Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery detection, in particular to a cross-section sample preparation workbench. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion battery pole piece cross-section characterization is widely used in the field of lithium-ion battery pole piece material performance evaluation due to its intuitiveness and effectiveness, such as the uniformity of positive and negative pole pieces of liquid lithium-ion battery pole pieces; the quality of the interface of solid-state batteries, etc. Cross-section characterization usually requires artificial creation of a cross section. Currently, the commonly used methods include scissor cutting, blade cutting, ion grinding, liquid nitrogen brittle breaking, etc.

[0003] At present, in the process of preparing the cross section of the pole piece of lithium-ion battery, the scissor cutting method will cause stress on the upper and lower surfaces of the pole piece, resulting in the damage of the prepared cross section, which cannot characterize the true characteristics of the battery pole piece. The blade cutting method can make the pole piece subject to single-sided stress, and the prepared pole piece cross section is less damaged. However, the pole piece is subjected to huge single-sided stress in a short time when cut by the blade, which will cause the sample to break and fly. The cutting angle must be vertical, and the sharp blade poses a huge safety hazard to the operator. The sample after the break cannot be distinguished from the prepared cross section by the naked eye. The cross section prepared by liquid nitrogen brittle fracture cannot control the size and properties of the sample. The preparation of the cross section by ion grinding requires the preparation of a sample of a specified size and the installation of a silicon wafer combination in advance. The process is cumbersome and complicated. The operator needs a long training to complete the sample preparation. The training cycle is long to ensure that the quality of the prepared battery pole piece cross section sample meets the standard. Utility Model Content
