Abstract

Provided herein is a lithium-ion battery cathode slurry, comprising: a cathode active material, a conductive agent, a binder material, and a solvent, wherein the cathode active material has a particlesize D50 in the range from about 10 mu m to about 50 mu m, and wherein the slurry coated onto a current collector having a wet film thickness of about 100 mu m has a drying time of about 5 minutes orless under an environment having a temperature of about 60 DEG C to about 90 DEG C and a relative humidity of about 25% to about 40%. The cathode slurry disclosed herein has homogeneous ingredient dispersion and quick drying capability for making a lithium-ion battery with high quality and consistent performance. In addition, these properties of the cathode slurry increase productivity and reducethe cost of manufacturing lithium-ion batteries.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to electrode pastes. More specifically, the present invention relates to cathode slurries for lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] Over the past two decades, lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have attracted considerable attention for their widespread use in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and notebook computers. Due to the rapid market development of electric vehicles (EV) and grid energy storage, high-performance, low-cost LIBs currently offer one of the most promising options for large-scale energy storage devices. [0003] In general, a lithium-ion battery includes a separator, cathode, and anode. Currently, electrodes are prepared by dispersing fine powders of the active battery electrode material, conductive agent and binder material in a suitable solvent. The dispersion can be coated on a current collector such as copper or aluminum foil and then dried at high temperature to remove the...
