  • Patent number: 11973219
    Abstract: A method for pre-lithiation of a negative electrode is disclosed, including the steps of: producing a lithium metal laminate which includes i) lithium metal foil; and ii) a buffer layer including carbonaceous material particles, inorganic compound particles, polymer compound particles or their combination, and coated on one surface of the lithium metal foil; producing a negative electrode including a negative electrode current collector, and a negative electrode active material layer formed on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector; and laminating the lithium metal laminate with the negative electrode in such a manner that the buffer layer of the lithium metal laminate is in contact with the negative electrode active material layer. A lithium metal laminate used for the method is also provided. The pre-lithiation of a negative electrode that includes a buffer layer reduces the problem of rapid volumetric swelling occurring.

  • Patent number: 6712886
    Abstract: An air purification device has an oxygen-supplying function, in which air in an automobile is sucked by a vacuum pump and purified by a dust collector or an adsorbent such as activated carbon and zeolite, and oxygen is enriched in air to supply oxygen enriched air into the automobile. The air purification device enriches oxygen in air according to a VSA (vacuum swing adsorption) process using a difference between pressure in the adsorption bed and atmospheric pressure, in which nitrogen adsorbed into the adsorbent is release using the vacuum pump. The air purification device has an air filter for removing impurities from air sucked from an inside of the automobile by the vacuum pump, an adsorbent for adsorbing nitrogen from air passing through the air filter and passing oxygen, and an oxygen tank for storing oxygen supplied from the adsorbent and releasing oxygen using a vacuum.
