Abstract

An improved lithium-ion or lithium-polymer battery that is capacity-fade resistant. The battery includes an anode comprised of graphite where density of the graphite is in a range from 1.2 to 1.5 g/c3; and the battery further has a cathode that is comprised of LiNiO2 present at a density in a range from 3.0 to 3.3 g/c3. The battery also includes an electrolyte and a separator between the anode and cathode, and the separator is coated with PVDF such that the anode, cathode, and separator are held together to form the electricity-producing battery. The ratio by weight of LiNiO2 to graphite present in the battery is preferably no greater than 2.0 to 1.
