Application of a novel graphene oxide scaffold in solid-state batteries
The transition from traditional lithium-ion batteries to solid-state batteries is a response to the need for safer, higher energy-density storage solutions. Solid-state batteries, which uses solid polymer electrolytes, address the limitations of flammable liquid electrolytes found in current batteries, highlighting their potential to enhance safety and energy storage capabilities.
This work focuses on the incorporation of a novel graphene oxide nano-scaffold as a promising filler in solid polymer electrolytes with the use of PVDF-HFP copolymer for its mechanical properties and electrochemical stability. It aims to achieve a solid polymer electrolyte with high ionic mobility and conductivity.
