AION Engineering INC No matter how optimized your internal cell structure, electrode design, or N/P ratio might be, the ultimate bottleneck in freezing temperatures is the electrolyte. Just as a flawless, 1,000-horsepower engine is utterly useless if the diesel in its fuel tank has frozen, a lithium-ion battery faces the exact same fate. The electrolyte … Read more
At the 2025 International Battery Seminar & Exhibit in Orlando FL (USA), Prof. Jeff Dahn (Dalhousie University) highlighted how Si-carbon composite active materials prepared through monosilane deposition on carbon matrices exhibit very promising cycling stability. Prof. Dahn emphasized that the quantity of liquid electrolyte has to be very carefully controlled in such high-energy cells to … Read more
Author: rhd instruments GmbH & Co. KG Introduction As the solid-state battery field matures and more attention is turned to detailed characterization of interfaces and individual redox processes, the need for a suitable reference electrode (RE) system emerges, in order to enable three-electrode measurements [1, 2, 3]. While the use of standardized REs is well-established … Read more
In the ever-evolving world of lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries (SSB) are seen as the next generation of lithium-ion batteries. In an SSB, the liquid electrolyte used in conventional lithium-ion cells is replaced by a solid electrolyte capable of conducting lithium. There are three main families of solid electrolytes: oxides, sulphides, and polymers. SSBs promise to … Read more
