Abstract:
A cell for an electrical energy store is provided, including a cell housing within which there is arranged an electrode and on the outer side of which there is arranged a terminal which is galvanically connected to the electrode, wherein an electrical securing element is connected in a current path between the terminal and the electrode for the purposes of galvanic separation of the electrode and of the terminal. The cell is characterized by having the securing element arranged outside the cell housing. In this way, it is possible in a simple manner for the state of charge of the cell to be checked, and also for the cell to be discharged, from the outside.
Abstract:
A method produces an electrochemical cell for a solid-state battery having a negative electrode, a positive electrode and a lithium-ion-conducting solid electrolyte arranged between the negative electrode and the positive electrode. The negative electrode has a layer of metallic lithium which directly adjoins the solid electrolyte. In order to produce the electrochemical cell, the layer of metallic lithium is heated until it softens before being joined together with the solid electrolyte. An electrochemical cell includes the negative electrode with a layer of metallic lithium which directly adjoins the solid electrolyte, and a layer of a lithium-metal alloy on the layer of metallic lithium.
Abstract:
A composite electrode is provided having a collector, the collector is coated with an electrode composition containing an active electrode material, a binding agent, and a conductivity additive such as conductive carbon black. The electrode composition has a concentration gradient along the direction of the electrode thickness in respect of the active electrode material and the conductivity additive, with the concentration gradient of the active electrode material increasing toward the collector, and the concentration gradient of the conductivity additive and the binder decreasing toward the collector. Two different methods of producing the composite electrode are also provided. A lithium-ion battery is further provided which includes a composite electrode having a collector, the collector is coated with an electrode composition containing an active electrode material, a binding agent, and a conductivity additive.
Abstract:
A method for applying a rupture element to a housing part of a battery cell, more particularly to a housing part provided for sealing a battery cell, includes the following steps: providing the housing part, wherein the housing part has an inner side facing the interior of the battery cell and an outer side facing the exterior of the battery cell. A hole is provided in the housing part, through which in the event of a malfunction, in which pressure in the battery cell reaches an inadmissably high level, pressure can escape into the surrounding area. A plate-shaped rupture element is provided, which is at least slightly larger than the hole. The plate-shaped rupture element is applied to the hole from the outer side such that it fully covers the hole and an edge region of the plate-shaped rupture element is joined all around to an edge region of the housing part, which extends around the hole, such that the plate-shaped rupture element fluidically seals the hole.
Abstract:
A method for the at least partial production of an electrical energy storage cell includes providing the electrode/separator. arrangement, providing a plastics foil of self-adhesive form, and applying the self-adhesive plastics foil to at least a subregion of the arrangement surface. The energy storage cell has a storage cell housing in which there is accommodated an electrode/separator arrangement which is required for the operation of the energy storage cell. The electrode/separator arrangement has a layer structure with a sequence of cathode layers and anode layers. Opposite cathode and anode layers there are in each case separated from one another by a separator layer which is in of a porous form. The electrode/separator arrangement has an arrangement surface.
