Descripción del proyecto
Imprimir baterías de litio más seguras y baratas
En comparación con otras tecnologías, las baterías de iones de litio son una tecnología de almacenamiento de energía relativamente nueva. Ampliamente utilizadas en electrónica, pueden recargarse y poseen una alta densidad energética. La demanda de unas baterías de iones de litio más seguras, fiables y asequibles va en aumento. Para satisfacer esta necesidad creciente, la tecnología de impresión 3D se erige como la solución más viable. El proyecto 3D-PReSS financiado con fondos europeos desarrollará y propiciará la tecnología de impresión 3D en la producción de baterías de iones de litio de estado sólido. El proyecto ofrecerá nuevos materiales imprimibles que facilitarán el crecimiento de la producción de baterías de iones de litio de estado sólido totalmente imprimibles.
Objetivo
The main goal of the 3D-PRESS project is to advance in the 3D printing concepts for safer, cheaper and customizable all-solid state Li-ion batteries (LIB). More specifically, the project is focused on the design, production, characterization and testing of 3D printed NASICON-type glass-based electrolytes for 3D printed batteries.
In 3D-PRESS, glass-based compositions will be designed and synthesized in order to obtain printable glass-based electrolytes with superior conductivity and functional properties. The produced glasses will be thermally and electrochemically characterized in order to investigate their sinter-crystallization behaviour (tailoring suitable sintering treatments) and electrochemical performances. The most promising electrolyte compositions will be selected to be printed in free-form robust self-standing structures in order to obtain 3D batteries with high active area (allowing high specific energy and power per unit volume).
3D-PRESS represents a cutting edge multidisciplinary approach for the development of reliable and customizable all-solid state 3D LIBs, especially interesting for micro-power applications such as the ones for Internet of Things (IoT). The project will provide a new family of printable materials increasing the short list of available compositions, especially solid electrolytes, opening the door to the development of a new generation of fully printable all-solid state 3D LIBs.
A high impact on the future career of the candidate is expected by complementing his current background with new skills in one of the more relevant Key Enabling Technologies (KETs), 3D-printing, applied to the crucial field of the Energy Storage. Moreover, the host institute will offer unique opportunities to re-enforce the technology transfer competences of the candidate by carrying out an industrial secondment and by the involvement in the KIC Innoenergy community.
