American Laboratory featured article: Ion-Exchange Selectivity and HRAMS Elucidate Lithium-Ion Battery Degradation Pathways
Review the details of a study that identifies various classes of non-targeted and unknown anionic degradation products obtained from surface deposits of lithium ion batteries using ion chromatography (IC) and IC coupled with high resolution accurate mass spectrometry (HRAMS).
Lithium-Ion Battery Failure Analysis
Understanding battery failures requires analysis of the three main battery components (cathode, anode and electrolyte), individually and how they interact together as a system.

Powering a sustainable future with mass spec
Creating higher-performing and more easily reusable and recyclable lithium-ion batteries requires understanding the mechanistic pathways of battery degradation. This knowledge will help us understand how these pathways might be inhibited to create longer-lasting, safer energy storage.
Created and originally published in The Analytical Scientist.
Trace Degradation Analysis of Lithium-Ion Battery Components
Rechargeable lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are key components for portable electronics, medical devices, industrial equipment and automobiles. They are light weight, provide high energy density and recharge without memory effects. The first step in understanding fundamental processes and degradation mechanism in LIBs is understanding how they operate.
