Technology for batteries that will cause a revolution. A battery whose capacity will not degrade. That's what they're supposed to be about "fixed" batteries in our future smart devices.
Solid state batteries: Capacity degradation a thing of the past?
A well-known South Korean company comes with the news Samsung. His plans for the production of new types of so-called "fixed" accumulators originally planned until 2027. However, recent developments indicate an earlier start of production, mainly due to emerging competition that wants to eliminate the shortcomings of current cells.
The goal is to streamline production, while Samsung is actively involved in rigorous testing and prototyping, which is expected to revolutionize energy storage.
Change in production technology
"Solid-state" or in translation the so-called "Fixed" batteries are coming as the future, which is ready to overshadow the standard lithium-polymer cells (Li-Po batteries), which are the standard equipment of our smartphones today. And with their new construction, they offer several key advantages.
Safety and reliability
The new battery technology shows improved safety features compared to Li-Po cells. Because the use of solid electrolytes reduces the risk of battery leakage or thermal runaway.
Energy density
Solid state batteries also boast the potential for higher energy density. He promises us that longer and effective solution energy storage, even at the cost of the complex and currently more expensive production process of these cells.
Cycle life
The big advantage of the new "Solid-state" cells is their longevity. As we mentioned above, solid state batteries outperform Li-Po cells. They are already susceptible to degradation over time, which also affects their final performance or capacity drop.
Temperature stability
The big question mark of current cells is the temperature during use. Despite the extremely sophisticated and numerous security elements, we can monitor current fluctuations Li-Po batteries when the temperature drops to minus or vice versa at high temperatures. Fixed batteries are somewhat less sensitive to temperature changes, which ensures their optimal performance even in extreme conditions.
What is the future?
Samsung is a pioneer in mass production of new the so-called "fixed batteries" and it is these well-known steps in speeding up the massive production process that are an indication that the era of Li-Po cells in our smartphones is coming to an end. Higher density, improved safety and extended life, this is the future.
A new wind in the field of battery innovation
However, the popular South Korean brand will not be the only one. The competition is also preparing its steps, especially in the form of Chinese brands. However, Samsung is an example of how the industry is moving towards safer and more efficient solutions. The race to revolutionize battery cells is in full swing and we wonder which company will offer us more.
