NanoBat publication: High-Potential Test for Quality Control of Separator Defects in Battery Cell Production

This publication shows how high-potential testing is used to analyze the insulation performance of the electrically insulating separator layer in a pouch cell.

NanoBat consortium meeting in Turin

On November 16-17, 2021, we were happy to meet in person for the first time in 20 months. What an exciting meeting where we also set the stage for the second half of the project.

Optimised Battery Production through Nanotechnology

Instrumentation & Technologies

Microscopy & Imaging

Modelling & Simulation

NanoBat aims to develop a novel nanotechnology toolbox for quality testing of Li-ion and beyond Lithium batteries.

Sustainable electricity storage is among this century’s main challenges. Being faster and more accurate than existing methods, the radio frequency (RF)-nanoscale techniques to be developed in NanoBat have the potential to redefine battery production in Europe and worldwide and greatly benefit the clean energy and e-mobility transition in Europe.

“Covering the EU demand alone requires at least 20 large-scale battery production facilities. We are confident that the NanoBat technologies could effectively support European manufacturers and SMEs to exploit this enormous market potential and keep up with global competition. ”
