Abstract: A method for manufacturing a current collector for an electrode of a battery cell includes providing a wire mesh current collector including a plurality of first wires and a plurality of second wires that overlap to form a plurality of mesh joints. A diameter of the plurality of first wires and the plurality of second wires is in a range from 4 μm to 100 μm. The method includes coating the wire mesh current collector with a metal coating by immersing the wire mesh current collector in a bath including a metal salt.

The first layer includes a first ferrite phase volume. The second and third layers include a second ferrite phase volume greater than the first ferrite phase volume. The gradient steel may also include a fourth layer near the second layer and a fifth layer near the third layer. The fourth and fifth layers may each include a third ferrite phase volume greater than the second ferrite phase volume. The gradient steel may also include a sixth layer near the fourth layer and a seventh layer near the fifth layer. The sixth and seventh layers may each include a fourth ferrite phase volume greater than the third ferrite phase volume.

Abstract: A method of making a cold plate includes stacking three aluminum sheets on top of each other while each of the three aluminum sheets is generally flat. An edge of the three aluminum sheets are secured together. A top one of the aluminum sheets is welded to a middle one of the aluminum sheets at a plurality of first locations and a bottom one of the aluminum sheets is welded to the middle one of the aluminum sheets at a plurality of second locations different than the plurality of first locations. A pressurized medium is supplied between the top one of the aluminum sheets and the bottom one of the aluminum sheets to separate the top one of the aluminum sheets from the bottom one of the aluminum sheets and deform the middle one of the aluminum sheets.
