3. 2. Sodium trapping in aluminium current collectors

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Strukturkemi

   Author : Ville Nyström; [2019]
   Keywords : Na; sodium; trapping; current collector; Al; aluminium; glyme; diglyme;

   Abstract : The aim of this master thesis was to establish if sodium is trapped in aluminium current collectors, which in turn could affect the capacity fade in sodium-ion battery systems. In the case of lithium-ion batteries, previous studies have shown that a trapping mechanism, where lithium diffuses through the active material and current collectors, can explain the capacity fade observed for several systems.
