Aging studies of lithium-ion batteries are essential for understanding material degradation, which impacts performance and, consequently, battery lifespan. In this paper, we propose the use of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, differential capacity analysis, and electrochemical noise measurements to evaluate the effects of different C-rates (2C, C/2, and C/20) on a cell. We study aging up to 800 charge/discharge cycles. We demonstrate that aging is associated with a linear increase in electrode resistance, which correlates with capacity fading. Additionally, noise measurements indicate a rise in noise levels at low frequencies following a 1/fγ trend with 1<γ<2.
