20120107688 | BINDER FOR LITHIUM ION RECHARGEABLE BATTERY CELLS - An electrode for a rechargeable battery cell includes a substrate, e.g., a current collector and a particulate silicon forming active material in the electrode, along with a cellulose based binder. At least one chelating agent is provided, the chelating agent being capable of binding to the metallic impurities, e.g., divalent and/or trivalent impurities. The binder is mixed with the silicon particles to form a cohesive mass that adheres to the substrate. It has been found that cellulose based binders can also be used in cells where the active material is silicon if a chelating agent is also incorporated. The electrode can be used in a lithium ion rechargeable battery cell. | 05-03-2012 |
20120135308 | BINDER FOR LITHIUM ION RECHARGEABLE BATTERY CELLS - An electrode for lithium ion recharged battery cell includes current collectors, a cathode layer, a separator and a cohesive anode mass. The cohesive anode mass includes silicon as an active material and a polymeric binder. The polymeric binder is a homo-polymer or copolymer of one or more monomers selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, 3-butenoic acid, 2-methacrylic acid, 2-pentenoic acid, 2,3-dimethylacrylic acid, 3,3-dymethylacrylic acid, trans-butenedioc acid, cis-butenedioc acid and itaconic acid and optionally an alkali metal salt thereof. The silicon can include 20 to 100% of the active material in the cohesive mass. The binder is mixed with the silicon to form the cohesive mass that adheres to the current collector and maintains the cohesive mass in electrical contact with the current collector. | 05-31-2012 |
