Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a method of making carbon nanotube supported self-standing electrodes embedded in a polymer based battery packaging material. The present disclosure further relates to a method of continuously making carbon nanotube supported self-standing electrodes embedded in a polymer based battery packaging material. The resulting self-standing electrodes may be used in a wearable and flexible battery.
Claims32
A method of making an embedded electrode, the method comprising:
- providing a bed of polymer particles that extends from a first side to a second side;
- depositing a mixture on the first side of the bed of polymer particles to form a self-standing electrode, wherein the mixture comprises:
- (a) nanotubes and/or nanofibers, and
- (b) an active electrode material, and
- treating at least a portion of the polymer particles to form a flexible solid body, wherein a portion of the self-standing electrode is embedded in the flexible solid body to form an embedded electrode.

A continuous method of making an embedded electrode, the method comprising:
- continuously providing a bed of polymer particles that extends from a first side to a second side;
- continuously depositing a mixture on the first side of the bed of polymer particles to form a self-standing electrode, wherein the mixture comprises:
- (a) nanotubes and/or nanofibers, and
- (b) an active electrode material, and
- continuously treating at least a portion of the polymer particles to form a flexible solid body, wherein a portion of the self-standing electrode is embedded in the flexible solid body to continuously form an embedded electrode.
