Lithium Battery Coating Process: Main Causes of A&B Surface Misalignment and Related Improvement Measures Apr 24, 2025
Lithium Battery Coating Process: Main Causes of A&B Surface Misalignment and Related Improvement Measures
During the lithium battery coating process, misalignment of the A and B surfaces is a critical yet often overlooked issue that directly impacts battery capacity, safety, and cycle life. This misalignment manifests as deviations in coating areas or uneven thickness between the front and back surfaces, potentially leading to risks such as lithium plating and electrode sheet fracture. This article will analyze the multi-dimensional causes from equipment, process, material, and other aspects, while sharing key improvement measures to enhance battery quality consistency. 1. Main Causes of A&B Surface Misalignment 1.1Equipment Factors Insufficient installation accuracy of backup roller/coating roller: Horizontal deviation, coaxial misalignment, or installation errors lead to coating displacement. Positioning error of the coating head: Inadequate encoder/grating ruler precision or sensor signal drift. Abnormal tension control: Uneven tension during unwinding/spooling causes foil stretching, deformation, or wrinkles. 1.2 Material Factors Uneven ductility: Variations in foil ductility result in loss of control over coating gap. Inadequate surface treatment: Surface oxides affect paste adhesion, indirectly causing positional deviation. 1.3Slurry Factors Excessive viscosity: Poor leveling results in slurry accumulation and misalignment. Significant surface tension differences: Uneven edge shrinkage of A/B side slurries. 1.4Process Parameters Coating speed disparity: Different speeds between the two sides lead to inconsistent leveling rates. Inconsistent drying conditions: Temperature differences in A/B side ovens cause varying substrate shrinkage. 2 Improvement Measures 2.1Equipment Optimization Regularly calibrate coaxiality and horizontal alignment of coating rollers and backup rollers. Replace high-precision encoders and grating rulers to ensure coating head positioning error ≤±0.1mm. Optimize tension control systems (e.g., PID closed-loop control) to maintain substrate tension fluctuation ≤±3%. 2.2Foil Material Control Select foils with consistent ductility (e.g., copper/aluminum foil with uniform tensile strength). Enhance foil surface treatment processes (e.g., plasma cleaning or chemical passivation). 2.3Slurry Adjustment Adjust slurry viscosity to optimal leveling range (anode: 10–12 Pa·s; cathode: 4–5 Pa·s). Add surfactants (e.g., PVP or SDS) to balance surface tension differences between A/B side slurries. 2.4Process Parameter Optimization Ensure A/B side coating speeds are consistent, with speed deviation <0.5 m/min. Implement segmented temperature-controlled drying (low-temperature stage for stress relaxation, high-temperature stage for rapid curing), maintaining temperature difference ≤5℃. 3. Specific Troubleshooting Procedures 3.1Equipment Inspection Use a laser interferometer to detect parallelism between coating rollers and backup rollers (error ≤0.02 mm/m). Check servo motor and sensor signal stability (avoid signal drift exceed...
  • Analysis Approach for Low Capacity Issue of Battery Cells
    Analysis Approach for Low Capacity Issue of Battery Cells Apr 15, 2025
    The determination of low battery capacity (low capacity) for battery cells is based on a straightforward comparison between the post-formation (post-charging/discharging cycle) capacity and the designed capacity value. If the capacity measured after the formation process is lower than the designed value, the first response should be to confirm whether there are errors in the formation process settings (such as discharge current, charging time, cut-off voltage, and formation temperature). ①If the formation step settings are correct, it is necessary to change the testing point and re-perform the formation process on the battery cell to check if there are issues with the formation equipment or channels. ②Assuming no abnormalities are found in the formation data after changing the equipment, then the original equipment is likely problematic. ③If the re-test still shows low capacity, it can be confirmed that the low-capacity issue truly exists. After confirming the existence of low capacity, it is necessary to further determine the frequency and severity of the low-capacity occurrences to grasp the actual situation of low capacity from an overall perspective. This requires a more systematic approach. Before conducting a systematic analysis, it is advisable to first disassemble the re-charged low-capacity battery cells to inspect the interface. If no issues are found, it is likely due to insufficient positive electrode coating weight or inadequate design margin. If there are interface problems, it may be due to other issues in the manufacturing process or design. Next, we will investigate the causes of low capacity from the design end and the process manufacturing end. I. Design End Material system compatibility: In particular, the compatibility between the negative electrode and electrolyte has a significant impact on battery cell capacity. For newly introduced negative electrodes or electrolytes, if repeated tests show that each battery cell experiences lithium plating and low capacity, there is a high likelihood of material mismatch. The reasons for mismatch may include: ①Inadequate density, thickness, or instability of the SEI (Solid Electrolyte Interphase) film formed during formation; ②Possible delamination of the graphite layer caused by PC (propylene carbonate) in the electrolyte; ③Excessively high designed areal density or compaction density, making the battery cell unable to adapt to high-rate charging and discharging. Adequacy of capacity design margin: ①Starting from the gravimetric capacity of the positive electrode material: Due to errors in positive/negative electrode coating, formation cabinet accuracy, and adhesive effects on capacity, a certain capacity margin must be reserved during design. For new materials, accurate assessment of the gravimetric capacity of the positive electrode in the specific system is crucial. The same positive electrode material may not exhibit the same gravimetric capacity when paired with different negative ...
  • What is COV in lithium-ion battery coating?
    What is COV in lithium-ion battery coating? Mar 26, 2025
    What is COV The COV (Coefficient of Variation) in lithium-ion battery coating is a statistical indicator used to quantify the consistency of the coating process. It is calculated using the formula: COV = (Standard Deviation σ / Mean) × 100%. By eliminating differences in dimensions, this indicator reflects the dispersion degree of the dataset. A lower COV value indicates better coating uniformity. How to Evaluate Coating Quality Using COV Evaluation of Coating Surface Density Consistency The COV directly reflects the degree of fluctuation in coating surface density. For example, a COV of 0.5% for coating surface density indicates that the standard deviation of the data is 0.5% of the mean value. Industry standards are as follows: COV ≤ 0.3%: Extremely high surface density consistency. 0.3% < COV < 0.5%: Current mainstream level. COV > 0.5%: Process optimization is required. This indicator directly impacts cell capacity design. For instance, with a COV of 0.5%, a 3σ corresponds to a fluctuation of 1.5%, and the minimum cell capacity design needs to be set at 98.5% of the mean value. Analysis of AB Surface Coating Uniformity By using in-situ resistance testing methods (such as the BER2500 device), the resistance of the A-side, B-side, and total through-resistance of the electrode are measured respectively, and the COV value of each resistance is calculated. The larger the COV, the more uneven the distribution of the conductive network in the coating. For example, in a double-sided coating process, if there is a significant difference in the COV of AB surface resistance, it may be due to uneven distribution of conductive agents caused by slurry sedimentation or different drying rates, which may further lead to lithium plating or reduced cycle life of the battery. Optimization Directions for Process Parameters Slurry Stability: Changes in slurry viscosity and solid content directly affect the coating COV. It is necessary to ensure that the slurry has no sedimentation and stable fluidity. Drying Control: Excessively high or low temperatures can cause coating cracks or incomplete drying, affecting surface density consistency. Equipment Precision: Slit extrusion coating technology is more suitable for reducing COV due to its closed system and high-precision control. Precautions Sensitivity to Extreme Values: COV is susceptible to outliers. It is necessary to combine data cleaning or supplement other indicators (such as CPK) for comprehensive evaluation. Multidimensional Verification: In addition to surface density, it is recommended to combine COV values of resistance, thickness, and other parameters to comprehensively evaluate coating quality.
  • In the rolling process, why does the positive electrode use hot rollers and the negative electrode uses cold pressing?
    In the rolling process, why does the positive electrode use hot rollers and the negative electrode uses cold pressing? Mar 07, 2025
    This is mainly due to three reasons: differences in material characteristics between the cathode and anode, varying process effects and performance requirements, and different temperature sensitivities of binders. 1.Differences in Material Characteristics Between Cathode and Anode The cathode materials (such as LiFePO4, NCM) are hard and poorly conductive, and hot rolling can effectively enhance the compaction effect: the high hardness of particles leads to high compaction resistance (the compaction resistance of the cathode is four times that of the anode), and hot rolling softens the PVDF binder to enhance the bonding force between the active material and the current collector. Hot rolling can reduce pole piece rebound by about 50%, reduce rolling force by up to 62% (depending on the specific material system and process capabilities), and simultaneously improve the distribution of conductive agents, enhancing electron conduction efficiency. The anode's graphite is low in hardness and prone to plastic deformation, but excessive compaction can easily lead to particle crushing: secondary cold rolling adjusts thickness and pore structure in stages, reducing stress concentration and avoiding particle fracture caused by a single high pressure. Secondary rolling can make the pore distribution more uniform, reducing the expansion rate from 5.00% to 4.47% after cycling and improving cycle stability. 2.Process Effects and Performance Requirements Optimization of cathode hot rolling: Hot rolling at 100°C significantly reduces pole piece resistance (by 2.1%) and thickness rebound rate (by 50%), while increasing the peak peel strength. Hot rolling requires less rolling force when thinning pole pieces, and thickness uniformity is easier to control (uniformity of roller surface temperature is required to be high, as it deteriorates at 120°C). Advantages of anode secondary cold rolling: Secondary cold rolling gradually increases compaction density, avoiding a decrease in peel strength caused by a single high pressure (e.g., peel strength after one-time rolling is 0.298N vs. remaining stable at 0.298N after secondary rolling). The lateral and longitudinal elongation rates stabilize at 0.27% and 1.17%, respectively, reducing the risk of pole piece cracking. 3.Binder and Temperature Sensitivity The cathode's PVDF maintains good viscosity at high temperatures (40~150°C), and hot rolling promotes crosslinking with active substances, enhancing bonding strength. The anode's aqueous binder (such as CMC/SBR) is heat-sensitive, and high temperatures may cause degradation. Cold rolling maintains chemical stability, avoiding a decrease in peel strength. Due to the cathode's hardness and poor conductivity, hot rolling is required to improve compaction and electrical performance; anode secondary cold rolling balances the need for plastic deformation with structural integrity, avoiding particle crushing and stabilizing peel strength. The differences in processes between the ...
