The Electrochemical Society hosted “Development and Application of a 3-Electrode Setup for the Operando Detection of Side Reactions in Li-Ion Batteries,” a live webinar by Lennart Reuter and Leonhard J. Reinschlüssel (Technische Universität München), on August 6, 2025. A live Question and Answer session followed. Answers to some of the questions not addressed during the broadcast follow. Registration is required to view the webinar replay.
We’re thrilled to recognize one of the top-read articles in the Journal of The Electrochemical Society (JES): “Changes in Structure and Ionic Resistance of Lithium-Ion Battery Graphite Electrodes – Part I: Impact of Formation and SEI” by Jonas L. S. Dickmanns, Lennart Reuter, Robert Morasch, Filippo Maglia, Roland Jung, and Hubert A. Gasteiger. This study dives into the structural evolution of graphite electrodes during the formation process of lithium-ion batteries—particularly the development of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI). The authors…
