Schrödinger is excited to be participating in The Battery Show Europe conference taking place on June 18th – 20th in Stuttgart, Germany. Join us for a presentation by Leonie Koch, Principal Application Scientist at Schrödinger, titled “A digital chemistry strategy to accelerate the design of novel battery technologies.”

Abstract: 
The battery market has become a critical economic sector within the automotive industry, demanding for improved, reliable, and lower cost solutions. Physics-based modeling and machine learning can significantly accelerate electrolyte selection and characterization, ensuring that target properties are met. In this presentation, we will show how Schrödinger’s  digital chemistry technology can catalyze selection processes by predicting key properties of battery electrolytes, using physically relevant descriptors, and the application of machine learned force fields to overcome the current limitations of ab-initio density functional theory calculations for getting insights into the nucleation and dynamic evolution of the complex solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) in next-generation battery technologies.
