This electrode sheet is single-sided coated and requires careful handling to prevent damage to the active layer. The high-nickel content necessitates dry storage and assembly to avoid moisture-induced degradation.

• Handling constraint: Handle the electrode by the edges only and avoid touching the coated surface to prevent contamination or delamination.
• Storage constraint: Store the electrode in a sealed container with desiccant under an inert atmosphere to minimize moisture and oxygen exposure.
• Assembly constraint: Use the electrode only in a dry-room or glovebox environment with dew point below −40 °C to preserve electrochemical performance.

These steps describe the safe handling and preparation of the single-sided cathode sheet for use in lithium-ion battery testing. Proper technique ensures coating integrity and electrochemical performance.

Required Equipment: Ceramic scissors or precision cutter, Vacuum oven, Argon-filled glovebox

1. Inspect the electrode
   Inspect the electrode visually for any visible defects such as cracks, pinholes, or delamination before processing.
2. Cut to size
   Cut the electrode to the desired dimensions using ceramic scissors or a precision cutter on a clean, lint-free surface.
3. Dry the electrode
   Dry the cut electrode in a vacuum oven at 80–100 °C for 12 hours under reduced pressure to remove residual moisture.
4. Transfer to glovebox
   Transfer the dried electrode directly into an argon-filled glovebox with oxygen and moisture levels below 0.1 ppm for cell assembly.

This Ni90 single-sided cathode sheet features a high active material ratio of 97.4% and a consistent areal density of 28.5 mg/cm² via wet processing, delivering 200 mAh/g capacity ideal for Li-ion battery R&D. However, users must account for a mandatory 12-hour vacuum bake at 100°C and the single-sided format restricts certain cell configurations.

Positive

• High active material ratio: 97.40% active material content minimizes inactive components, providing 200 mAh/g specific capacity for accurate electrochemical characterization.
• Precision wet-coated areal density: 28.5 mg/cm² loading with single-side coating ensures uniform electrode layer for reproducible half-cell or full-cell testing.

Trade-offs

• Mandatory vacuum bake preconditioning: Electrode requires 12-hour vacuum baking at 100°C before use, adding preparation time and requiring a vacuum oven.
• Single-sided coating format: Coating on one side only limits direct use in standard stacked or wound cells; paired counter electrodes or custom cell fixtures are needed.
