TUT5: Lithium-Ion Cell Design
MONDAY, 13 JANUARY | 18:30 - 20:30 (DINNER PROVIDED)
ABOUT THIS TUTORIAL:
This tutorial provides an overview of lithium-ion cell design. Common cell designs are discussed with emphasis on pros and cons including safety aspects. Major cell chemistries (NCA, NCM532, NCM622, NCM811 versus graphite or graphite/silicon lends) are
considered in terms of energy density. Cell components (positives, negatives, electrolytes, separators, collectors, packages) are covered as well as design principles (porous electrodes, tab effect, balancing, porous electrode design) and approaches
for analyzing aging and abuse.
TOPICS TO BE COVERED:
- Common cell designs
- Major cell chemistries
- Cell components
- Design principles
- Approaches to analyzing aging and abuse
