Battery

Batteries market is dramatically growing since their first commercial introduction in the early 90’s based on demands for electronic devices and automotive. To face large issues such as increase of capacity, safety, life and running time as well as decrease of weight, volume and charge time, all stages have to be understood and controlled to maintain competitiveness and profitability. From any single component (cathode, anode, separator and electrolyte) to full pack, scientific fields and technologies involved require fast and innovative characterization tools.

Advanced materials research considers study of new material as well as their exploration at material level. Applied research will conciliate needs of industrialization through optimization of cell chemistry, establishment of advanced processing technologies and life time improvement. Advanced batteries development finalizes the performance optimization and cost reduction. Batteries production requires fast, easy and accurate QC monitoring, which provides fast detection of defaults in safety and performances issues, along with fast decision making when default is suspected. This will save time and money, while providing perfect traceability.
