Organic Electrodes

Part of the book series: Engineering Materials ((ENG.MAT.))

Abstract

The world is moving for electromobility as well as associated decarbonization. The era and community related to it are moving towards the fourth industrial revolution comprising of digital technology and electronic devices. The organic electrode materials (OEMs) obtained from biomass serve to be the best option for sustainable and green lithium batteries due to various features such as low costing, availability in large amounts, high sustainability, environmental compassion, and recyclability. The research on organic electrodes is mainly based on material level despite the performing ability of batteries. The current chapter focuses on the history of organic electrode materials and prospects of elevation, and the challenges faced by organic electrode materials for practical use in the form of density of OEMs and intrinsic electronic conductivity. Later the comprehensive optimization is performed. Finally, we have focused on developing high-quality stimulation for research to obtain future commercialization of OEMs.
