  • Publication number: 20210249694
    Abstract: Provided is a method for manufacturing an all-solid-state battery which allows a solid electrolyte layer and an electrode to be in sufficiently close in contact with each other without deformation of the electrode shape or damages upon the electrode. The method for manufacturing an all-solid-state battery includes applying slurry for a solid electrolyte layer to the surface of an electrode active material layer to form a patterned solid electrolyte layer, and carrying out pressurization to form a solid electrolyte layer.

  • Patent number: 10903479
    Abstract: Disclosed is an apparatus for manufacturing an electrode or a solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state battery. The apparatus for manufacturing an electrode or a solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state battery includes a first roller member configured to press an electrode or a solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state battery, and a second roller member located to be spaced apart from the first roller member to press the electrode or the solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state battery. The first roller member and the second roller member are disposed at opposite locations based on the electrode or the solid electrolyte for an all-solid-state battery.
