How does isostatic pressure (ISP) processing scale in multilayer cell stacks?

This work shows how isostatic pressure (ISP) processing scales in multilayer cell stacks with focus on pressure distribution, microstructure evolution, and mechanical and electrochemical properties. Over a range of ISP conditions, we observe consistent and improved performance against baseline materials with ISP processing.

Why is Taining the crystal structure important in a pouch cell?

The current collectors on taining the crystal structure during processing, such as isostatic these calendered electrodes also show significant damage pressing, is critical for the successful performance of pouch cell through rupture and cracking (Figure S11). In contrast, the ISP- batteries.

Can a pressure-sensing film be used in a dummy cell?

Employing a pressure-sensing film within the construction of the dummy cell, we enable a direct, in-situ measurement of pressure distribution as a function of the isostatic pressing conditions. For the single-layer pouch cells, the optical images for the pressure films from within the pouch cells are shown in Figures 2 A–2C.

How vacuum seal is used in a pouch cell?

It was observed that the vacuum seal of the Overall, ISP has seen a steady growth in being employed for pouch cell itself, along with the double-bagging approach used solid-state battery manufacturing for proof-of-principle demon- to isolate the pouch cell from the isostatic pressing fluid (oil), strations with single-layer cells.

How does isostatic pressing affect dummy multilayer pouch cells?

The impact of isostatic pressing was studied extensively with dummy multilayer pouch cells. Subsequently, the electrodes from the isostatically pressed pouches were extracted and compared to the baseline electrodes using extensive morphological as well as electrochemical testing.

Is pressure distribution uniform for multilayer pouch cells?

Other than that, the pressure distribution is exceptionally uniform for all multilayer pouch cells. This is the first time that the pressure distribution for multilayer cells has been showcased, and the re-sults show that the ISP can be effectively used to distribute pres-sure uniformly over large pouch cells.
