Malvern Panalytical; Electrochemical Cells with Variable Temperature Environments

Tuesday, 20 June 2023

Malvern Panalytical have recently developed some electrochemical cells with a variable temperature environment for in operando measurements to characterise the charging performance of the battery cell. To understand the electrochemical behavior of the battery at the atomic level, Malvern Panalytical has introduced easy-to-use X-ray diffraction (XRD) solutions for in situ and in operando battery cells characterization.

 

With the VTEC for coin shaped battery and VTEC-trans for pouch cell battery, it’s now possible to investigate the process of lithium intercalation, anode/cathode material phase transitions, and the state of charge (SoC) of the battery during the charge circles at a controlled temperature from -10°C to 70°C. Malvern Panalytical’s unique hard X-ray detection system, GaliPIX^3D with the CdTe sensor, provides the highest data quality on thick batteries considered unmeasurable previously. Above all, we provide comprehensive software suite specialized in analyzing large data sets to reveal intuitively the hidden dynamics of the electrode materials and providing valuable insights into the intricacies of battery performance.
