Research question
How can electrolyte formulations be tested in reproducible coin cells with less manual assembly and measurement work?
Key result
ALBATROSS integrated electrolyte preparation, coin-cell assembly and electrochemical testing for up to 48 cells without manual intervention. Li∥NCM811 tests showed a discharge-capacity relative standard deviation of 1.3%.
Research contribution
The KAIST team developed and validated the hardware, software and data workflow. Dong-Hwa Seo contributed the concept, methodology and supervision, with LG Energy Solution collaborators contributing resources and methodology.
