VAA Excellence Award awarded to Dr. Stefan Oswald

The German association of professionals and executives in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry (VAA) has awarded this year’s Excellence Award to Dr. Stefan Oswald. At the annual meeting of the VAA in Düsseldorf, Dr. Oswald received this distinction for his doctoral work with Prof. Hubert Gasteiger at the Chair of Technical Electrochemistry on “Elucidating the…

Recent publication from the Chair of Numerical Mechanics: Electro-chemo-mechanic insights into delamination in solid-state batteries

An Electro-Chemo-Mechanic Model Resolving Delamination between Components in Complex Microstructures of Solid-State Batteries / Schmidt, C. P.; Sinzig, S.; Wall, W. A. / J. Electrochem. Soc. 2024, 171, 100502 – DOI

New study from the Chair of Technical Electrochemistry: Impact of washing parameters on proton content in nickel-rich cathode active materials for lithium-ion batteries

In this latest publication from the Chair of Technical Electrochemistry, researchers developed five analytical techniques to study lithium/proton (Li+/H+) exchange in nickel-rich cathode active materials (CAMs) for lithium-ion batteries, revealing the effects of washing parameters on proton content and providing insights essential for improving sustainable CAM…

Recent publication from the Chair of Automotive Technology: Transfer of differential voltage and incremental capacity analysis from cell to vehicle level for electric vehicle battery health estimation

In the latest publication from the Chair of Automotive Technology, researchers investigated the transfer of Differential Voltage Analysis (DVA) and Incremental Capacity Analysis (ICA) from the cell level to the vehicle level. The goal is to estimate the State of Health (SOH) of the traction battery in electric vehicles. For this purpose, data from a VW ID.3 and a…

New Publication by the Chair of Electrical Energy Storage Technology: Impact of Mechanical Pressure on Performance and Expansion of Silicon Anodes in Multilayer Pouch Cells

The latest work from the Chair of Electrical Energy Storage Technology, titled "Effect of the Mechanical Pressure on Rate Capability, and Expansion in Multilayer Pouch Cells with Silicon-Dominant Anodes" has been published in the ECS - The Electrochemical Society! The full article is available as open access:…

Recent Publication from the Chair of Automotive Technology: Unlocking the Full Potential of Electric Vehicle Fast-Charging Over Lifetime Through Model-Based Aging Adaptation

In this publication, an aging dataset is used to update an electrochemical battery model for fast-charging applications over the battery's lifetime by incorporating degradation modes (loss of active material, loss of lithium inventory). This approach significantly reduces model error and highlights the potential underestimation of fast-charging capability over the…
