Abstract: A vehicle air conditioner for minimizing the leakage of air through a dual blocking structure between upper and lower flow paths, and having a dual blocking structure. An air-conditioning case having an inner air flow path is divided into an upper flow path and a lower flow path. A heat exchanger for cooling and a heat exchanger for heating are provided in the air flow path of the air-conditioning case. A member having through-holes is disposed downstream of the heat exchanger for heating in the flow direction of air and allows the air that has passed through the heat exchanger for heating to pass therethrough. The member having through-holes has a horizontal member dividing the upper flow path from the lower flow path. A leakage-preventing means is overlapped with the horizontal member so as to prevent the air in the upper flow path and the lower flow path from mixing.

Abstract: A solid electrolyte membrane for a solid-state battery and a battery comprising the same is provided. The battery may comprise lithium metal as a negative electrode active material. The solid electrolyte membrane comprises an inhibiting layer, which is preferably capable of inhibiting growth of lithium dendrite, because it includes an effective amount of a dendrite growth-inhibiting material, which is capable of ionizing lithium deposited in the form of metal. Thus, when lithium metal is used as a negative electrode for a solid-state battery comprising the solid electrolyte membrane, it is possible to delay and/or inhibit growth of lithium dendrite, and thus to effectively prevent an electrical short-circuit caused by dendrite growth.
