Effects of binders on electrochemical properties of high capacity silicon composite anodes

In this study, the effects of four kinds of binders including polyimide (PI), sodium alginate (SA), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) on the electrochemical properties of a high capacity silicon composite anode ([email protected]) were investigated. Phase constitutes and morphologies of the [email protected] anode materials were carried out using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM),...
