The Application of Isothermal Microcalorimetry to the Study of Parasitic Reactions in Lithium Ion Batteries
(2015)In an ongoing effort to advance the understanding of how electrolyte composition impacts the performance and lifetime of lithium ion cells, this work introduces the use of isothermal microcalorimetry as a tool to measure ... -
HIGH PRECISION COULOMETRY AS A TECHNIQUE FOR EVALUATING THE PERFORMANCE AND LIFETIME OF LI-ION BATTERIES
(2011-08-25)The aim of this thesis is to develop a better understanding about the degradation mechanisms occurring within lithium-ion cells which eventually lead to their failure. An introduction to the components and operation of ... -
Studies of the effects of electrolyte additives on the performance of lithium-ion batteries
(2016-01-14)Electrolyte additives are an effective way to improve the lifetime and performance of Li-ion cells. Electrolyte additives can modify the solid electrolyte interphase layers on the positive and/or negative electrodes, ... -
STUDY OF ELECTROLYTE ADDITIVES IN LI-ION BATTERIES USING ELECTROCHEMICAL IMPEDANCE SPECTROSCOPY ON SYMMETRIC CELLS
(2013-08-29)Electrolyte additives are generally used in commercial Li-ion cells to improve capacity retention and calendar life. Although it is apparent that electrolyte additives play an important role, the details of how they work ...
