“…They are also highly resistant to autoignition, involve relatively low processing costs, and can form hydrogen bonds with the Si within the anode, a process that leads to improvements in the adhesive, mechanical, and electrochemical properties . Poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), , poly(acrylamide) (PAM), , poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), , and polysaccharide-type materials, including carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), , sodium alginate (SA), , and carrageenan (CGN), , are a few of the most popular aqueous polymer binders. These binders have improved cycle stability for LIBs compared to poly(vinylidene fluoride), or PVDF, which is widely used as both a cathode and anode binder for LIBs.…”
