    摘要: A lithium-ion battery and methods thereof are disclosed. In an aspect, the lithium-ion battery includes an anode component, a cathode component, a separator, and an electrolyte. The anode component includes an anode current collector and a respective anode coating on each side of the anode current collector. An anode coating includes composite particles including carbon and silicon. A mass fraction of the silicon in the composite particles of the anode coatings may be in a range of about 5 wt. % to about 70 wt. % of the anode coatings. The anode component undergoes a maximum areal expansion (Amax) during the multiple charging and discharging cycles. The anode current collector comprises a copper foil, the copper foil being characterized, before the respective anode coatings are formed thereon, by an ultimate tensile stress (UTS) and a strain at the UTS (εUTS).

    摘要: In an embodiment, a Li-ion battery electrode comprises a conductive interlayer arranged between a current collector and an electrode active material layer. The conductive interlayer comprises first conductive additives and a first polymer binder, and the electrode active material layer comprises a plurality of active material particles mixed with a second polymer binder (which may be the same as or different from the first polymer binder) and second conductive additives (which may be the same as or different from the first conductive additives). In a further embodiment, the Li-ion battery electrode may be fabricated via application of successive slurry formulations onto the current collector, with the resultant product then being calendared (or densified).
