  • Publication number: 20220285692
    Abstract: Described herein are multilayer composite foil materials, as well as methods of making and using multilayer composite foil materials. The composite foil materials can comprise different layers of different metals which may have differing activity toward an active metal, such as lithium. The different layers may allow the composite foil material to include layers that are more active towards the active metal, providing for electrochemical activity, and other layers that are less active towards the active metal, and serving as structural layers. The multilayer composite foils are useful as anodes of electrochemical cells, such as lithium ion cells.
