"3D-printed hierarchical porous and multidimensional conductive network" by Cankun Gao, Xiaoling Cui et al.
Designing ultrathick and hierarchical electrodes is effective to deal with the challenge of high areal capacity and high power density for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) manufacturing. Here, a thick electrode with hierarchical porous and multidimensional conductive network is fabricated by 3D printing technology, in which both the conducting polymer of poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene):polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT:PSS) and graphene oxide (GO) play the dual roles as binders and conductive agents. As a consequence, the 3D-printed thick electrode (∼900 μm) with a mass loading of ∼47 mg/cm2 exh...
