Abstract
Research in energy storage is focusing on the expansion of electric vehicle (EV) batteries to reduce the use of fossil energy, which contributes to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions. Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are being improved for such use due to their high energy per unit mass output. Manufacturing of LIBs should emphasize optimizing the performance of the battery. The processes in battery manufacturing are (1) electrode preparation, (2) battery assembly, and (3) cell formation. This chapter highlights electrode manufacturing preparation since it makes up 55% of the battery weight. This implies that if electrode manufacturing costs can be reduced, the total cost of battery manufacturing can then be lowered. The important processes in electrode manufacturing are materials mixing, drying, and calendering routes. Any process modification during electrode manufacturing must consider its impact on LIBs performance.
