ELECTRODE STRUCTURE FOR SECONDARY BATTERY, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME, AND SECONDARY BATTERY COMPRISING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17931631 titled 'ELECTRODE STRUCTURE FOR SECONDARY BATTERY, METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME, AND SECONDARY BATTERY COMPRISING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes an electrode design for a secondary battery, which includes a current collector and an active material structure. The active material structure consists of at least one first high-density layer and at least one second high-density layer, with the second high-density layer being further away from the current collector than the first high-density layer. A low-density layer is present between the first and second high-density layers. The thickness of the second high-density layer is greater than that of the first high-density layer.

  • The electrode design includes a current collector and an active material structure.
  • The active material structure consists of at least one first high-density layer and at least one second high-density layer.
  • The second high-density layer is located further away from the current collector compared to the first high-density layer.
  • A low-density layer is present between the first and second high-density layers.
  • The thickness of the second high-density layer is greater than that of the first high-density layer.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Secondary batteries used in various electronic devices such as smartphones, laptops, and electric vehicles.
  • Energy storage systems for renewable energy sources like solar and wind power.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Improved battery performance and efficiency.
  • Enhanced energy density and capacity of the battery.
  • Reduced internal resistance and voltage loss.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Increased battery lifespan and cycle stability.
  • Faster charging and discharging capabilities.
  • Higher energy storage capacity in a compact size.
  • Improved overall performance and reliability of secondary batteries.


Original Abstract Submitted

An electrode for a secondary battery includes a current collector; and an active material structure on the current collector, the activate material structure including: at least one first high-density layer, and at least one second high-density layer, the at least one second high-density layer being further away from the current collector as compared to the at least one first high-density layer; and a low-density layer between the at least one first high-density layer and the at least one second high-density layer, wherein a thickness of the at least one second high-density layer is greater than a thickness of the at least one first high-density layer.
