A look at Old and New Battery Packaging

Discover familiar battery formats, some of which going back to the late 1800s. Early batteries of the 1700s and 1800s developed in Europe were mostly encased in glass jars. As batteries grew in size, jars shifted to sealed wooden containers and composite materials. In the 1890s, battery manufacturing spread from Europe to the United States […]

What Is The High Energy Density Battery?

The energy density of batteries can be displayed in two different ways: gravimetric energy density and volumetric energy density. The gravimetric energy density is the measure of how much energy a battery contains in proportion to its weight. This measurement is typically presented in Watt-hours per kilogram (W-hr / kg). The volumetric energy density, on the other hand, is […]

What Is High Voltage Battery?

LiHV电池的电压 An L-i-H-V battery is a type of Lithium battery that allows for a higher than normal voltage. The “HV” stands for “high voltage” and it has a higher energy density than standard LiPo batteries. Ordinary LiPo batteries have a nominal voltage of 3.7V and a fully charged voltage of 4.2V. LiFePO4 batteries have a nominal voltage of 3.2V […]

What Is The SEI, And What Effect Does It Have On The Battery?

The SEI (solid electrolyte interphase) is formed on the surface of the anode from the electrochemical reduction of the electrolyte and plays a crucial role in the long-term cyclability of a lithium-based battery. Introduction of SEI During the first charge and discharge of a lithium-ion battery, the electrode material reacts with the electrolyte at the solid-liquid […]
