TWAICE Vision Summit 2024: The influence of cell designs on battery aging
April 10, 2024
The influence of cell designs on battery aging
Sophie Solchenbach, Battery and Pack Developer at BMW, gave a presentation at the TWAICE Vision Summit 2024 entitled "The influence of cell designs decision on the aging behavior of large-format lithium-ion cells".
Sophie analyzed the causes of lithium plating, attributing it to electrolyte motion. As she pointed out: “This low electrolyte cells confirm our theory that electrolyte motion is the reason for the salt gradient build up and lithium plating”
