    Measurements That Accelerate Battery Development

    FREE Webinar – Metrohm is a proud sponsor of this event.

    Material damage and defects in separators and collectors can ultimately cause thermal runaway and lead to failure of the cell. Improved design of these key components is vital for safer batteries, and proper testing early in the development process ensures high performance.

    In this webinar, battery expert Brian Morin, CEO of Soteria Battery Innovation Group, will reveal new architectures that lead to safer cell performance. Reza Fathi, Product Specialist from Metrohm Autolab, will discuss the use of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) for Li-ion battery analysis. Using case studies and real-world examples, they will also describe why performance-predictive electrical and electrochemical measurements are necessary to accelerate the development process.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • How to design separators and current collectors to deter thermal runaway
    • How to utilize bench-top measurements as screening tools during early cell development to reduce time and expense
    • How temperature-controlled impedance measurements lead to advanced materials analysis
    • Electrochemical techniques to test and evaluate Li-ion cells

    New Developments in Isothermal Microcalorimetry and ARC® Testing Methods

    FREE Webinar – THT is a proud sponsor of this event.

    This presentation describes two main types of calorimetric techniques which can be used to carry out performance and safety testing on batteries. These are isothermal calorimetry and adiabatic calorimetry.

    THT’s new Micro Battery Calorimeter is presented along with initial data from a prototype unit.  This device is focused on high sensitivity measurement which is required for coin and button cell samples which produce only milliwatts of heat during use. This is an example of an isothermal calorimeter system.

    The second half of the presentation covers battery testing methods for the ARC® adiabatic calorimeter system. The theoretical background of the test method is described and recommended practice for various types of testing are discussed.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • Principles of isothermal calorimetry for batteries
    • Introduction to the Micro Battery Calorimeter and initial data
    • Theoretical background to ARC® testing
    • Recommended ARC® testing practices

    BIS Tutorial Course 3/3: Battery Intelligence in New Product Introduction (NPI) for Transportation and Consumer Electronics

    FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.

    OEMs are faced with an ever growing list of challenges when designing batteries into their systems, from long qualification time, to increasingly complex systems and the lack of qualified battery engineers.

    In this webinar, we’ll review the battery and systems qualification process for transportation and consumer electronics, including specific reference performance tests such as hybrid pulse power characterization (HPPC), that are used for BMS development.

    We’ll then shift into how Battery Intelligence Systems (BIS) can both accelerate time to market for New Product Introduction (NPI), and can surface deeper insights about variability in batteries and packs to increase range, lower costs, and improve reliability.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • The state of OEM new product introduction (NPI)
    • Battery and system qualification
    • BMS development and hybrid pulse power characterization (HPPC)
    • Ensuring time to market for NPI
    • Extending range and lifetime with component variability assessment

    BIS Tutorial Course 2/3: Battery Intelligence in Research and Development (R&D)

    FREE Webinar – Voltaiq is a proud sponsor of this event.

    The development of new, improved battery systems is slowed by the long test times required to validate battery cycle life — three to six months for consumer electronics and multiple years for long-life applications such as transportation and energy storage.

    In this webinar, we’ll review how Battery Intelligence Systems (BIS) can enable accelerated development cycles and time to market. BIS can not only speed development cycles with automated background analytics; it can also unlock new insights with enhanced analytical techniques, helping you make better decisions faster.

    This webinar will focus on specific end-uses including fast-charge algorithm development, BMS algorithms and new materials development, and how BIS can accelerate optimization and new product introduction.

    This webinar will focus on the following key topics:

    • The state of the battery development ecosystem
    • The design of experiments (DoE) to optimize performance
    • Dramatic changes in workflow with Battery Intelligence System (BIS) Software
    • Enhanced analytics examples including differential capacity analysis (dQ/dV vs V) and on-line correlative analysis
    • BIS enabled faster development cycles and time to market
