Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been considered a disruptive technology with huge potential to help reduce climate change and move towards a more sustainable future. Stationary forms of energy storage and electric vehicles are at the core of the increasing global demand for LIBs.
Unlocking the power of LIBs presents an exciting opportunity to support greater energy sustainability. Seizing the potential of the lifespan, capacity, and stability of LIBs provides the competitive edge you need to produce high-performance batteries. However, this is a challenging task because hygroscopic, toxic, flammable, and electrostatically charged compounds make producing and testing LIBs cumbersome and slow. Adopting solutions to address these challenges and deliver accurate and efficient workflows in your manufacturing process is key.
This application note explains how METTLER TOLEDO laboratory balances and weighing accessories can help simplify the research and manufacturing processes of LIBs.
In this application note, you will learn:
- How to efficiently work with lab balances in restricted environments
- How to enhance the capacity of LIBs through electrode synthesis and water/moisture content analysis
- How to handle electrostatic charges during weighing
- Why moisture content matters in LIBs
