4. Conclusions The electrolyte filling, as a bottleneck within the process chain of battery production, is characterized by long throughput times and a high cost of experimental studies required to ramp up stable and optimized processes.
Therefore, a trend to increase the overall size of the individual cell and to decrease the share of inactive materials is needed. The process of electrolyte filling involves the injection of electrolyte liquid into the cell, as well as the absorption of the electrolyte into the pores of the electrodes and the separator, which is known as wetting.
The conducting route between the electrodes as well as the battery’s external electronics is provided by the current collector, which is a thin sheet of metal , whereas the main layers in the creation of thin-film batteries are the current collector layer, anode layer, electrolyte layer, cathode layer, and another collector layer.
The filling process, as detailed in the introduction, is split into the dosing and the wetting processes. Within the scope of this work, the designation of macro refers to the process of dosing the electrolyte liquid into the cell housing, and the designation of micro refers to the wetting of pore structures with the electrolyte.
During the first part of the filling process, the electrolyte is dosed into the void volume of the cell and surrounds the cell stack. Previous studies focused almost exclusively on wetting, though the dosing is a crucial part of the filling process.
After dosing the liquid into the void volume of the cell, the wetting begins immediately. This is the most time-consuming part of the electrolyte filling process and it takes up to multiple hours based on factors such as cell geometry and process parameters .
