Abstract:
A joint team of scientists from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and Argonne National Laboratory was recognized by FMC Corporation for the FMC Scientific Achievement Award. The team has performed fundamental research on the lithium metal technology and helped to identify application methodologies of the lithium metal product into high-energy lithium-ion battery for transportation applications. This work is part of the Integrated Laboratories and Industry Research Program, supported by the Battery for Advanced Transportation Technologies Program of Vehicle Technologies Office of U.S. Department of Energy. FMC Corporation is a global company, and a world leader in the manufacture of lithium products.
This success illustrates Berkeley Lab's commitment to the growth and development of relationships and collaborations with Industry.
Berkeley Lab awardees are Principal Investigators Gao Liu, Vincent Battaglia and Andrew M. Minor, as well as Postdocs: Zhihui Wang, Bin Xiang, Sang-Jae Park, and Lei Wang.
Gao Liu's research topics in Lithium-ion rechargeable batteries include advanced electrode design and formulation, silicon based anode materials, electrode binder design and synthesis, electrolyte and additives.
Vince Battaglia works on electrode design and preparation process optimization, cell components integration and battery testing, as well as failure analysis.
Andrew Minor's research group uses advanced electron microscopy-based materials characterization to investigate both organic and inorganic materials on topics such as nanomechanical size effects, lightweight alloy metallurgy, characterization of soft materials, and novel in-situ TEM methods for materials science research.
