Why solid state battery?

?
Advantages No flammable liquid electrolyte  Ultimate safety  No thermal runaway High energy density No safety devices required Excellent cycling stability Excellent shelf life
3

Disadvantages Slower kinetics due to • Low ionic conductivity • High interfacial resistance • Poor interfacial contact

General Solid State Battery Construction
Two electrodes are separated by solid state electrolyte layer – Electrolyte has high ionic conductivity and is electronically insulating Composite electrodes – Incorporate solid electrolyte into composite for fast ion transport – Incorporate conductive additive into composite for fast electron transport

Solid Electrolyte Lithium Metal Anode Cathode Li anode SSE Cathode Conductive Additive Active Material

History
1839 (Michael Faraday) The first solid state electrolyte, PbF2 at high temperature

1884 (Warburg) Demonstrated Na+ conduction in glass 1888 (Warburg & Tegetmeier) The first measurement of transference number ~ 1900 (Walther Nernst) Discovery of “ Nernst glower” – a ceramic rod was heated to incandescence → SOFC (solid oxide fuel cell), oxygen gas sensor

    How does a voltaic pile make electricity? The key to electricity is the movement of electrons. In a voltaic pile, electrons move from one metal to the other through the saltwater solution. The saltwater solution is called an electrolyte, and it contains ions in solution from the dissolved salts. An ion is a group of atoms that carries a positive or negative electric charge. The ions react with the metals, causing an electrochemical reaction, a special kind of chemical reaction that makes electrons.…

    The first battery or voltaic cell (later named a galvanic cell) was made by Alessandro Volta, his discoveries led to the first working batteries. Over time the chemistry and construction of a battery has been refined, and society has become more reliant on these efficient portable sources of electrical energy. With the positive benefits of batteries come many environmental problems. The role of chemists play an important role in not only refining the chemistry of current…

    b. Aqueous NaCl—Sodium Chloride contains both sodium and chloride ions, but in the solid state they are locked in place and therefore unavailable to conduct electricity. But, when NaCl is dissolved in water, the ions are free to move and conduct electricity, making NaCl a strong electrolyte. Chemical reaction of the disassociation of Sodium Chloride: NaCl(aq)Na+ (aq)+ Cl-(aq)…

    Electrostatic Series and Charging by Friction Review The electrostatic series is used to determine the charge on objects charged by friction. Objects at the top of the electrostatic series have a weak hold on electrons and are electron givers. These objects lose electrons and become positively charged. Objects at the bottom of the electrostatic series have a strong hold on electrons and are electron takers. Objects at the bottom of the series gain electrons and become negatively charged. The object higher on the list always loses electrons to the objects lower on the list.

    There are lots of important parts for regular batteries. They are the positive terminal and electrode, the negative terminal and electrode, and the electrolyte which is located between the two electrodes. The positive electrode is made out of a carbon rod. Powdered carbon and manganese oxide prevents hydrogen from forming on the carbon rod, which would stop the cell from working normally. For the negative electrode, Zinc is used, which serves, as a case for the cell. Electrons flow from the negative terminal through a wire in the device the battery is powering into the positive terminal (learning center).…

    We produced conductivity tests in water and other various solutions with a computer faced Conductivity Probe using the unit of microsiemens per centimeter (uS/cm) to find out which solutions had a high conductivity and which solutions had a low conductivity. Many different solutions vary in conductivity due to the ratio of ions. Different levels of ions have an impact on conductivity because of the different charges and different types of bonds. Conductivity is related to concentrations of ions and the speed with which ions diffuse through a solution. Faster-moving ions create higher conductivities and vise versa. If a solution is diluted the concentration of ions goes down, and the ability to pass a current…

    In 1953 the Chevy Corvette were the first generation was first introduced in the late 1953 and ended in 1962 which may people called it “solid axle”. Also in that same year the radio transistor was made and it was made into a pocket size radio which made listing to music easier. Later on in 1953 the “Black Box” which was a flight recorder which was used to record the conversation of the pilot to investigate what caused the plane to crash or if the plane caught on fire. In 1954 the Solar Battery was made by three scientists where there will put a battery outside with silicon where it get free electrons and make it into electricity. Then the Polypropylene was made which is a thermal plastic found on ropes and packaging. Then later on that same year the solar cell was made which converted solar energy into electrical energy. In 1955 optic fiber was made proving that light can be bent which we now we find this “Optic…
