Stage‐Specific Roles of Deep Eutectic Solvents in Recycling of Spent Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) offer tunable acidity, redox, and coordination properties for selective recycling of spent lithium‐ion battery cathodes. Through co‐dissolution, single‐ and two‐metal separations, DESs enable sustainable recovery of critical metals for closed‐loop regeneration of battery‐grade materials, advancing a circular economy for ...
