Problems solved by technology

In order to further improve the conductivity of the positive pole piece, existing work replaces the above-mentioned conductive additive conductive carbon black with carbon nanotubes, and mixes and coats it with a binder. This method can further improve the conductivity of the pole piece to a certain extent (Zhang Qingtang , Qu Meizhen, etc. Patent Publication No.: CN1770515A), but still need to use binder and current collector

Abstract

The invention discloses a self-supporting flexible carbon nano-tube paper composite electrode material for a lithium ion battery. A carbon nano-tube paper network of the material is formed by using interlaced carbon nano-tubes, and active anode material particles or cathode material particles of the lithium ion battery are compounded with carbon nano-tube paper to form the carbon nano-tube paper composite electrode material. In the electrode material, the carbon nano-tubes form an efficient three-dimensional conductive network, so that a better electron channel is provided for active material particles with low electrical conductivity. Because a bonding agent and a current collector are not needed, the electrode material has a higher active material ratio, and the performance of the electrode material is further improved. Meanwhile, the high mechanical property of the carbon nano-tube paper makes the composite electrode material show flexible characteristics, and as a flexible electrode material, the self-supporting flexible carbon nano-tube paper composite electrode material is hopeful to be widely used in next-generation flexible electronic equipment.
