  • Publication number: 20210104746
    Abstract: A rechargeable battery cell includes an electrode and an ion exchange material arranged to define an interpenetrating interface with at least a portion of the electrode. Providing an interpenetration interface in intimate contact can include completely or partially embedding the electrode in the ion exchange material, or alternatively, surrounding the electrode or discrete portions of the electrode with a thin film of ion exchange material. In one embodiment, electrodes can be particles fully or partially embedded, coated with, or partially contacting ion exchange material.
