ELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS COMPRISING POLYURETHANE-BASED ELECTRODE BINDER COMPOSITIONS

摘要

The invention relates to an electrode binder composition, an electrode made using the described binder composition, and an electrochemical cell made using the described electrode, where the all of these materials are made using a composition of a poly(dialkylene ester) thermoplastic polyurethane composition. The electrode is made using the described thermoplastic polyurethane and an electrode active material. The electrochemical cells can be made using the described electrodes and also using (i) membranes and/or separators made using the described poly(dialkylene ester) thermoplastic polyurethane composition; (ii) an electrolyte system based on the described poly(dialkylene ester) thermoplastic polyurethane composition; or (iii) a combination thereof.
