AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Such structural degradation of silicon within the active material typically results in reduced intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions within the active material, resulting in reduced capacity and / or cycle life
Additionally, mechanical degradation of silicon often results in electrical disconnection of silicon within the active material
This electrical disconnection of the silicon, caused by the mechanical degradation of the silicon particles, often results in a further reduction in cycle life and increased capacity loss
