Oral Presentations
Evaluation of Matching Ratio Impact on Reduced Charging Time
2020 Electrochemical Society Meeting
Montreal, Canada
Determine the effect of matching ratio (cell design) on fast charge capability. When using the correct matching ratio and charge procedure, cells with an increased N:P ratio can be charged to higher capacity, quicker, despite a reduced energy density.
