How Particle Size Affects Consolidation Behavior, Strain and Properties of Li6PS5Cl Fast Ionic Conductors

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
The densification process of Li6PS5Cl powders with varying particles size distributions reveals differences in smaller and larger distributions. Higher strain is revealed for the smaller particle size distribution from X‐ray diffraction. Discrete element method simulations uncover that the reason for the higher strain is not the particle size itself ...
