A novel capillary electrophoresis (CE) method with ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV–Vis) detection for the investigation of dissolved Cu + and Cu 2+ in lithium ion battery (LIB) electrolytes was developed. This method is of relevance, as the current collector at the anode of LIBs may dissolve under certain operation conditions.
Diagnosing medical conditions through electrophoresis is most effective when carried out by an interprofessional team that includes specialists such as internal medicine physicians, biochemists, laboratory medicine experts, and laboratory technicians.
The same thing happens with lithium ion batteries. What happens during over discharge is that it is possible to reverse charge at least one cell in the battery. This will cause a lot of damage to the cell which is reverse charged. The reverse charging can be regarded in some ways as an extreme version of discharging the cell.
Due to this, the convection current as well as the heat related zone broadening is minimized and the electrophoresis can be performed even in the absence of any stabilizing medium in a free-flow mode. Owing to the enhanced heat dissipation through capillaries, the electrophoresis is carried out at a very high voltage (10–50 kV).
In paper electrophoresis, good quality filter paper or electrophoresis paper are first cut into appropriate dimensions. The ends of the paper strip either directly or with the help of wicks or gauze, are connected to two buffer reservoirs placed in a horizontal or vertical fashion. A vertical paper electrophoresis system is shown in Fig. 6.
