As the core part of a solid-state lithium–sulfur battery, the solid electrolyte dramatically affects battery performance. A good SSE must have the following characteristics: (1) A high ion mobility number is required, and when the ion mobility number is low, the cell will have severe local polarization, resulting in uneven Li + deposition and lithium dendrite generation [ 13 ].
The implementing act(s) to be adopted under Art. 77(9) should clarify the meaning of the wording "detailed composition" for the electrodes and electrolyte. Information requirements related to

Lithium-ion batteries (also abbreviated as Li-ion batteries), is a secondary (rechargeable) battery where the lithium is only present in an ionic form in the electrolyte.
Current commercial lithium-ion batteries have been unable to meet these requirements, and the development of secondary batteries with greater energy density has become an urgent necessity.

The General Product Safety Regulation covers safety aspects of a product, including lithium batteries, which are not covered by other regulations. Although there are harmonised standards under the regulation, we could not find any that specifically relate to batteries.
While there is not a specific OSHA standard for lithium-ion batteries, many of the OSHA general industry standards may apply, as well as the General Duty Clause (Section 5(a)(1) of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970). These include, but are not limited to the following standards:
The technical documentation should contain information (e.g. description of the lithium battery and its intended use) that makes it possible to assess the lithium battery’s conformity with the requirements of the regulation. The regulation lists the required documentation in Annex VIII.
Lithium batteries are subject to various regulations and directives in the European Union that concern safety, substances, documentation, labelling, and testing. These requirements are primarily found under the Batteries Regulation, but additional regulations, directives, and standards are also relevant to lithium batteries.
The requirements include: The Inland Transport of Dangerous Goods Directive requires that the transportation of lithium batteries and other dangerous goods must be done according to the requirements of the Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Road (ADR).
Certain Industrial batteries, electric vehicle batteries, LMT batteries and SLI batteries containing lithium or other listed substances in active materials should be accompanied by documentation concerning their recycled content share.
