In today's era of rapid development of science and technology, lithium batteries, as an efficient and environmentally friendly energy storage equipment, have been widely used in various fields, from our daily use of smart phones, laptops, to electric vehicles, energy storage power stations, lithium batteries are everywhere. Its emergence has not only changed our way of life, but also injected a strong impetus into the energy revolution and sustainable development, all of which cannot be separated from advanced lithium battery manufacturing technology. Lithium battery manufacturing is a complex and delicate process involving several key links. The first is the preparation of raw materials, mainly including lithium, cobalt, nickel and other metal materials, as well as electrolyte, diaphragm and other auxiliary materials. The quality and purity of these raw materials directly affect the performance and safety of lithium batteries. For example, the quality of lithium ore determines the energy density of the battery, and high-purity lithium materials can make the battery store more electricity, thereby improving the battery life of the device. Electrode manufacturing is one of the core links of lithium battery manufacturing. By mixing the active material, conductive agent and binder to make a slurry, and then coating on the metal foil, after drying, rolling and other processes to form a specific performance of the electrode. The choice of cathode material plays a key role in the energy density and charge and discharge performance of the battery, and the common lithium cobalt acid, lithium iron phosphate, ternary materials and so on. Different cathode materials have advantages and disadvantages in performance, such as lithium cobalt oxide has a high energy density, but the cost is high and the safety is relatively low; Lithium iron phosphate is safe and low cost, but the energy density is less. The next is the cell assembly, the positive plate, the diaphragm, the negative plate in accordance with a certain sequence of stacking or winding up, into the battery case, and then injected the electrolyte, after sealing, formation and other processes, and finally formed a complete cell. In this process, the process accuracy and environmental requirements are extremely high, and any small impurities or defects may lead to reduced battery performance and even cause safety problems. In addition to the above basic processes, lithium battery manufacturing also continues to emerge new technologies and new processes. For example, the research and development of solid-state battery technology is expected to solve the safety hazards and energy density bottlenecks of traditional liquid lithium batteries. Solid-state batteries use solid-state electrolytes instead of traditional liquid electrolytes, which can significantly improve the safety and energy density of batteries, and provide new possibilities for the long-term development of electric vehicles. In addition, the ...
