Introducing examples of measurement cases for important management items in the production of lithium-ion batteries and all-solid-state batteries!

We would like to introduce a case of particle size measurement of cathode active materials using laser diffraction conducted by our company. In air or liquid, laser light is irradiated onto the particles, and the angular dependence of the intensity of the light scattered by the particles is measured. By measuring the angular dependence of the scattered light intensity, the particle size distribution (particle size distribution) is calculated from the data. Using commercially available reagents as samples, measurements were conducted in a dry state without dispersing in a solvent. The particle size measurement results for NMC oxides showed a monodisperse state with particle sizes below several tens of micrometers, and the median diameter was calculated to be 12 micrometers. [Case Overview] ■ Measurement Method ・Dry method ■ Particle Size Measurement Results for NMC Oxides ・Monodisperse state with particle sizes below several tens of micrometers ・Median diameter is 12 micrometers *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The purity of the electrolyte greatly affects the performance of the battery! It suppresses the volatility of sulfur components and converts them into a form that can be detected by IC.

We will introduce an example of analyzing the purity of diphosphorus pentasulfide using ion chromatography for the composition analysis of raw materials for all-solid-state batteries. Diphosphorus pentasulfide is one of the raw materials used in the production of electrolytes for sulfide-based all-solid-state batteries. As a pretreatment for IC measurement, the powder of diphosphorus pentasulfide was dissolved in alkaline water and converted into phosphate and sulfide salts. Subsequently, the sulfide ions were oxidized to sulfate ions to prepare the IC measurement solution.

[To the owners of parking lots and parking lot construction companies] "I am worried about the possibility of colliding with pedestrians when exiting the parking lot..." Among vehicle entrances to parking lots, stores, residences, and factories, those particularly facing sidewalks or roadways are expected to pose risks of dangerous incidents such as pedestrian collisions and vehicle-to-vehicle accidents. To alleviate such concerns, Hotron proposes a [Vehicle Exit Warning Sensor] that detects vehicle departures at various sites and alerts the surrounding area with LED lights and buzzers. The system consists of a simple configuration of "Sensor" + "Controller" + "Switching Power Supply (24V)" + "LED Rotating Light." *When using the exit warning system, we kindly ask that you arrange for the switching power supply (24V), LED rotating light, control panel, circuit breaker, etc. Since it can be retrofitted, it can also be used for existing parking lot entrances. [Contents Included] ○ Exit Warning System Configuration ○ Comparison Table of Exit Warning Sensors ○ Four Modes ○ Wide Range of Applications ○ Customer Feedback ○ Appearance Diagram / Specifications ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

In facilities operating nurse call systems, we have made bed exit sensors wireless, allowing them to notify in conjunction with the nurse call system. By simply connecting the mat sensor "Foldable Thin Matt-kun," the body movement call "Ugo-kun," and the wheelchair body movement call "Ayumi-chan" to the transmitter HB-RS, you can make the bed exit sensor wireless. The infrared sensor "Just Place Pole-kun" has the transmitter HB-RS built-in. This helps prevent accidents caused by falls, slips, or wandering, contributing to the efficiency of medical operations. 【Features】 ○ Wireless conversion by simply connecting existing sensors to the transmitter HB-WSK. ○ Bed exit sensors notify wirelessly in conjunction with the nurse call system. ○ Up to 5 transmitters can be registered with one receiver. ○ The communication distance between the transmitter and receiver is approximately 10 meters. ◎ For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

On December 23rd (Tuesday), the Japan Meteorological Agency announced the three-month forecast for January to March. During this period, there will be times when the extension of the Siberian high pressure is weak to the northeast and strong to the southeast, which may lead to the influence of cold air from the west. As a result, temperatures nationwide are expected to be nearly average from January to February. For more details, please visit our company website.

Full and empty management refers to the real-time display of parking availability and the management of efficient use of parking spaces. By utilizing Hotron's sensors, drivers can quickly discover available parking spaces, achieving efficient parking lot operations. ■ For large parking lots, the "floor management method" and "block management method," which focus on cost reduction, are recommended. Sensors are installed at regular intervals to count the number of vehicles passing through. This method offers the advantage of easy installation and low costs. 【Target Products】 - Vehicle Count Sensor CCS2 - Ultrasonic Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 ■ For smaller scale operations, the "space management method," which installs sensors in each parking space to display availability with high accuracy, is recommended. By ensuring accurate full and empty displays, it helps prevent unnecessary entry of new vehicles and enables safe parking lot operations. 【Target Products】 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-UX2/UW2 - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-LC6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-LC7/LC7-FLS - Occupancy/Pass Detection Sensor HM-S6 - Occupancy Detection Sensor HM-S8
