Electrodes to Cells

PD772320

Abstract
Content

This course explains how a lithium-ion cell can be designed, sized, and produced for a specific capacity and energy. The key steps in the selection and production of the main components of the cell, i.e. electrodes, separator, and electrolyte, are discussed. The slurry formulation, mixing, coating, drying, calendaring, cutting, stacking, electrolyte formulation/injection, sealing/packing, and formation cycles are detailed both in terms of machineries and the processing parameters.

Learning Objectives
Content

  • Describe each step within the production of a Li-ion battery cell
  • Discuss the functions of the electrolyte and separator
Who Should Attend
Content
  • Process, Quality, or Design engineers
