Tesla Patents and The Battery Day

Описание: Recently we learned of several of Tesla's battery patents, which are more important, especially ahead of Tesla's Battery Day and how important new battery technologies are for the success of electric cars, their range and battery cycle.

The Driven reports.

As the world waits for electric car pioneer Tesla to reveal the secrets of longer-lasting, more efficient batteries at its upcoming Battery Day, it’s worth brushing up on why several of Tesla’s patents have caught a great deal of attention.

Tesla’s tabless battery patent, a “lithium doping” patent and a single crystal cathode patent are three patents that will potentially play key roles in more efficient and longer-lasting batteries.

In a paper that reviewed electrolyte design published in Cell by Jeff Dahn and research associate ER Logan in April, he notes that, “recent work has identified new Li salts and other additives that form favorable SEI layers for fast charging, such as difluorobis(oxalato) phosphate.”

Why the single crystal cathode patent, titled “Method for synthesizing nickel-cobalt-aluminium electrode“, is so significant is explained in greater detail by Youtuber The Limiting Factor.

The main points are:

A battery with a single crystal cathode will suffer less degradation
With the right electrolyte solution and additives, such a battery could cycle 4,000 times
The patent’s processes are not limited to the use of nickel-cobalt-aluminum chemistry

“I expect Tesla has filed a patent for this and they’ll be making this in-house as well,” says The Limiting Factor.
