Figure 1 introduces the current state-of-the-art battery manufacturing process, which includes three major parts: electrode preparation, cell assembly, and battery electrochemistry activation. First, the active material (AM), conductive additive, and binder are mixed to form a uniform slurry with the solvent.
The new manufacturing technologies such as high-efficiency mixing, solvent-free deposition, and fast formation could be the key to achieve this target. Besides the upgrading of battery materials, the potential of increasing the energy density from the manufacturing end starts to make an impact.
However, the potential for battery integration technology has not been depleted. Increasing the size and capacity of the cells could promote the energy density of the battery system, such as Tesla 4680 cylindrical cells and BMW 120 Ah prismatic cells.
The importance of batteries for energy storage and electric vehicles (EVs) has been widely recognized and discussed in the literature. Many different technologies have been investigated , , . The EV market has grown significantly in the last 10 years.
These next-generation batteries may also use different materials that purposely reduce or eliminate the use of critical materials, such as lithium, to achieve those gains. The components of most (Li-ion or sodium-ion [Na-ion]) batteries you use regularly include: A current collector, which stores the energy.
Although the invention of new battery materials leads to a significant decrease in the battery cost, the US DOE ultimate target of $80/kWh is still a challenge (U.S. Department Of Energy, 2020). The new manufacturing technologies such as high-efficiency mixing, solvent-free deposition, and fast formation could be the key to achieve this target.
