NETZSCH supports battery and energy-materials teams across California

Battery & Energy Materials Characterization for California Teams

For battery R&D, materials development, cell engineering, quality and process teams, method selection determines the relevance of every measurement. Characterize cathode and anode precursors, active materials, electrode slurries and coatings, electrolytes, binders, separators, cells and modules with methods matched to the question.

NETZSCH Analyzing & Testing helps California teams evaluate thermal and physical characterization approaches for phase behavior, stability, processing and safety-relevant thermal behavior.

Battery Materials Characterization Methods

NETZSCH methods help connect material composition, thermal response and processing behavior across battery raw materials, components, cells and modules.

NETZSCH DSC instrument for polymer thermal analysis.
Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC)

Measure thermal transitions and reaction enthalpies to compare formulations, assess material compatibility and evaluate temperature-dependent behavior in electrolytes, separators, binders and electrode materials.

NETZSCH TG 309 Libra thermogravimetric analyzer.
Accelerating Rate Calorimetry (ARC®)

Measure self-heating rates and temperature development under near-adiabatic conditions to assess thermal stability, investigate thermal runaway behavior and support safety evaluation of battery materials and cells.

NETZSCH dynamic mechanical analyzers for polymer testing.
Multiple Module Calorimetry (MMC)

Determine viscoelastic properties, glass transition, damping and temperature-dependent stiffness to compare mechanical performance across formulations, aging states and service conditions.

NETZSCH DSC instrument for polymer thermal analysis.
Simultaneous Thermal Analysis (STA)

Measure mass changes and heat flow simultaneously as a function of temperature or time to assess thermal stability, distinguish thermal transitions from decomposition and investigate oxidation behavior in electrode materials, binders and separators.

NETZSCH TG 309 Libra thermogravimetric analyzer.
Rotational Rheology

Measure viscosity, flow behavior and viscoelastic properties as a function of temperature, shear rate or frequency to compare formulations, optimize mixing and coating conditions and assess processability and dispersion stability in electrode slurries and other energy-material suspensions.

Built Around Battery Development and Manufacturing Requirements

Battery materials programs must link raw-material variability, formulation, processing conditions and component behavior to defensible measurement data. The appropriate setup considers sample form, temperature program, heating rate, atmosphere and the thermal event to be resolved.

NETZSCH supports teams evaluating methods for:

From precursor screening to cell and module evaluation: define a measurement approach that produces relevant data for development, quality and process decisions.
