  • COMPOSITE ANODE FROM SILICON KERF
    Publication number: 20130309563
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a composite anode for a lithium rechargeable battery comprising silicon particles from kerf. Said silicon particles are mixed with carbonaceous materials, other anode active materials and a polymer binder, and formed into a lithium insertion anode for a lithium rechargeable battery. The battery featuring such an anode exhibits superior electrochemical performance, an exceptionally high specific capacity, an excellent reversible capacity, and a long cycle life.
    Type: Application

    Inventors: WANLI XU, YURI SOLOMENTSEV, JOHN T. FUSSELL
  • METHOD TO PREPARE SILICON PARTICLES FOR USE IN LITHIUM SECONDARY BATTERY ANODES
    Publication number: 20130252097
    Abstract: The disclosure describes a process to fabricate composite anodes for lithium secondary batteries using silicon particles obtained from the byproducts of silicon manufacturing processes. Silicon particles are obtained from the byproducts of solar cell manufacturing or silicon wafer manufacturing steps such as sawing, polishing and deposition processes. Said silicon particles are mechanically resized, mixed with carbonaceous materials and formed into an anode for a lithium secondary battery.
