This part of IEC 62607 provides a standardized test method for the measurement of contact and coating resistivity of nano-enabled electrode materials. This method will enable a customer to: a) decide whether or not a coating composite material is usable, and b) select best combinations of coating composite material with fabrication technologies suitable for their application. This part of IEC 62607 includes: – definitions of terminology used in this part of IEC 62607, – recommendations for sample preparation, – outlines of the experimental procedures used to measure and calculate the contact and coating resistivity, – methods of interpretation of results and discussion of data analysis, and – a case study.
