Coperion has introduced a collaboration with Excessive Efficiency Battery (HPB) geared toward enabling industrial-scale manufacturing of solid-state batteries. This initiative combines Coperion’s steady extrusion processing experience with HPB’s solid-state battery know-how. In accordance with HPB, its batteries show notable enhancements over standard lithium-ion know-how in security, lifespan, and environmental efficiency, with mental property protected in 96 nations and a claimed 50 p.c higher environmental steadiness in comparison with conventional lithium-ion cells.
Earlier in 2024, Coperion and HPB carried out joint trials at Coperion’s take a look at facility in Stuttgart, Germany. The main focus was on figuring out whether or not HPB’s proprietary battery slurry might be processed to focus on viscosity ranges utilizing Coperion’s steady extrusion methods. The preliminary part of testing was profitable, with each firms reporting that the method achieved the required viscosity parameters for the battery slurry.
“Our major aim was to validate that our proprietary slurry could be produced reliably and persistently at industrial scale,” mentioned Markus Stichnote, Head of Improvement at HPB. “The profitable trials utilizing Coperion’s state-of-the-art gear have confirmed that scaling up our know-how is each possible and environment friendly.”
The businesses word that with preliminary viscosity targets met, plans are underway for extra scale-up trials, with the aim of advancing towards full industrial-scale solid-state battery manufacturing.
