A versatile method for grafting polymers onto Li4Ti5O12 particles applicable to lithium-ion batteries
We report a novel and versatile method of grafting polymers onto lithium titanium oxide (LTO) by dispersion-mediated interfacial polymerization. A myriad of polymers can be grafted by this method, and the hybrid-polymer particles are compatible with all kinds of binders used in lithium-ion batteries. This method is capable of producing thin and homogenous polymer films that are useful for battery applications. A coating of poly (styrene) effectively prevents degradation of the cell after float test without affecting performance at high C rates.
