This event covered two major themes in the battery industry

This event covered two major themes in the battery industry: (1) solid state batteries and (2) frontier materials beyond standard Li-ion chemistry including novel anodes, cathodes, and electrolytes. In doing so, TechBlick brought together a handpicked world-class agenda consisting of end users, manufacturers, promising start-ups, as well as renowned research centers and market analyst groups.

Solid Energies presented about Si anodes and Polymer Solid Electrolytes. Our talk was titled Solid As-Assembled Electrolytes (SAE) for SSB's with Si anodes. In this talk we discussed the innovations needed at the anode and the electrolyte. One of the main challenges with long-term cycling performance of next generation battery system is the interfacial behavior of the anode and the SAE. These challenges arise from either chemical instability between the anode and the SAE or mechanical stress between the anode and the SAE.

These two challenges are accentuated

Hese two challenges are accentuated at the anode due to the anode’s low standard electrode potential and because of the large volumetric expansion next generation anodes (like silicon) experience. If the electrolyte is reactive, inflexible, and penetrable, even the best active anode materials will be worthless.  To address these issues, we have developed a novel class of electrolytes that improve operational temperature range, require no stack pressure and can work with next generation Si anodes.
