Silicon Oxide (SiO) Anode Enabled by a Conductive Polymer Binder and Performance Enhancement by Stabilized Lithium Metal Power (SLMP)

Silicon alloys have the highest specific capacity when used as anode material for lithium-ion batteries, however, the drastic volume change inherent in their use causes formidable challenges toward achieving stable cycling performance. Large quantities of binders and conductive additives are typically necessary to maintain good cell performance.
