News — Lithium ion battery

A typical lithium-ion battery consists of two current collectors, an anode, a cathode, a separator and electrolyte. Current collectors work as a support for electrode materials. They are also electrical conductors between electrode and external circuits. For lithium-ion battery, various current collectors are used such as Al, Cu, Ni, Ti, and stainless steel. Within the above materials, Al and Cu are the most commonly used materials as current collectors. Al is used for a cathode current collector and Cu is used as an anode current collector. Al and Cu current collectors can further be categorized into foil, meshed, foam and...

January 21-22, 2020 2nd Li-Ion Solid Electrolyte & Lithium Metal (Liquid & Solid electrolyte) Rechargeable Cells Manufacturing Seminar (USA), Livermore, USA,  This seminar focuses on the technology, design and manufacturing of rechargeable Lithium ion solid state electrolyte & lithium metal (solid & liquid electrolyte) cells. In practical sessions, cell assembly will be performed in hands-on training by starting with raw materials and going through to the final cell assembly, test and characterization. During this seminar, members from Ampcera Inc. will give a presentation titled "Materials for Solid-State Electrolytes".  The latest Ampcera solid electrolyte materials and technologies to be highlighted in this presentation include...
