Outline

Improvement of mass and electron conductivity is essential for a high-performance battery. However, the nano-structure and contacting interfaces of conductive additive and binder are not understood enough at present. In this study, mass and electron transfer are measured and simulated by considering actual aggregation and contact phase resistance. The correlation between coating and drying processes of electrode layer and maldistribution of a cell component is understood and modeled. By the knowledge above, control technology of phase interface for electron and mass transfer is developed. I aim at new technical innovation for various batteries.
