To close this gap, we aim to provide an early detection method of separator defects in the battery production and evaluate high-potential tests. For that, partial discharge was measured with a high-potential test on dry battery cell stacks consisting of anode, separator, and cathode layers.
We present a non-invasive procedure for quality control of battery separators in the early stage of the production line. In this method we apply a high voltage on the dry electrode assembly and measure transient partial discharge events.
The battery separator is one of the most essential components that highly affect the electrochemical stability and performance in lithium-ion batteries. In order to keep up with a nationwide trend and needs in the battery society, the role of battery separators starts to change from passive to active.
The major role of the battery separator is to physically isolate the anode from the cathode while allowing mobile Li-ions to transport back and forth . Unfortunately, two technical challenges associated with separator puncture and significant thermal shrinkage of polymer separators threaten the overall safety of batteries.
In punch test of the whole battery cells, due to the friction from cathode and anode particles, the separator is mostly expected to fail in Mode A, and not to reach Mode B. With the start of thinning and appearance of transparent section, friction would lead to instant localization.
Within the scope of this work, we evaluated a high-potential test for early detection of separator defects in the battery production chain. For this, partial discharge was measured on dry battery cell stacks consisting of anode, separator, and cathode layers.
