Which consequence results when electrostatic shielding fails in lithium-ion batteries?

A)Dendrite growth causing internal shorting
B)Electrolyte decomposition forming passivation layer
C)Increased electrode surface area impedance
D)Reduced lithium-ion diffusion coefficient

💡 Explanation

Dendrite growth arises from uneven ionic current distribution; because electrostatic shielding would normally repel Li+ ions towards uniform deposition, its failure causes localized high ion concentrations. This therefore leads to dendrites, rather than passivation, impedance increases or diffusion limits.
