Nowadays the power efficiency of many portable devices such as mobile phones, tablets or speakers is extremely related to the use of rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, which have a high working voltage and a high energy density. In recent years, their application has expanded in various fields such as electric bicycles, electric vehicles, and hybrid vehicles. For this reason, the particle characterization of electrode materials and possible additives is very important for the quality control as well as for the optimization of manufacturing processes in order to produce safe and long lasting batteries.
