Currently, there is no one standardized format for a lithium-ion battery. The battery cell format and shape is selected based on the user's needs, which ultimately influences the design of the battery module. Battery cells are designed in different shapes and form-factors: cylindrical, prismatic and pouch cells. The inner structure, the electrode-separator-compound, are di. Cylindrical cells consist of sheet-like battery anode, cathode, and separator that are sandwiched, rolled up, and packed into a cylinder-shaped can. This type of cell is one of the first to be. Pouch cells do not have a rigid outside can and use a sealed flexible foil as the cell container. The electrode and separator layers of a pouch cell are stacked. With pouch cells, the. Prismatic cells consist of large sheets of anodes, cathodes, and separators sandwiched, rolled up, and pressed to fit into a metallic or hard-plastic housing in cubic form. The e.
