    Abstract: Disclosed are an all-solid battery and a method of manufacturing the same. The all-solid battery as disclosed herein may include current collectors having the same size for a cathode and an anode, the elongation areas of the cathode and the anode may be controlled due to the ductility of the current collectors during a pressing process. Thus, areas of the anode and the cathode may become different from each other upon the pressing, thus preventing a short-circuit fault from being formed at the edge portion thereof in the pressing process.

  • Publication number: 20180342768
    Abstract: An improved, low porosity, solid electrolyte membrane and a method of manufacturing the solid electrolyte membrane are provided. The low porosity, solid electrolyte membrane significantly improves both mechanical strength and porosity of the membrane, inhibits the growth of lithium dendrites (Li dendrites), and thereby maintains and maximizes electrochemical stability of an all-solid-state battery. This is accomplished by wet-coating a sulfide or oxide solid electrolyte particle with a thermoplastic resin, or a mixture of the thermoplastic resin and a thermosetting resin, using a solvent to prepare a composite and hot-pressing the composite at a relatively low temperature and at a low pressure.

  • Publication number: 20170338517
    Abstract: An all solid-state battery is formed of slurry of an electrode/electrolyte/conductive material composite. An outer circumferential surface of the conductive material is coated with a solid electrolyte to form a solid electrolyte layer. Since the surface of the conductive material is coated with a solid electrolyte, contact characteristics between the conductive material and the solid electrolyte and between the conductive material and an electrode can be maximized. Also, since the surface of the conductive material having a large surface area is coated with the solid electrolyte, an ion conductor, the conductive material may be given ion conductivity, as well as electronic conductivity, facilitating securing of an ion conduction path. In addition, since the conductive material having a large surface area is coated with the solid electrolyte, a proportion of the solid electrolyte to the composite may be reduced.
