Lithium-ion batteries: basics and applications Springer-verlag berlin and heidelberg gmbh & co. kg (Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG)

The handbook focuses on a complete outline of Lithium-ion batteries. Just before starting with an exposition of the fundamentals of this system, the book gives a short explanation of the newest cell generation. The most important elements are described as negative / positive electrode materials, electrolytes, seals and separators. The batterie-disconnect-unit and the batterie-management-system are important parts of modern Lithium-ion Batteries.§An economical, faultless and efficient batterie production is a must today and is represented with one chapter in the handbook. Cross-cutting issues like electrical, chemical, functional safety are further topics. Last but not least standards and transportation themes are the final chapters of the handbook.§The different topics of the handbook provide a good knowledge base not only for those working daily on electrochemical energy storage, but also to scientists, engineers and students concerned in modern batterie-systems.
