Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Solvent‐free electrode manufacturing reduces cost and carbon emissions in Li‐ion battery production via eliminating the electrode drying and toxic solvent recovery processes in conventional manufacturing. Herein, lithium iron phosphate‐based cathodes are solvent‐free manufactured via binder fibrillation. Effects of electrode thickness, porosity, and composition on cell performance are investigated for electrode optimization. By balancing the electrode thickness and porosity, the areal capacity exhibits a collective increase under different C‐rates, such as 2.0–2.6 mAh cm −2 uplifting from 0.1 to 0.75 C. These results are different from increasing electrode thickness alone where the increasing tendency in areal capacity becomes flattened with C‐rate, indicating the reduction of active material unitization in thick electrodes. Adhesive lamination of electrode sheets on current collectors is found to improve C‐rate and cycling performance in comparison to non‐laminated electrodes, and the improvement is more effective at higher C‐rates. Four‐probe electrode sheet resistance tests reveal that the resistivity of dry electrodes is independent of electrode thickness when the composition is fixed, which indicates the uniformity and reproducibility the dry electrodes. By increasing the carbon to binder ratios while keeping the active material fraction the same, the electrode resistivity is decreased by 30% which leads to the improvement of C‐rate performance.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
