Abstract:
The correlation between the Coulombic efficiency and the change in the residual capacity of electrodes and batteries under conditions without any parallel irreversible reactions was formulated. It was shown that this relationship allows drawing certain conclusions regarding the nature of degradation processes during cycling.
