About This Calculator
This tool calculates the mass penalty of using different current collector materials compared to the industry standard plated copper baseline (6μm thickness). The calculator helps you understand:
- How collector material choice affects total cell mass
- The impact on energy density (Wh/kg)
- Whether the mass penalty is acceptable for your application
- Recommendations for optimization
Baseline: 6μm electroplated copper, typical for high-energy Li-ion cells
