It connects chemistry, cell design, manufacturing, testing, safety, and system integration into one coherent framework, with an emphasis on real-world implementation rather than theory alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCovering the full development path from requirements definition to pack-level validation, it explains how to translate application needs into cell specifications, compare sodium-ion and lithium-ion constraints, and establish meaningful test standards for capacity, power, and safety. The material is structured to support decision-making at every stage of development, from material selection to production readiness.\u003c\/p\u003eWhat the book covers\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eElectrochemistry fundamentals\u003c\/b\u003e for sodium transport, interfacial behavior, kinetics, diffusion, and efficiency loss mechanisms.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCathode and anode engineering\u003c\/b\u003e, including layered oxides, Prussian blue analogues, hard carbon, alloying options, and balancing strategies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eElectrolyte formulation\u003c\/b\u003e with salt, solvent, additive, and contamination control considerations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCell architecture\u003c\/b\u003e topics such as coin, pouch, and cylindrical formats, separator choice, current collectors, and sealing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eManufacturing process design\u003c\/b\u003e for coating, drying, calendaring, formation cycling, and quality assurance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eModeling and characterization\u003c\/b\u003e using EIS, GITT, incremental capacity analysis, and equivalent circuit methods.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThermal and safety engineering\u003c\/b\u003e for heat generation, abuse testing, protection design, and failure traceability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDegradation and failure analysis\u003c\/b\u003e with post mortem workflows and root cause identification.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSystem integration\u003c\/b\u003e guidance for modules, packs, BMS requirements, wiring protection, testing, and cost tradeoffs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003eWhy this book is useful\u003cp\u003eUnlike a basic chemistry overview, this volume focuses on engineering choices that affect performance, reliability, manufacturability, and affordability. It is especially valuable for teams designing storage systems for grid support, off-grid applications, and cost-sensitive deployments where sodium-ion can provide a practical alternative to lithium-based solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe final chapters tie concepts together through worked engineering examples, test plans, and review-ready data package structures, making the book useful both as a learning resource and as a reference during product development and qualification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIdeal for: \u003c\/b\u003e battery engineers, materials scientists, manufacturing teams, validation engineers, and system integrators seeking a grounded, application-oriented treatment of sodium-ion battery technology.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47892925481111,"sku":"9798196044229","price":1548.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798196044229.webp?v=1781190048","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/sodium-ion-battery-engineering-designing-affordable-energy-storage-systems-beyond-lithium-9798196044229","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
