Highly Adhesive and Ionic Conductive Aqueous Carboxymethyl Cellulose Binder via Direct Sulfate-Ester Functionalization for Durable Graphite Anodes

Abstract Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is a promising aqueous binder for graphite anodes, but its limited adhesion, poor Li+ transport, and interfacial instability hinder long-term performance. Herein, CMC was functionalized with lithium sulfate ester groups to obtain a mu...
