Interface Evolution and Long-Term Performance of Negative Carbon Fiber Structural Electrodes.

ABSTRACT: Laminated structural batteries present a transformative solution to reducing weight constraints in electric vehicles. These structural batteries are based on a multifunctional material that incorporates an energy storage function within a carbon fiber-reinforced polymer. Despite the potential of this technology, the intricate morphology of fiber-matrix or electrode-electrolyte interfaces and the impact of long-term cycling at low current rates (C-rates) on these interfaces remain insufficiently understood. This study addresses these critical knowledge gaps by examining the influence of matrix composition on the long-term electrochemical performance of structural battery electrodes and exploring advanced techniques to investigate carbon fiber-matrix interfaces.
