Abstract As lithium-ion batteries continue to gain prominence across a wide range of applications, the development of high-performance electrode materials has become a central research priority. Flame aerosol synthesis (FAS) has emerged as a promising approach for fabricating electrode materials due to its rapid, scalable, and environmentally friendly characteristics. This technique enables the production of high-purity, nanoscale materials with precise control over composition, morphology, and structure, making it particularly advantageous for tailoring electrode properties. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advances in the application of FAS for lithium-ion battery electrodes. It first outlines the fundamental principles, system configurations, and inherent benefits of FAS. The subsequent sections explore its implementation in cathode materials, including monometallic systems such as LiCoO2 and LiFePO4, as well as ternary compounds such as NCM and NCA. The review also addresses the synthesis of anode materials, covering both intercalation-type materials (e.g., graphite, Li4Ti5O12) and conversion-type materials (e.g., metal oxides). Finally, it concludes with a critical discussion of current challenges and perspectives on the future development of FAS in the context of next-generation lithium-ion batteries.
