The cover part has a recess extending through the cover part, e.g., axially, which is covered by the fan, e.g., by the suction region of the fan, e.g., on the side of the cover part facing away from the storage module, and the energy store has a deflection hood, e.g., for deflecting the conveyed air flow in the axial direction, on the side of the cover part facing away from the storage module.
COMPOSITE SOLID STATE ELECTROLYTE SLURRY, FILM, PREPARATION METHOD AND ALL SOLID STATE BATTERY
The present application provides a composite solid state electrolyte slurry, a film, a preparation method, and an all solid state battery. The method includes: adding a polymer into a non-polar solvent and mixing the polymer and the non-polar solvent to obtain a sol; adding a solid state electrolyte powder and a lithium salt solution into the sol and mixing the solid state electrolyte powder, the lithium salt solution and the sol to obtain a composite solid state electrolyte slurry; the non-polar solvent is an organic solvent that does not react with the solid state electrolyte powder; the high shear force of the sol is used to disperse the solid state electrolyte powder and lithium salt solution, thereby the solid state electrolyte powder and the lithium salt solution are uniformly dispersed in the sol.
