--- _id: '8361' abstract: - lang: eng text: With the lithium-ion technology approaching its intrinsic limit with graphite-based anodes, Li metal is recently receiving renewed interest from the battery community as potential high capacity anode for next-generation rechargeable batteries. In this focus paper, we review the main advances in this field since the first attempts in the mid-1970s. Strategies for enabling reversible cycling and avoiding dendrite growth are thoroughly discussed, including specific applications in all-solid-state (inorganic and polymeric), Lithium–Sulfur (Li–S) and Lithium-O2 (air) batteries. A particular attention is paid to recent developments of these battery technologies and their current state with respect to the 2030 targets of the EU Integrated Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET-Plan) Action 7. acknowledgement: A.V. and K.T. acknowledge, respectively, the financial support of the Helmholtz Association and BMW AG.

Besides features like energy density, cost, lifetime, and recyclability the safety of a battery system is of prime importance. The separator material impacts all these properties and requires therefore an informed selection. The interplay between the mechanical and electrochemical properties as key selection criteria is investigated. Mechanical properties were investigated using tensile and puncture penetration tests at abuse relevant conditions. To investigate the electrochemical performance in terms of effective conductivity a method based on impedance spectroscopy was introduced. This methodology is applied to evaluate ten commercial separators which allows for a trade-off analysis of mechanical versus electrochemical performance. Based on the results, and in combination with other factors, this offers an effective approach to select suitable separators for automotive applications. article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Martin full_name: Plaimer, Martin last_name: Plaimer - first_name: Christoph full_name: Breitfuß, Christoph last_name: Breitfuß - first_name: Wolfgang full_name: Sinz, Wolfgang last_name: Sinz - first_name: Simon F. full_name: Heindl, Simon F. last_name: Heindl - first_name: Christian full_name: Ellersdorfer, Christian last_name: Ellersdorfer - first_name: Hermann full_name: Steffan, Hermann last_name: Steffan - first_name: Martin full_name: Wilkening, Martin last_name: Wilkening - first_name: Volker full_name: Hennige, Volker last_name: Hennige - first_name: Reinhard full_name: Tatschl, Reinhard last_name: Tatschl - first_name: Alexander full_name: Geier, Alexander last_name: Geier - first_name: Christian full_name: Schramm, Christian last_name: Schramm - first_name: Stefan Alexander full_name: Freunberger, Stefan Alexander id: A8CA28E6-CE23-11E9-AD2D-EC27E6697425 last_name: Freunberger orcid: 0000-0003-2902-5319 citation: ama: 'Plaimer M, Breitfuß C, Sinz W, et al.

A technical fuel cell stack has been modified by implementing two independent reactant and coolant supplies in order to deliberately change the performance of one cell (anomalous cell) and study the coupling phenomena to adjacent cells (coupling cells), while keeping the working conditions of the later cell-group unaltered.\r\nTwo anomalies are studied: (i) air starvation and (ii) thermal anomaly, in a single anomalous cell in the stack and their coupling to adjacent cells. The results have shown that anomalies inducing considerable changes in the local current density of the anomalous cell (such as air starvation) propagate to adjacent cells affecting their performance. The propagation of local current density changes takes place via the common bipolar plate due to its finite thickness and in-plane conductivity. Consequently, anomalies which do not strongly influence the local current density distribution (such as a thermal anomaly under the studied working conditions) do not propagate to adjacent cells." article_processing_charge: No article_type: original author: - first_name: Marco full_name: Santis, Marco last_name: Santis - first_name: Stefan Alexander full_name: Freunberger, Stefan Alexander id: A8CA28E6-CE23-11E9-AD2D-EC27E6697425 last_name: Freunberger orcid: 0000-0003-2902-5319 - first_name: Matthias full_name: Papra, Matthias last_name: Papra - first_name: Alexander full_name: Wokaun, Alexander last_name: Wokaun - first_name: Felix N. full_name: Büchi, Felix N. last_name: Büchi citation: ama: Santis M, Freunberger SA, Papra M, Wokaun A, Büchi FN.
