Global Market for Nanomaterials in Batteries and Supercapacitors to 2030 - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "The Global Market for Nanomaterials in Batteries and Supercapacitors" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

With global energy demands ever-increasing, allied to efforts to reduce the use of fossil fuel and eliminate air pollutions, it is now essential to provide efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly energy storage devices. The growing market for smart grid networks, electric vehicles (EVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) is also driving the market for improving the energy density of rechargeable batteries.

Rechargeable battery technologies (such as Li-ion, Li-S, Na-ion, Li-O2 batteries) and supercapacitors are among the most promising power storage and supply systems in terms of their widespread applicability, and tremendous potential owing to their high energy and power densities. LIBs are currently the dominant mobile power sources for portable electronic devices used in cell phones and laptops.

Although great advances have been made, each type of battery still suffers from problems that seriously hinder the practical applications for example in commercial EVs and PHEVs. The performance of these devices is inherently tied to the properties of materials used to build them. Nanotechnology and nanomaterials will play an important role in all aspects of the energy sector:

Lithium-ion batteries have shown great promise in portable electronics and electric vehicles due to their long lifespan and high safety. However, hurdles relating to the sluggish dynamics and poor cycling stability restrict the practical application. Nanostructured materials, due to their significantly decreased particles size, are thought to effectively address these issues.

Advantages of nanomaterials include:

• Nanoscale shortens lithium-ion diffusion length.
• New reactions at nanoscale are not possible with bulk materials.
• Nanoscale combining with electronic conductive coating improves electronic transport.
• Decreased mechanical stresses due to volume change lead to increased cyclability and lifetime.
• Nanoscale enhances the electrode capability of Li storage.
• Ordered mesoporous structure favours both Li storage and fast electrode kinetic.
• Nano-structure enhances cycle stability.

Nanomaterials are also finding application in Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries, sodium-ion batteries, lithium-air batteries, Magnesium batteries and paper, flexible and stretchable batteries. Nanomaterials, especially carbon nanomaterials, have been widely investigated as effective electrodes in supercapacitors due to their high specific surface area, excellent electrical and mechanical properties.

Applications of nanomaterials in batteries and supercapacitors include:

• Electrodes in batteries and capacitors.
• Anodes, cathodes and electrolytes in Li-ion (LIB) batteries.
• Inks printable batteries and supercapacitors.
• LIB cathodes.
• Anode coatings to prevent corrosion.
• Nanofiber-based polymeric battery separators.
• Biodegradable green batteries.
