Gen. 4b Solid State Li-ion battery by additive manufacturing - AM4BAT

AM4BAT将开发创新的组件材料，并组装由具有成本竞争力和可持续的还原光聚3D打印制造的无阳极全固态电池(ASSB)。目标是为电动汽车应用提供能量密度为400Wh/kg和1000Wh/L的高性能电池。这将通过开发材料来实现，包括i)具有优越能量的单晶NMC811，ii)无钴LNMO和更高电压的功率AM4BAT变体，iii)在HSE中掺杂不同尺寸的LLZO，从0.5到5微米和50到100 nm，以及iv)新型丙烯酸，纳米纤维素，可持续的光固化聚合物。这些材料将通过添加制造进行优化以进行加工。然后，AM4BAT将通过达到TRL5的3-Ah袋电池来验证该技术，并将进行可制造性评估、全面可持续性评估和回收研究，以支持客户的接受。已确定的利益攸关方团体以及其他研究倡议将积极参与，以确保AM4BAT结果的传播和更广泛的用户接受。AM4BAT基于尖端3D打印ASSB的雄心勃勃的概念，以及一个涉及从材料供应商到OEM的整个价值链的强大联盟，旨在克服工作计划中规定的4b代技术的剩余技术障碍，并完成电池行业的紧迫短期需求：使4b代电池在2025年之后成为一项可行的技术。从长远来看，AM4BAT的成果将有助于创建一个可持续的欧洲电池制造价值链，帮助欧盟成功推出电动汽车并加快能源转型

AM4BAT will develop innovative component materials and assemble an anode-free all-solid-state battery (ASSB) manufactured by a cost-competitive and sustainable vat photopolymerization 3D printing. The objective is to reach a high-performance battery the energy density of 400 Wh/kg and 1000 Wh/L for electric vehicles applications. This will be achieved by developing materials including i) single crystal NMC811 with superior energy, ii) LNMO Co-free and higher voltage for power AM4BAT variant, iii) dopped LLZO with differentsize from 0.5 to 5µm and 50-100 nm for higher loading in the HSE, and iv) novel acrylic, nanocellulose,sustainable photocurable polymer. The materials will be optimized for their processing by additive manufacturing. AM4BAT will then validate the technology via 3-Ah pouch cells reaching TRL5, and will carry out an evaluation of manufacturability, a full sustainability assessment and a recycling study to support customers’ uptake. Identified stakeholder groups as well as other research initiatives will be actively involved to ensure dissemination of AM4BAT results and broader users’ acceptance. With its ambitious concept based on cutting-edge 3D printed ASSB and a strong consortium involving the whole value chain from material providers to an OEM, AM4BAT aims to overcome the remaining technological obstacles of the Gen 4b technology as specified in the work programme and accomplish the urgent shorter-term needs of the battery industry: to make Gen 4b batteries a viable technology beyond 2025. On longer term, the AM4BAT outcomes will contribute to the creation of a sustainable European battery manufacturing value chain helping the EU to succeed in the electric mobility roll-out and accelerate the energy transition
