Services in batteries

Do you want to understand how electrical contact between surfaces is affected by pressure, material, and corrosion? RISE offers interfacial contact resistance measurements which fives valuble insight in electrical and mechanical properties, crucial for devoplment within for example batteries, fuel …

Adhesion tests are crucial to ensure that the electrode coating material does not crack or detach from the current collector during use. These tests help evaluate the adhesion strength and lifespan of electrodes, which is important to prevent battery failures. Common tests include 90° peel tests an…

Do you need comprehensive testing of battery cells, modules and full battery packs under real-time conditions? Welcome to benefit from our new built test lab as well as testing, regulations, and standards expertise.

RISE offers expertise in carbon footprint calculation according to the EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542.

Impact test means the battery being subjected to an impact from another body that is dropped or hurled at the battery.

Forced deformation tests of batteries involve exposing the battery to a force that strains the battery for a certain period of time.

Free fall-testing involves dropping the battery from a certain height onto a hardened surface.

To pave the way for optimizing battery recycling processes, a proper analysis of ‘black mass’ and spent battery components before and after recycling is very important. 

Climate testing of batteries is performed to evaluate or determine that a battery can operate in and handle different climates. These tests are essential to ensure battery performance and to fulfil specific requirements for the battery's intended use.

Vibration testing of batteries is carried out to ensure that batteries can withstand the vibrations they may be subjected to in different applications. This is important to guarantee the safety and functionality of the battery. In some cases, it is necessary to fulfil national and international req…

UNECE R100 is an international standard for rechargeable battery systems for electric vehicles. The standard specifies the requirements for batteries in electric vehicles.

To immersion test batteries means immersing a battery in a liquid, and then evaluating how it is affected. After test, any damage to the battery is examined. This is important to ensure that batteries have sufficient protection against external impact.

The purpose of fire testing of batteries is to investigate the safety and performance of a battery under various conditions. This is a kind of safety-critical testing that often leads to severe fire and, in some cases, explosion.

Thermal propagation is when an increase in temperature in one part of a battery leads to a chain reaction where the temperature rises rapidly throughout the battery. This implies a major security risk.

It is important to choose compatible polymers that can withstand metal salt solutions or strong acids/bases depending on the battery system. We can help in this process by advising and testing polymer compatibility under a range of conditions.

It is important that the plastics used in batteries, including the components separator, binder, electrolyte, and electrodes are able to withstand metal salts, harsh acids and bases that can be used as electrolytes under cycled or high temperatures, over a range of pressures. This enables optimizat…
