In this study, an engineering prelithiation binder strategy based on polyacrylic acid is proposed to improve the initial Coulombic efficiency and cycling lives of SiOx anodes, which can also be applied to other Si anodes.
The low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) and insufficient cycling lives of silicon (Si)-based anodes seriously hinder their eventual introduction into next-generation high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). Herein, an engineering prelithiation binder strategy based on polyacrylic acid (Li(x)PAA) is proposed for representative SiOx anodes. The ICEs and cycling lives of SiOx anodes are significantly improved by precisely controlling the lithiation degree of PAA binder. The ICE of the high-loading (3.0 mg cm(-2)) SiOx electrode increases by 10.9% when the Li(0.75)PAA binder replaces the PAA binder. Moreover, the working mechanism of the lithiation binder strategy to improve the electrochemical performances (especially for ICE) is systematically investigated, which is universally applied to other Si anodes such as Si nanoparticles and Si/graphite. This universal binder strategy and proposed working mechanism provide enlightenment on constructing high-ICE, high-energy-density, and long-life Si-based anodes.
