UC San Diego Creates Water-Soluble Battery Binder
4 min read
Engineers at the University of California San Diego published a fluorine-free battery binder on Oct. 9 in Nature Communications. This water-soluble polymer simplifies manufacturing and recycling by eliminating toxic solvents and high heat. Batteries using this new material match conventional lithium-ion performance while allowing clean separation of electrode coatings for reuse.
