Tackling Sample Preparation for Elemental Analysis in the Lithium-Ion Battery Industry

Batteries are evolving and Li-ion battery is the chosen technology so far. Consequently, we must understand how to improve batteries performance, and the chemical analysis of their components is a necessary step.

Materials for anodes, cathodes and electrolytes should be fully characterized. In this eBook, we explain how microwave-assisted digestion has become an essential ally for sample preparation of battery materials before measurements by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry.

After a brief introduction to fundamentals, several procedures are presented for analysis of anode, cathode, and electrolyte materials. We are going to demonstrate how the use of microwave-assisted closed vessel digestions makes feasible the metal analysis of several components used in the Li-ion battery industry. Moreover, this approach led to shorter digestion cycles, using lower volumes of reagents and higher temperatures without compromising safety aspects.

Topic world Digestion

Sample digestion is a critical step in chemical analysis that often determines the success or failure of an investigation. It involves the targeted transformation and preparation of a sample to make the components of interest accessible for analysis. Various methods such as thermal, chemical or enzymatic digestion are used to dissolve matrix components, remove unwanted components and release target substances.
