Different electrolytes (water-in-salt, polymer based, ionic liquid based) improve efficiency of lithium ion batteries. Among all other electrolytes, gel polymer electrolyte has high stability and conductivity. Lithium-ion battery technology is viable due to its high energy density and cyclic abilities.
Separator is not needed when solid state electrolytes are used, as in the case of solid-state Li-ion batteries or commercial high-temperature sodium nickel or sodium sulfur batteries. When electrons move from anodes to cathodes—for instance, to move a vehicle or power a phone to make a call—the chemical energy stored is transformed into electrical
Currently, the main drivers for developing Li-ion batteries for efficient energy applications include energy density, cost, calendar life, and safety. The high energy/capacity anodes and cathodes needed for these applications are hindered by challenges like: (1) aging and degradation; (2) improved safety; (3) material costs, and (4) recyclability.
Lithium-ion batteries use lithium ions to create an electrical potential between the positive and negative sides of the battery, known as the electrodes. A thin layer of insulating material called a "separator" sits between the two electrodes and allows the lithium ions to pass through while blocking the electrons.

Engineers have developed a readily scalable method to optimize a silicon anode priming method that increases lithium-ion battery performance by22% to 44%. Silicon anode batteries have the potential to revolutionize energy storage capabilities, which is key to meeting climate goals and unlocking the full potential of electric vehicles.
Lithium, a key component of modern battery technology, serves as the electrolyte's core, facilitating the smooth flow of ions between the anode and cathode. Its lightweight nature, combined with exceptional electrochemical characteristics, makes it indispensable for achieving high energy density (Nzereogu et al., 2022).
In summary, the use of a primer layer can reduce the inactive components of the electrode such as binders and conductive additives while maintaining the same mechanical strength of the electrode. This leads to better capacities at high C rates of 2C and 3C as well as significantly lower aging at 2C/3C CCCV.
Several works have already addressed the properties of primers in battery electrodes. Doberdo et al. showed that a carbon coating protects the aluminum current collector foil from corrosion by using an aqueous binder system for lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxides (NMC) cathodes.
