What Is A High Rate Battery

High-rate batteries generally refer to lithium batteries. Lithium-ion batteries are rechargeable high-rate batteries that mainly rely on lithium ions to move between the positive and negative electrodes to work. During charging and discharging, Li+ is intercalated and deintercalated back and forth between the two electrodes: when recharging the battery, Li+ is deintercalated from the positive electrode and inserted into the negative electrode via the electrolyte, and the negative electrode is in a lithium-rich state; the opposite is true during discharge. Generally, batteries containing lithium elements are used as electrodes. It is a representative of modern high-performance batteries.
