Functional Polymers for Metal-Ion Batteries

Unique and useful book covering fundamental knowledge and practical applications of polymer materials in energy storage systems

In Functional Polymers for Metal-Ion Batteries, the recent development and achievements of polymer-based materials are comprehensively analyzed in four directions, including electrode materials, binders, separators, and solid electrolytes, highlighting the working mechanisms, classification, design strategies, and practical applications of these polymer materials in mental-ion batteries.

Specific sample topics covered in Functional Polymers for Metal-Ion Batteries include:

  • Prominent advantages of various solid-state electrolytes, such as low flammability, easy processability, more tolerance to vibration, shock, and mechanical deformation
  • Why and how functional polymers present opportunities to maximize energy density and pursue the sustainability of the battery industry
  • How the application of functional polymers in metal-ion batteries helps enhance the high energy density of energy storage devices and reduce carbon footprint during production
  • How development of functional separators could significantly lower the cost of battery manufacturing

Providing a comprehensive understanding of the role of polymers in the whole configuration of metal-ion batteries from electrodes to electrolytes, Functional Polymers for Metal-Ion Batteries is an ideal resource for materials scientists, electrochemists, and polymer, solid state, and physical chemists who wish to understand the latest developments of this technology.
