The present invention relates to a method for producing a precursor material () for an electrochemical cell. The method comprises the steps of adding a matrix material () to a fluidized bed (), and adding a carrier medium () and a de-agglomerated carbon nanotube material () to the fluidized bed (), so that the carbon nanotube material () and the carrier medium () is applied to the matrix material () and the latter is granulated therewith, wherein the carbon nanotube material () has been suspended and de-agglomerated prior to addition to the carrier medium (), and/or the carbon nanotube material () present in de-agglomerated form in the fluidized bed () dissolving with the carrier medium () in the fluidized bed ().

Method for producing a precursor material for an electrochemical cell

A process for producing a composite material comprising at least one particulate material and at least one polymeric binder, wherein the at least one particulate material and the at least one polymeric binder are mixed with one another and mechanically processed in the presence of at least one process auxiliary which reduces the mechanical and/or chemical interaction between the surfaces of the at least one particulate material and of the at least one polymeric binder, essentially dispensing with the use of solvents, characterized in that the weight ratio of process auxiliary to polymeric binder is within a range from 3:10 to 0.1:20.

The invention relates to a method for producing an electrode (E) for an electrochemical cell, in particular for a lithium cell. In order to produce a homogeneous mixture allowing the time-saving, cost-effective production, for example by dry coating, of an electrode (E) with improved properties and/or with a layer thickness significantly greater than 100 &#x3bc;m, for example for vehicle batteries, in particular for electric and/or hybrid vehicles, in said method at least one binder (B) and at least one particulate fibrillation auxiliary agent (F) are mixed in a mixing process with a high shear load, the at least one binder (B) being fibrillated (fB), and at least one electrode component (E) is then added to the at least one fibrillated binder (B) in a mixing process with a low shear load. The invention also relates to an electrode (E) produced in this manner and to an electrochemical cell equipped with an electrode (E) of this type.

An electrical energy storage device includes prismatic energy storage cells arranged adjacent to one another such that interfaces of adjacent storage cells run at a distance from one another such that the interfaces of the adjacent storage cells form an intermediate space. A respective first layer is arranged between the interfaces of adjacent storage cells, the first layer abutting one of the two interfaces of the adjacent storage cells under pressure. Either the respective first layer also abuts the second of the two interfaces of the adjacent storage cells under pressure, or a second layer is arranged between the interfaces of adjacent storage cells, the second layer abutting the second of the two interfaces of the adjacent storage cells under pressure. A heat-conducting device is arranged in or between the first layer and the second layer is conducted out of the intermediate space between the adjacent storage cells.

A method for determining an overall loss of capacitance of a secondary cell, for example of an accumulator, which is brought about by ageing processes is provided. The overall loss of capacitance is determined additively from partial losses of capacitance which are determined by means of various parameters from various functions. A partial loss of capacitance is determined under constant peripheral conditions. If the peripheral conditions change, the partial losses of capacitance follow one another directly, i.e. with respect to the same loss of capacitance. The interval of the respective charge throughput rate is shifted here. The overall loss of capacitance of a secondary cell can be extended to the overall loss of capacitance of a package composed of a plurality of secondary cells.

A converter arrangement has at least one AC voltage connection, at which an alternating current can be fed in or drawn, and at least one DC voltage connection, at which a direct current can be fed in or drawn. The converter arrangement contains at least two series circuits connected in parallel. The external connections of the series circuits form the DC voltage connections of the converter arrangement. Each of the series circuits is connected in parallel and contains in each case at least two submodules connected in series, each of the submodules containing at least two switches and a capacitor. An energy store is to be connected to the capacitor of at least one of the submodules, wherein a filter is connected electrically between the capacitor and the energy store.
