As a result, the active material is separated from the electrode, And the battery life is reduced.

In order to prevent this phenomenon, efforts have been made to improve the stability of the electrode and the performance of the battery by reducing the size of the active material to a nano size or deforming the shape of the active material and increasing the adhesive strength of the binder and suppressing the volume expansion with a binder ought.
