Application: Method for producing an anode for a lithium-ion battery, and lithium-ion battery (Patent ID: US20240105905A1)
The patent filed by Bayerische Motoren Werke AG describes a method for producing an anode for a lithium-ion battery. The method involves providing an anode collector carrier film, applying a coating compound containing a particulate auxiliary material to the film, and compressing the compound to form an anode film while perforating the anode collector carrier film. The particulate auxiliary material can include lithium ion conductors, Al2O3, TiO2, B2O3, boehmite, synthetic diamond dust, and others with a Mohs hardness ranging from 2 to 10.
Furthermore, the method includes the use of adjuvants like synthetic graphite, natural graphite, carbon nanotubes, carbon fibers, soft carbon, hard carbon, and binders such as styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), polyamide (PA), and others. The coating compound can also contain an anode active material, and the method allows for the application of an active-material coating compound to the anode collector carrier foil. The patent also covers the production of a lithium-ion battery comprising at least one anode prepared using the described method, ensuring the efficient and reliable production of anodes for high-performance batteries.
