Defined Coating Defined Drying

Understanding of drying mechanismse.g. Kryo-REM: Cross sections of wet LIB anodes

High capacity electrodes (thicker coatings, high capacity additives,...)

Multilayer coatings:

simultaneous vs

in between drying step

Variation of:

additive content

pore size (active material size)...

Mixing Coating & Drying Calendering Cell stacking

Simplified Process Chain of Lithium Ion Battery Production
