Measurement of Electrolyte Solutions for Lithium-Ion Secondary Batteries with IRSpirit Glove Box System

User Benefits

-� IRSpirit can be controlled via wireless communication. �- Installing the IRSpirit in a glove box enables sample measurements in an environment purged with inert gas. � - Anaerobic samples such as cell components of lithium-ion secondary batteries can be analyzed with FTIR.

Introduction

When cell components of lithium-ion secondary batteries are affected by water vapor and oxygen in the atmosphere, the battery characteristics are significantly affected. It is therefore desirable to handle and characterize the cell components under an atmosphere not affected by water vapor or oxygen. The IRSpirit, a compact FTIR, can be installed in a glove box, thus enabling the evaluation of cell components in a high purity argon atmosphere with low dew point and low oxygen concentration. This article introduces an example of the measurement of organic electrolyte solutions, commonly used in lithium-ion secondary batteries.
