Introduction
The emerging field of battery leak detection and safety is rapidly expanding, addressing critical challenges in battery management. TOFWERK, a Swiss manufacturer of advanced mass spectrometers, leverages cutting-edge technology based on chemical ionization (CI) and time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry to enhance battery safety and longevity.
Our instruments are specifically designed to localize and quantify battery leaks by detecting trace amounts of electrolyte solution seeping from microscopic holes within the cells. This technology not only enhances battery safety through high-throughput classification of individual cells and modules but also optimizes production processes, ensuring a more reliable and efficient battery manufacturing landscape.
The webinar presentation was originally presented at the “BATTERY TUESDAYS” event organized by the iBAT Association .
Webinar Highlights
During this on-demand webinar, we will explore:
CI-TOF mass spectrometry for battery leak detection
Introduction of the technology of chemical ionization (CI) in combination with time-of-flight (TOF) mass spectrometry used to measure the battery leakage and corresponding safety.
Industrial application for battery leak testing
Various industrial applications for lithium-ion batteries are presented, ranging from characterization and classification of coin cells to pouch cells.
International standard for battery leakage and safety
Efforts to introduce an international standard for single cell emissions will also be discussed.
