Question:
What is the difference between battery technology with addition of Yttrium, and batteries without Yttrium?
Answer:
Some manufacturers of LiFePO4 batteries complement the chemical structure of the composition of the element Yttrium (Y).
The chemical structure is in stead of LiFePO4 (LFP) changed to LiFeYPO4 (LFYP).
See the chemical composition LiFeYPO4 batteries according to the manufacturer:

The essential difference is in the behavior of chemical elements yttrium and iron. While iron is very susceptible to oxidation and reactions with other chemical compounds, the element yttrium is more chemically stable, not easy to to reach with other compounds.
