摘要
The paper discusses the progress and commercialization of binders for energy storage applications,such as batteries.It explains the role of binders in holding together active materials and current collectors,and highlights the challenges associated with conventional organic solvents in binders.The potential of aqueous binders is introduced as a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative.The advantages and limitations of different types of binders are discussed,and the importance of binder selection for optimal battery performance is emphasized.The current state of commercialization of binders is reviewed,and the need for collaboration between researchers,manufacturers,and policymakers to develop and promote environmentally friendly and cost-effective binders is emphasized.The paper concludes by outlining future directions for research and development to further improve the performance and commercialization of binders,while addressing limitations such as lack of standardization,high cost,and long-term stability and reliability.
