In this work the potential of employing electrophoretic deposition (EPD) for fabricating Li-ion battery electrodes without using binders and in particular eliminating volatile and toxic organic solvents such as n-methyl 2-pyrrolidone (NMP) is demonstrated. The paper in particular describes the successful application of the EPD method to fabrication of thick (>20 μm) nano-TiO 2 /carbon Li-ion intercalation anodes. The EPD system involves deposition of commercial P25 TiO 2 nanoparticles and carbon black on aluminum foil from an isopropanol bath without making use of charging agents or other additives. Hetero-coagulation of TiO 2 and C particles in the isopropanol medium enabled their 80 V DC cathodic deposition into a well-adhered film with effective intermixing of active and conductive components. Electrochemical testing of the newly binder-free EPD-built electrodes revealed comparable film conductivity, polarization and charge storage capacity properties with the standard binder-based PVDF/NMP electrodes. Most importantly, the charge storage, cycling, and rate properties of the EPD-built electrodes were greatly enhanced by post-EPD sintering of the film at 450 • C. The combined EPD-sintering route resulted in a superior conductive percolating network by promoting nanoscale film composition uniformity, inter-particle necking, and favorable porous structure for enhanced interfacing with the liquid electrolyte. The sintered EPD-built electrode exhibited almost 50% higher capacity retention than that of the standard binder-based electrode upon cycling. EPD with its inherent self-assembling functionality and its overall operational simplicity provides an advantageous and green Li-ion electrode fabrication alternative. Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) are by far the most advanced electrochemical energy storage cells that are presently powering at an ever increasing pace not only mobile electronics but also electric transportation and renewable energy installations. [1][2][3][4] There is tremendous R&D effort in progress to develop increasingly higher performance electrode (anode and cathode) materials and electrolytes 5 to meet the new range of LIB applications, as is the case of electric vehicles. 6 However in this effort equally important is the selection of materials and fabrication technologies that not only lead to high energy and power density LIBs but also are governed by sustainability and affordability principles. It is in this context that the present work seeks to develop a green Li-ion fabrication technology featuring electrophoretic deposition and non-toxic abundant chemicals and materials.Present state-of-the-art electrode fabrication for lithium-ion batteries involves mixing the active powder material (anode or cathode), conductive carbon, and the binder (poly(vinilydene) fluoride, PVDF) by typically dispersing them in a solvent, then tape casting the slurry onto a current collector substrate, and finally followed by drying (at 120• C) and calendaring/pressing. 7 The high cost of PVDF binder and the require...
