    The advancement and manufacture of energy storage solutions, like lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, and fuel cells, are vital for progress in renewable energy, electric mobility, and mobile electronics. A key challenge in manufacturing these technologies is mixing active materials and electrolytes to ensure maximum performance and lifespan. Trajectory mixing, an advanced mixing technology, offers significant advantages in this process.

    Trajectory mixing

    Trajectory Mixing involves mixing materials through the movement of the container along a 2-dimensional curved path. These movements follow precise patterns known as Lissajous figures. The resulting accelerations generate shear and tensile forces, which efficiently achieve a homogeneous mix. The ability to control the movement parameters allows the mixing quality to be tailored to specific requirements.

    Application in the Production of Lithium-Ion Batteries

    Cathode and Anode Materials

    Trajectory mixing ensures the uniform distribution of active materials like Lithium-Nickel-Manganese-Cobalt Oxide (NMC) or Lithium Iron Phosphate (LFP) for the cathode and graphite for the anode. This homogeneous distribution can enhance the electrochemical performance and longevity of batteries.

    Reduced Agglomeration

    The technology prevents the formation of undesirable agglomerates, which could compromise the quality and durability of batteries and fuel cells.

    Electrolyte Solutions

    • Uniform Mixing: Electrolytes, crucial for ion transport in batteries, must be uniformly mixed with additives. Trajectory mixing ensures that electrolyte solutions remain homogeneous, thereby improving the efficiency and safety of batteries.
    • Purity and Consistency: Inert process containers and high mixing efficiencies enable the production of high-quality products.
    Production of Supercapacitors

    Electrode Mixing

    Uniform distribution of activated carbon or graphene in electrode materials maximizes surface area and enhances the capacity of supercapacitors.

    Optimized Pore Structure

    Controlled movement profiles in trajectory mixing allow precise adjustment of electrode pore structure, boosting supercapacitor performance.

    Electrolyte Mixing

    • Homogeneous Electrolyte Solutions: Trajectory mixing ensures uniform distribution of electrolyte solutions, enhancing stability and efficiency.
    • Reduced Energy Input: The gentle mixing technique minimizes the risk of thermal decomposition of electrolytes, increasing the safety and lifespan of supercapacitors.
