equally a closed system. In use, these batteries do not require supplemental oxygen or parts replaced. Simply perform battery charging current as the battery that we usually encounter.
However, the development of lithium-air battery is still being done, particularly to improve durability bateraai. Even so, the researchers are optimistic that the problem of battery life is going to be addressed. Obviously with constantly experimenting.
