Binder and preparation method thereof, separator, electrode assembly, battery cell, battery, and electric apparatus

Abstract

This application relates to the field of battery technologies, and in particular, to a binder and a preparation method thereof, and a separator, electrode assembly, battery cell, battery, and electric apparatus containing such binder. The binder includes a core layer structure and a shell layer structure provided on surface of the core layer structure, where the core layer structure includes a polyvinylidene fluoride polymer, and the shell layer structure includes a polyacrylate polymer. Polyvinylidene fluoride is a homopolymer with a crystallinity of about 50%, resulting in insufficient adhesion force. Therefore, in this application, the polyacrylate polymer is used to encapsulate the polyvinylidene fluoride polymer to obtain a core-shell-structured binder, so that the crystallinity of the polyvinylidene fluoride polymer in the core-shell-structured binder is improved, and adhesion performance of the core-shell-structured binder is improved, thereby increasing adhesion force between a separator and an electrode plate via the binder.
