Industrial PhD (LRCS – Renault, December 2017–). Project: “Gas generation inside the Li-ion batteries: Comprehension of mechanisms and proposition of solutions”. Advisor: Prof. Stéphane LARUELLE. Li-ion batteries are present in almost every electric vehicle. During their use, the liquid electrolyte degrades over time and forms gas. This gas is not only penalizing for the performance of the battery (increase of the internal resistance...), but it also induces mechanical stresses at the level of the modules, leading to their damage. In this same context, this thesis work will allow to study, at first, the physicochemical mechanisms leading to the gas evolution (for the currently used chemistries and those under development); and secondly, it will involve the proposition of approaches to limit or eliminate the gas, especially at the level of electrolyte additives.Parcours
