SK On solves key challenge for silicon anode all-solid-state batteries
SK On said it and Yonsei University developed a new material binder, PPMA, aimed at commercialising silicon anode all-solid-state batteries. The electronic conductive polymer is designed to secure both conductivity and adhesion, addressing structural safety issues. SK On said it operated batteries with the binder under pressure conditions close to commercialisation and verified performance in high-energy-density pouch cells under conditions for electric vehicles, maintaining initial performance after hundreds of charge-discharge cycles.
