Power Battery vs. Energy Storage Battery Testing: A Comprehensive Comparison of Standards, Materials, and Methods

Battery application scenarios by IEST Instrument illustrating Electric Vehicles (EV) and Energy Storage Systems (ESS) where advanced multi-level battery characterization and testing solutions are implemented.

Abstract Power battery vs. energy storage battery testing differs fundamentally in test objectives, charge/discharge protocols, temperature profiles, and cycle life requirements. Power batteries (EVs) are tested primarily for rate capability, fast-charge performance, and low-temperature discharge under constant current conditions per…

Lithium Battery Failure Analysis: A 7-Dimensional Characterization Guide for Root Cause Identification

Lithium-ion battery degradation mechanisms — capacity loss, internal resistance growth, and lithium inventory depletion — categorized for failure analysis of NCM/Si pouch cells.

Abstract Lithium battery failure analysis is a systematic, multi-scale diagnostic process that identifies the root causes of performance degradation — including capacity fade, impedance rise, and safety events — by decomposing cell behavior into distinct mechanical, electrochemical, and structural failure…

Advanced Powder Materials: IEST SPFT Enable B/Zr Co‑Doping for Lattice Regulation and Internal Stress Relief in Ultra‑High‑Nickel Single‑Crystal Cathodes

Nickel-rich layered cathode research published in Advanced Powder Materials: IEST SPFT2000 Single Particle Force Tester by IEST Instrument measuring single-particle compressive strength (Force-Displacement curves) and micro-cracking behavior for SCNCM and Zr/B modified cathodes across 500 and 1000 cycles, citing IEST Instrument technical support.

Abstract B/Zr co-doping is a lattice-bulk regulation strategy for stabilizing ultra-high-nickel single-crystal cathodes by coordinating bulk lattice reinforcement with surface structural protection. Reported by Wei Shu, Zhou-Shuang Fan, An-Qiang Pan, Yun Liu, Wen-Xing Zhang and co-authors in Advanced Powder Materials…

Nature Energy: Xueliang Sun’s Team Reveals Solid Electrolyte Electronic Conductivity as the Root Cause of Self-Discharge in ASSBs

Nature Energy paper on electronic conductivity of solid electrolytes causing physical self-discharge in all-solid-state batteries.

Abstract Solid electrolyte electronic conductivity — long assumed negligible in all-solid-state battery (ASSB) design — is now revealed as a hidden driver of physical self-discharge. A team led by Academician Sun Xueliang and Professor Wang Changhong at Ningbo Eastern University…

Advanced Materials: IEST SPFT2000 Quantitatively Stress-Chemical Coupling Drives Multi-Step Phase Transition Degradation in Single-Crystal Ultra-High-Nickel Cathodes

Advanced Materials article header on single-crystal Ni-rich cathodes alongside IEST SPFT2000 single particle tester, paper Acknowledgements citing IEST support, and single particle force-displacement curves.

Abstract A research team from Central South University (Prof. Fan Xinming) and Xiamen University (Prof. Yang Yong) has published a landmark study in Advanced Materials (DOI: 10.1002) that fundamentally redefines the high-voltage cycling failure mechanism of single-crystal Ni-rich cathodes. Using…

Advanced Materials: Electrochemical Sintering Enables Stress-Lensed Silicon Anodes for Long-Life All-Solid-State Batteries Validated by IEST SPFT2000

Advanced Materials Electrochemical Sintering Enables Stress-Lensed Silicon Anodes for Long-Life All-Solid-State Batteries Validated by IEST SPFT2000

Abstract B/Zr co-doping is a lattice-bulk regulation strategy for stabilizing ultra-high-nickel single-crystal cathodes by coordinating bulk lattice reinforcement with surface structural protection. The Advanced Powder Materials study investigates single-crystalline $LiNi_{0.92}Co_{0.04}Mn_{0.04}O_2$ (SNCM) and develops SCNCM@0.5%Zr/B to address the coupled problems of Ni-rich cathode internal…

IEST SPFT2000 Enables Nature Nanotechnology Breakthrough: Coherent Twin Boundaries Unlock Ultra‑High Loading Thick Li‑Rich Cathodes

Nature Nanotechnology article "Coherent twins for manufacturing thick lithium-rich battery positive electrodes" showing the IEST SPFT2000 single-particle force properties tester used to measure compressive mechanical strength of CTLRO and PLRO cathode particles

Abstract Coherent twin boundaries (CTBs) are periodic crystallographic interfaces introduced into a Li-rich cathode — specifically a Li-rich layered oxide (LRO) — through staged-temperature calcination, and they address the three limiting factors of a thick electrode design: restricted two-dimensional lithium-ion…
