Publication number: 20230343939Abstract: Battery electrode compositions are provided comprising core-shell composites. Each of the composites may comprise, for example, an active material, a collapsible core, and a shell. The active material may be provided to store and release metal ions during battery operation, whereby the storing and releasing of the metal ions causes a substantial change in volume of the active material. The collapsible core may be disposed in combination with the active material to accommodate the changes in volume. The shell may at least partially encase the active material and the core, the shell being formed from a material that is substantially permeable to the metal ions stored and released by the active material.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 28, 2023Publication date: October 26, 2023Inventors: Gleb Nikolayevich YUSHIN, Bogdan ZDYRKO, Alexander Thomas JACOBS, Eerik Torm HANTSOO, Addison Newcomb SHELTON, Eugene Michael BERDICHEVSKY

Patent number: 10374221Abstract: A battery electrode composition is provided comprising composite particles, with each composite particle comprising active material and a scaffolding matrix. The active material is provided to store and release ions during battery operation. For certain active materials of interest, the storing and releasing of the ions causes a substantial change in volume of the active material. The scaffolding matrix is provided as a porous, electrically-conductive scaffolding matrix within which the active material is disposed. In this way, the scaffolding matrix structurally supports the active material, electrically interconnects the active material, and accommodates the changes in volume of the active material.Type: GrantFiled: August 22, 2013Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: Sila Nanotechnologies, Inc.Inventors: Gleb Nikolayevich Yushin, Bogdan Zdyrko, Addison Newcomb Shelton, Eugene Michael Berdichevsky, Igor Luzinov, Alexander Thomas Jacobs, Eerik Torm Hantsoo, George Pius Gomes
