Non-destructive visualization for battery R&D, manufacturing, and recycling Types: - Lithium-ion (Li-ion) - Lithium polymer (LiPo) - Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) - Lithium manganese oxide (LiMn2O4) - Lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) - Lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) - Lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (NCA) CT scanning gives access to: Sometimes charging and discharging of lithium batteries can cause internal shorts. This is due to the formation of lithium dendrites or metallic filaments. CT inspection may be needed for the detection or precursors of thermal runaway as well. - Dendrite pathways - Dendrite growth into separators
