  • 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 ...

  • What is the problem with solid-state batteries?
    What is the problem with solid-state batteries? Feb 18, 2025
    What are solid-state batteries? Solid-state batteries are a type of battery that uses solid electrolytes to replace traditional liquid or gel-type electrolytes. Compared to conventional lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries have a more stable structure, offering higher energy density, safer performance, and faster charging speed. The main problems with solid-state batteries: Technical Aspects Low ionic conductivity: The strong interaction between ions and high migration energy barriers in solid electrolytes result in lower ionic conductivity compared to liquid electrolytes, leading to slow charging and discharging rates and rapid capacity fading. Lithium dendrite growth: Even with solid electrolytes of high mechanical strength, it is difficult to completely inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites, which can form on the surface of the negative electrode and even penetrate through the solid electrolyte, causing battery short circuits. Solid-solid interface issues: The solid-solid interface in solid-state batteries has a small contact area, and volume changes during electrode charging and discharging can disrupt the interface structure, worsening contact, increasing interface impedance, and potentially causing chemical reactions to form unstable interface layers. Mechanical performance challenges: Solid materials in solid-state batteries are more prone to cracking when subjected to mechanical stress, such as during battery assembly or during vibrations or collisions in use, affecting battery performance and safety. Poor low-temperature performance: Solid-state batteries may experience more pronounced performance degradation in low-temperature environments, affecting their use in cold regions. Cost Aspects High material costs: Expensive materials such as lithium metal and special ceramic electrolytes, including high-priced lithium sulfide, are typically used, resulting in costs significantly higher than those of liquid lithium batteries. High manufacturing costs: The production process is complex, requiring precision processes and equipment, such as high-density stacking and high-precision electrolyte coating, as well as special production environments, with low production efficiency, leading to higher manufacturing costs. Environmental and Recycling Aspects Resource and energy consumption issues: From raw material extraction, processing, to manufacturing, significant natural resources and energy are consumed. The mining and refining of new materials can damage the environment, and the high energy consumption during production increases carbon emissions. Recycling challenges: The recycling and disposal of discarded solid-state batteries pose challenges. Their internal structures are complex, containing multiple metals and chemicals. Improper recycling can pollute the environment, and recycling technologies and processes are immature and costly.
