The utilization of the reversible LiBN2 + 2 Li+ + 2 e- -> Li3BN2 electrochemical cell reaction leads to a voltage of 3.62 V (vs Li/Li$^{+}$), theoretical energy densities of 3251 Wh/kg and 5927 Wh/L, with capacities of 899 mAh/g and 1638 mAh/cm3, while the cell volume of alpha-Li3BN2 changes only 2.8% per two-electron transfer. These values are far superior to the best existing or theoretically designed intercalation or conversion-based posi"},"claims":{"count":0,"items":[],"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"source":{"id":"1404.0412","kind":"arxiv","version":1},"verdict":{"id":null,"model_set":{},"created_at":null,"strongest_claim":"","one_line_summary":"","pipeline_version":null,"weakest_assumption":"","pith_extraction_headline":""},"references":{"count":0,"sample":[],"resolved_work":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57","internal_anchors":0},"formal_canon":{"evidence_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"author_claims":{"count":0,"strong_count":0,"snapshot_sha256":"258153158e38e3291e3d48162225fcdb2d5a3ed65a07baac614ab91432fd4f57"},"builder_version":"pith-number-builder-2026-05-17-v1"}
