Overview

Three cutting-edge technologies, when used together, can play a transformative role in unlocking the next generation of innovations, efficiency enhancements, performance, and sustainability. The non-destructive analysis of X-ray fluorescence (XRF) for elemental composition ensures material quality and consistency. The high-resolution insights of electron microscopy provide into battery component structures for nanoscale-level optimization. And data-driven approaches to materials informatics predict material behaviors, accelerate discovery, and refine manufacturing processes.
Join us for this webinar to explore the synergy of using them together to drive breakthroughs in the battery lifecycle, from battery R&D through manufacturing and recycling.

Attend this webinar and learn:

  • The benefits of XRF’s non-destructive elemental analysis throughout the battery lifecycle
  • How electron microscopy provides nanoscale structural insights to enhance battery performance
  • How Materials informatics’ is accelerating innovation through data-driven predictions and improving material discovery and manufacturing efficiency.
  • How the synergy of these transformative technologies can shape the future of battery development.
