DEMS for In-situ Gas Analysis during Battery Charge/Discharge
Mass spectrometers are a powerful instrument for identifying the composition of the substance and can be used for gas analysis, with advantages ranging from the smallest hydrogen molecules to large molecular organic vapours of several hundred molecules, which can be analysed, as an all-power gas analyser, with advantages such as low detection limits, high sensitivity, wide linear ranges and low consumption of the required gases, and with advantages such as isotope marking, which can be widely applied to all types of battery gases.
In situ electrochemical mass spectra is also known as online electrochemical mass spectrometry, differential electrochemical mass spectrometry, DEMS, OLEMS, etc., which can be used for online analysis of the production of gases during the charging process for various types of energy storage devices, such as lithium ion batteries, and for the type of batteries consumed by gases, such as air batteries, which can be used for quantitative analysis of battery gas consumption, allowing real-time analysis of the generation or consumption of gases at different stages of battery operation, i.e., the distribution of gas generation or consumption during battery discharge in response to voltage, which is one of the important analytical tools for the study of battery electrochemical response mechanisms, rapid screening of electrodes, and evaluation of electrolyte breakdown.
