Flat-laminated lithium-ion batteries are the design of choice for future hybrid and electric vehicle applications because they are faster and more efficient to produce than standard prismatic, pouch or wound cells. They offer improved safety, reduced weight, increased thermal control and extended cycle life.
Symmetrix™ microporous PVDF separators are directly laminatable onto electrodes without expensive and performance-robbing pretreatments. Symmetrix separators maintain maximum porosity and low resistance even after laminating — opening up a wealth of innovative design possibilities for energy storage cell manufacturers.
