CROSS-LINKED BINDER FOR LITHIUM ION BATTERIES

摘要

The presently disclosed and/or claimed inventive concept(s) relates to a binder composition comprising a cross-linked polymer system. The cross-linked polymer system comprises an ionizable water soluble polymer cross-linked with a component using an esterification catalyst and/or an epoxy resin with two or more epoxide groups. The presently disclosed and/or claimed inventive concept(s) also relates generally to the compositions and methods of making electrodes, in particular but without limitation, anodes, with a binder composition comprising an ionizable water soluble polymer cross-linked with a component.
