3.WHY SOLID STATE Li-ion BATTERIES ARE A REPLACEMENT TO
CONVENTIONAL Li-ion BATTERIES IN CERTAIN APPLICATIONS?
3.WHY SOLID STATE Li-ion BATTERIES ARE A
REPLACEMENT TO CONVENTIONAL Li-ion
BATTERIES IN CERTAIN APPLICATIONS ?
KEY NOTES:
1. PORTABLE AND LESS SPACE
2. SAFETY AGAINST MECHANICAL DAMAGE (IF USED IN AUTOMOBILES OR AIRCRAFTS)
3. NO LEAKAGE
4. INFLAMMABLE AND SAFE
5. DURABLE
TO CAP IT ALL,
◦ ALL THESE FEATURES ARE PROVIDED BY SOLID STATE BATTERIES
4. WHAT MATERIALS ARE REQUIRED TO
MAKE SOLID STATE Li-ion BATTERIES?
KEY NOTES:
1. SOLID STATE ELECTROLYTE
2. SOLID STATE ANODE
3. SOLID STATE CATHODE
SOLID ELECTROLYTE
REQUIREMENTS FOR SOLID ELECTROLYTE TO BE USED IN Li-ion BATTERIES:
1. CLEAN INTERFACES
2. FINE GRAINS
3. BETTER GRAIN-TO-GRAIN BONDING
ADVANTAGES:
1. NO NEED FOR CONTAINMENT AS IN LIQUID ELECTROLYTE
2. IMPROVED SAFETY AND DURABILITY
DISADVANTAGES:
1. LOWER IONIC CONDUCTIVITY
2. LOWER CURRENT DENSITY
SOLID ELECTROLYTE
THEY CAN BE OF TWO TYPES:
1. POLYMER ELECTROLYTE:
LESSER FABRICATION COST AND ENHANCED FLEXIBILITY
LOWER Li-ion CONDUCTIVITY
LOWER STIFFNESS
NOT SUITABLE FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE
2. CERAMIC ELECTROLYTE:
SUITABLE FOR HIGH TEMPERATURE
HIGHER STIFFNESS TO BE USED IN HEAVY DUTY APPLICATIONS
5.WHY SPS A BETTER METHOD TO PRODUCE
MATERIALS OF Li-ion BATTERIES THAN
CONVENTIONAL SINTERING ?
REASONS:
FAST PROCESS,FINISHED PRODUCT READY IN MINUTES AS COMPARED TO CONVENTIONAL
SINTERING WHICH TAKES HOURS TO COMPLETE
5.WHY SPS A BETTER METHOD TO PRODUCE
MATERIALS OF Li-ion BATTERIES THAN
CONVENTIONAL SINTERING ?
REASONS:
REDUCING POROSITY
FINER AND NANOSIZED GRAINS IN ORDER TO ATTAIN MECHANICAL STABILITY (SEE FIG)
CONVENTIONAL PLASMA
