ALL-SOLID-STATE SECONDARY BATTERY AND METHOD OF PREPARING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18342893 titled 'ALL-SOLID-STATE SECONDARY BATTERY AND METHOD OF PREPARING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an all-solid-state battery that includes a cathode, an anode, and a solid electrolyte. The first anode active material layer is adjacent to the solid electrolyte and comprises M-MO, Li-M-MO, or a combination thereof. The second anode active material layer is arranged between the anode current collector and the first anode active material layer and includes a carbon-containing anode active material, or a carbon-containing anode active material and at least one metallic or metalloid anode active material.

  • The all-solid-state battery includes a cathode, an anode, and a solid electrolyte.
  • The first anode active material layer is adjacent to the solid electrolyte and comprises M-MO, Li-M-MO, or a combination thereof.
  • The second anode active material layer is arranged between the anode current collector and the first anode active material layer.
  • The second anode active material includes a carbon-containing anode active material, or a carbon-containing anode active material and at least one metallic or metalloid anode active material.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Electric vehicles: All-solid-state batteries can provide higher energy density and improved safety, making them suitable for electric vehicles.
  • Portable electronics: The compact size and improved performance of all-solid-state batteries make them ideal for use in smartphones, tablets, and other portable electronic devices.
  • Renewable energy storage: All-solid-state batteries can store excess energy generated from renewable sources like solar and wind, helping to stabilize the grid and promote clean energy usage.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Safety concerns: All-solid-state batteries eliminate the risk of electrolyte leakage and thermal runaway, addressing safety issues associated with traditional liquid electrolyte batteries.
  • Energy density: The use of solid electrolytes and advanced active materials allows for higher energy density, increasing the capacity and range of batteries.
  • Cycle life: All-solid-state batteries have the potential for longer cycle life compared to traditional batteries, reducing the need for frequent replacements.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved safety: The absence of flammable liquid electrolytes reduces the risk of fire and explosion, enhancing the safety of battery-powered devices.
  • Higher energy density: All-solid-state batteries offer higher energy density, enabling longer-lasting and more powerful battery performance.
  • Longer cycle life: The use of stable solid electrolytes and advanced active materials can result in batteries with longer cycle life, reducing the need for frequent replacements and improving overall battery lifespan.
