For any new electrode material to be successful for battery application, its crystal structure and structural stability with charge-discharge cycling are of critical importance. Malvern Panalytical X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) solutions are specially customized for battery research, offering both powder materials characterization for structural integrity and in-operando characterization to investigate their electro-stability during charge-discharge cycling.

In operando XRD can help you track the changes in the crystal phases that might be harmful for the battery performance. Such changes, if not understood and mitigated, may lead to irreversible battery degradation with cycling.

New in operando XRD functionalities

A battery may work perfectly at 25oC, but actual operating conditions may cause unexpected performance degradation and safety risks. To investigate battery stability under non-ambient conditions, we are introducing 2 new battery stages with heating and cooling feature between -10oC and 70oC on our Empyrean XRD platform.

VTEC : an electrochemical cell with Be window for reflection studies

VTEC-trans : a pouch cell stage for transmission studies
