Improving the cycling stability of lithium-ion batteries with a dry-processed cathode via the synergistic effect of carboxymethyl cellulose and siloxane
The solvent-free dry process for fabricating battery electrodes has received widespread attention owing to its low cost and environmental friendliness.However,the conventional polytetrafluoroethylene(PTFE)used as a binder in the preparation of dry-processed electrodes results in in-sufficient adhesion,limiting their practical industrial appli-cations.Herein,we reported an industrially viable dry process for producing lithium-ion batteries using the combination of carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)and siloxane as the binder composite.The synergistic effect of CMC and siloxane en-hanced the adhesive performance of the electrode,thereby improving the mechanical strength and electrochemical per-formance of the developed dry-processed electrode.Half cells based on aluminum-doped lithium manganese oxide(LMA)dry-processed electrodes with CMC and siloxane(LMA/CS)exhibited a capacity retention of 79.8%after 200 cycles at 1 C.Furthermore,LMA/CS||lithium titanate oxide full cells with a high mass loading of 20.6 mg cm-2 demonstrated an excellent capacity retention of 89.2%after 1000 cycles,which is con-siderably higher than that of cells based on slurry-processed electrodes prepared with a polyvinylidene fluoride binder and conventional dry-processed electrodes prepared using a PTFE binder.
