We offer safe disassembly of batteries for further examination, especially after complete discharge. Disassembly, i.e. dismantling the battery into its individual components, is carried out under controlled conditions to ensure maximum safety and minimize potential hazards from residual charges or chemical reactions.
Our approach to delaboration:
Complete discharge: Before dismantling, we make sure that the battery is completely discharged to avoid risks such as short circuits or thermal events.
Safe disassembly: In special, secure laboratory environments, we disassemble the battery cells into their components - electrodes, electrolyte and housing. Special tools and protective devices are used to ensure the safe handling of the materials.
Sample preparation for analysis: After safe delaboration, we prepare the individual components for detailed analysis. This includes taking samples of the electrodes, electrolytes and separators for chemical, structural and electrochemical investigation.
Safety precautions: We apply high safety standards throughout the entire process to ensure the protection of personnel and the environment. These include special protective clothing, isolated work areas and the controlled handling of reactive materials.
With this approach, we enable a comprehensive analysis of battery materials after discharge in order to gain valuable insights into aging processes, degradations or performance optimizations.
