Solid state batteries represent a significant leap forward in electric vehicle technology. Unlike traditional lithium-ion batteries, which consist of a liquid electrolyte, solid-state batteries use a solid electrolyte, improving energy storage capacity and reducing charging times. Traditional lithium-ion cells contain four elements: anode, cathode, liquid electrolyte, and separator. Solid-state batteries simplify this design to just three elements: anode, cathode, and solid electrolyte, which acts as both an ionic conductor and separator Solid-state electrolytes can be polymeric, ceramic, or hybrid. Polymeric electrolytes enable ion transport through their molecular structure and can…
