Charge retention

The voltage between the tab of a pouch cell and the inner aluminum layer of the aluminum-plastic film.

The capacity released by the internal active material of a battery during discharge divided by the mass of the active material.Note: Specific capacity is typically expressed in milliampere-hours per gram (mAh/g). Sometimes, the calculation of specific capacity includes the mass of all non-active materials, such as conductive additives and binders.

​The capacity value of a battery's output measured under specified conditions.Note: Discharge capacity is typically expressed in ampere-hours (Ah) or milliampere-hours (mAh).

Electrode polarization caused by crystal nucleation and growth phenomena.

Battery discharge current expressed in discharge rate (It), where 1ItA equals 1.5 ampere-hours per hour.

The difference in potential between the positive electrode and the negative electrode under a no-load condition.
