While the concept of a battery as a source of energy has been around for a long time, <a href=\"https:\/\/batteryuniversity.com\/article\/bu-101-when-was-the-battery-invented#:~:text=In 1836%2C John F.,that is still used today.\">possibly even 2,000 years going back to the Parthian Empire<\/a>, the first rechargeable battery was invented by French physicist Gaston Plante in 1859.<\/p><p>Using lead and acid, Plante created a technology that remains in use today, in regular car batteries, for instance \u2013 the kind used to start an engine, rather than power an electric vehicle. The main problem with the lead-acid battery is that the amount of electrical energy it can produce is low compared to its weight and volume.<\/p><p>The arrival of various kinds of nickel batteries from 1899 through the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century solved some of the lead-acid battery\u2019s efficiency issues \u2013 but presented other problems, including efficiency and environmental issues.<\/p><p>The real breakthrough came in the early 1990s with the introduction of the lithium-ion battery, which has been a gamechanger in consumer electronics because it is energy dense and lightweight. Although it has the disadvantage of losing charge slowly when not being used, many modern electronic products use more sophisticated and efficient reusable lithium-ion batteries because of their high electrical energy production compared to low-cost nonrechargeable batteries.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4641fe elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"a4641fe\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The lithium-ion revolution<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-045dddb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"045dddb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Let\u2019s take a closer look at how lithium-ion batteries, which are a type of widely used secondary battery work to better understand this widely used technology.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b37fd36 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b37fd36\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/09\/AUG-NO3-Infographic2\ucc28\uc804\uc9c0\ub9ac\ub274\uc5bc2.jpg\" data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"How Does a Lithium-Ion Battery Work?\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MjkxOTMsInVybCI6Imh0dHBzOlwvXC9uZXdzLnNhbXN1bmdjbnQuY29tXC91cGxvYWRcLzIuMFwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvc2l0ZXNcLzNcLzIwMjJcLzA5XC9BVUctTk8zLUluZm9ncmFwaGljMlx1Y2MyOFx1YzgwNFx1YzljMFx1YjlhY1x1YjI3NFx1YzViYzIuanBnIn0%3D\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"989\" src=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/09\/AUG-NO3-Infographic2\ucc28\uc804\uc9c0\ub9ac\ub274\uc5bc2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium_large size-medium_large wp-image-29193\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/09\/AUG-NO3-Infographic2\ucc28\uc804\uc9c0\ub9ac\ub274\uc5bc2.jpg 940w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/09\/AUG-NO3-Infographic2\ucc28\uc804\uc9c0\ub9ac\ub274\uc5bc2-233x300.jpg 233w, https:\/\/news.samsungcnt.com\/upload\/2.0\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/09\/AUG-NO3-Infographic2\ucc28\uc804\uc9c0\ub9ac\ub274\uc5bc2-796x1024.jpg 796w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-06b731d elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"06b731d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Powering up the market<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d0af5c9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d0af5c9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Already, smartphones and electric vehicles have created vast demand for lithium-ion batteries.
