To optimize the chemical composition of the final cathode materials, it is first essential to control the chemical composition of the precursor and raw materials. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis, which can characterize chemical composition and impurities from just a few ppm all the way up to 100%, is the best technique for controlling this parameter.
Specifically, XRF provides a simpler and more accurate way of measuring elemental composition than inductively coupled plasma (ICP) mass spectrometry, as it does not require any sample dilution or acid digestion.
Malvern Panalytical specialists have developed a turn-key solution, including certified reference materials (CRMs) and calibration templates, for the analysis of both precursor and cathode material composition with the benchtop Epsilon 4 EDXRF or floor-standing Zetium WDXRF spectrometers.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• On-line and at-line XRF analysis of solutions containing Ni, Co and Mn
• NCM-certified reference materials for XRF calibration purposes
• Turn-key solution for the XRF analysis of NCM precursors and cathodes

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 practicesPresenter

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 cellsPresenters

Simulation Of Battery Crash – Where Do We Stand?
FREE Webinar – PlugVolt is a proud sponsor of this event.
Safety is an important functional requirement in the development of large-format, energy-dense, lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries used in electrified vehicles. Computer aided engineering (CAE) tools that predict the response of a Li-ion battery pack to various abusive conditions can provide valuable insight during the design phase and reduce the need for physical testing.
However, the physics under such simulations is quite complex, and involves structural, thermal, electrical and electrochemical behaviors all coupled together and spanning length and time scales of different orders of magnitude.
In this talk, ANSYS LS-DYNA’s capabilities in the area of battery simulation will be introduced, current numerical challenges discussed, as well as a potential way forward towards including battery models in full car crash simulations.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• The state of battery crash simulations
• Numerical challenges
• Capabilities of the commercial finite element code in ANSYS LS-DYNA
• A path towards capturing the thermal/mechanical/electromagnetic behavior of batteries during a full vehicle crashPresenter
Inaki Caldichoury – Software Developer at ANSYSInaki has been with ANSYS as a Software Developer since 2011, with a special focus on LS-DYNA and the electromagnetic and CFD solvers.
