摘要

A flexible screen-printed graphite electrode was fabricated as an anode for developing fast-charging lithium-ion batteries with low tortuosity. A homogenous anode ink was prepared by mixing graphite as the active material, carbon black (C45) as the conductive additive, and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as the binder in N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) solvent. The ink was deposited on a flexible copper foil via a stainless-steel screen consisting of an array of pores, that act as secondary pore networks (SPNs), using the screen-printing process. Lithium-ion battery half-cells were assembled using the printed graphite anode, lithium metal foil as the counter electrode, and 1.2 M lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) in ethyl carbonate: ethyl methyl carbonate (EC: EMC = 3:7) as the electrolyte. The effect of SPNs on the cell performance was investigated by performing formation, rate and cycling tests on the assembled cells, at different C-rates. It was observed that the cells consisting of SPNs with a pore size of 100 μm and edge-to-edge distance of 100 μm between the pores exhibited significantly higher specific capacities of 168 and 129 mAh/g when compared to reference cells without SPNs, which had capacities of 120 and 85 mAh/g, at high C-rates of 4 C and 6 C, respectively. The cells with SPNs also demonstrated excellent cycling performance with ~ 95% capacity retention after 100 cycles at 2 C.
