Abstract

There is no single lithium ion battery. With the variety of materials and electrochemical couples available, it is possible to design battery cells specific to their applications in terms of voltage, state of charge use, lifetime needs, and safety. Selection of specific electrochemical couples also facilitates the design of power and energy ratios and available energy. Integration in a large format cell requires optimized roll-to-roll electrode manufacturing and use of active materials. Electrodes are coated on a metal current collector foil in a composite structure of active material, binders, and conductive additives, requiring careful control of colloidal chemistry, adhesion, and solidification. But the added inactive materials and the cell packaging reduce energy density. Furthermore, degree of porosity and compaction in the electrode can affect battery performance.

USFOE: Extended Summary - Lithium ion batteries and their manufacturing challenges

Conference Daniel, Claus

There is no one lithium ion battery. With the variety of materials and electrochemical couples at our disposal as shown in the previous talks, we have the opportunity to design battery cells specific for their applications. Such applications require optimization of voltage, state of charge utilization, lifetime needs, and safety considerations. Electrochemical couples allow for designing power and energy ratios and available energy for the application. Integration in a large format cell requires optimized roll to roll electrode manufacturing and active material utilization. Electrodes are coated on a current collector in a composite structure comprised of active material, binders, andmore »« less
Innovative manufacturing and materials for low cost lithium ion batteries

Technical Report Carlson, Steven

This project demonstrated entirely new manufacturing process options for lithium ion batteries with major potential for improved cost and performance. These new manufacturing approaches are based on the use of the new electrode-coated separators instead of the conventional electrode-coated metal current collector foils. The key enabler to making these electrode-coated separators is a new and unique all-ceramic separator with no conventional porous plastic separator present. A simple, low cost, and high speed manufacturing process of a single coating of a ceramic pigment and polymer binder onto a re-usable release film, followed by a subsequent delamination of the all-ceramic separator andmore »« less

Aligned carbon fibers-carbon nanotube-polymer-based composite as lithium-ion battery current collector

Journal Article Sharma, Jaswinder ; Demchuk, Zoriana ; Polyzos, Georgios ; ... - Journal of Materials Processing Technology

High energy density demand is pushing the development of high-voltage cathode materials, which necessitates improved electrochemical stability of other battery components such as binders, electrolytes, and current collectors. Current collectors are considered to be an inactive component but still play an essential role. In this study, a metal-free composite film containing directionally aligned carbon fiber (CF), carbon nanotube (CNT), and polymer (P) was developed to replace aluminum foil as a cathode current collector, which relies on forming an Al₂O₃ layer to ensure electrochemical stability at high voltage. Here, each component in the new cathode current collector played a functional role.more »« less

Material and Structural Design of Novel Binder Systems for High-Energy, High-Power Lithium-Ion Batteries

Journal Article Shi, Ye ; Zhou, Xingyi ; Yu, Guihua - Accounts of Chemical Research

Developing high-performance battery systems requires the optimization of every battery component, from electrodes and electrolyte to binder systems. However, the conventional strategy to fabricate battery electrodes by casting a mixture of active materials, a nonconductive polymer binder, and a conductive additive onto a metal foil current collector usually leads to electronic or ionic bottlenecks and poor contacts due to the randomly distributed conductive phases. When high-capacity electrode materials are employed, the high stress generated during electrochemical reactions disrupts the mechanical integrity of traditional binder systems, resulting in decreased cycle life of batteries. Thus, it is critical to design novel bindermore »« less

Manufacturing of Monolithic Electrodes from Low-Cost Renewable Resources

Journal Article McNutt, Nichiolas William ; Rios, Orlando ; Johs, Alexander ; ... - SAMPE Journal

Lignin, a low-cost, biomass derived precursor, was selected as an alternative for carbon based free standing anodes in Li-ion batteries. Industrially scalable melt-spinning and melt-blowing synthesis methods were developed at Oak Ridge National Laboratory that are compatible with industrially viable production. Engineering studies predict that LCFs can be manufactured at $3/lb using these technologies, which compares favorably to $12/lb for battery grade graphite. The physical properties of lignin carbon fibers, specifically the tunable electrochemical and thermal transport, are suitable for energy storage applications as both an active material and current collector. The elimination of inactive components in the slurry-coated electrodesmore »« less
