Research abstract
Quallion currently manufactures hermitically sealed, prismatic 15Ah and 72Ah lithium-ion cells for the aerospace community. The cells are undergoing real-time life testing at varios government agencies, in which the 15Ah cell has demonstrated over 12,000 LEO cycles at a 60% depth of discharge (DOD). Under these conditions, Quallion expects the cell to perform over 50,000 cycles. Quallion’s response to this solicitation calls for the evaluations of new designs of a terminal seal to remain hermetic during its expected 20 year service life and provide resistance to electrolyte corrosion.
