A recent publication of Cui et al. using data-driven analysis of the formation parameter found that high formation charge currents and temperature in fact increases cycle life by shifting the electrode-specific utilisation range. This work supports their results as we apply a comparable high formation charge current during the pulsing but and observe better cycle life for the pulsed cells. We did neglect the influence of the temperature in this work but are confident in assuming even greater acceleration and optimization taking more parameters into account. However, we point out that our work focuses on a new strategy for the formation, enabling new materials and SEI design and not optimisation. In the future a combination could lead to an acceleration while maintaining or even improved quality and increased possibilities.
