Nearly 85% of battery costs are driven by the electrode, a thin-film composite that remains a significant bottleneck in manufacturing due to reliance on costly equipment, high operating expenses, and toxic solvents. Ateios Systems, a leader in battery component innovation, will present an overview of electrode manufacturing, comparing solvent-based, solvent-free, and dry-processing technologies. Central to this discussion is Ateios’ groundbreaking RaiCure™ process, which enables solvent- and forever-chemical-free production of RaiCore™ electrodes. The recently released High Voltage Lithium Cobalt Oxide (HV LCO) electrode, powered by RaiCure™, offers a 20% improvement in battery capacity (175–200 mAh/g vs. 150 mAh/g). Ateios and its production partners can produce nearly 200 MWh of electrodes that are accessible to cathode suppliers, battery OEMs, and electronics OEMs for purchase.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Introduction to battery slurry mixing and electrode coating
• Pros/cons of existing & emerging (solvent-free/dry) electrode manufacturing solutions
• Performance & production data of RaiCure-based electrodes
• Inception to production of Ateios’ electrode manufacturing services

Battery Selection Tutorial Course 2/3: Beyond the Standards: Device-Specific Testing
After choosing your cell and manufacturer (Part 1 of this series), most likely, they will have passed the tests of various standards organizations. However, depending on your operating environment, you may need to go above and beyond the baseline to ensure your product operates as intended. This webinar is Part 2 in a three-part series and will review a variety of factors to consider in your device-specific testing, including designing tests to predict the outcomes of various user-abuse scenarios, understanding the mechanisms of gas generation, capacity retention based on different voltage windows, and what happens if you need to cycle your cells outside of their operating range (outside in an Arizona summer or Minnesota winter, for example).
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• User-abuse scenarios to prevent against
• Causes and effects of various gas generation mechanisms
• Voltage limitsPresenter

Determination of Battery Safety and Performance Parameters Using Adiabatic and Isothermal Calorimetry
FREE Webinar – Thermal Hazard Technology is a proud sponsor of this event.
This presentation describes two main types of calorimetry which can be used to carry out safety and performance testing on batteries. Isothermal calorimeters allow for direct heat measurement on cells during use, while adiabatic calorimeters can measure heat released from batteries during thermal runaway.
Calorimetry can serve as a quantitative scientific method for evaluation of battery safety but it requires appropriate instrumentation. The principles of operation of both types of calorimeters are described along with specific applications within the field of battery testing.
A combination of both technics allows for detailed thermal characterization of lithium-ion and other rechargeable cells, and differences due to chemistry, cell design, cell age, state of charge and cell size can be evaluated.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• The principles of adiabatic and isothermal calorimetry
• How calorimetry can be used in battery testing
• Parameters established by adiabatic safety testing
• Parameters established by isothermal performance testing
• Pressure measurement and gas collectionPresenter

Battery Selection Tutorial Course 1/3: Selecting your Cell and Cell Manufacturer(s)
After designing your product, you need to ensure the battery with which you are operating it will ensure the right performance and lifetime. When deciding this, narrowing down which chemistry (e.g. Li-ion, lithium primary, NiMH, etc.) best fits your product and which form factor are some of the first steps. Choosing a cell design (high-power vs. high-energy, for example) is another step and finally, finding the right cell manufacturer to fabricate your cells and packs. This webinar is the first in a three-part series on designing the right battery for your product. It will cover many of the key differences in chemistries, form factors, and cell designs and other best practices.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Choosing the right chemistry for your application
• Choosing the right form factor
• Choosing cell designs (e.g. high power vs. high-energy)Presenter

Update on Zinc Hybrid Cathode Battery Technology: Lessons Learned from Demo Projects with Major Utilities in US & Europe
With no economical means to store energy, the utility distribution network has typically been overbuilt and continually expanded to serve peak demand, though only a fraction of that infrastructure is used on an average day.
Working closely with utility partners like AEP and Con Edison, Eos Energy Storage has evaluated the economics of battery storage on the distribution system, with compelling results. Using first-hand knowledge of system costs and specifications, it was found that a utility-owned battery system can break even with a conventional T&D upgrade of ~$5M, or less when monetizing available market revenues.
In this webinar, Eos will share an update on commercialization of its zinc hybrid cathode battery technology and share lessons learned from deployments with major utilities in the US and Europe, from initial business case analysis to commissioning a turnkey product.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Discuss how energy storage can be leveraged as a utility distribution asset and market resource
• Share Eos’s experience in deploying energy storage systems at utility sites in the US and Europe
• Update on performance and path to commercialization for novel zinc hybrid cathode battery technologyPresenter
