In the field of energy storage that pursues high energy density and safety, silicone rubber, with its unique properties, has become a "revolutionary" in battery technology.

The "Safety Barrier" of Flexible Lithium Metal Batteries

The silicone rubber separator enhances battery safety by suppressing the growth of lithium dendrites:

Data: The silicone rubber separator developed by a certain laboratory extends the battery cycle life to 2,000 times, with a coulombic efficiency of 99.8%.

Innovation: The silicone rubber separator added with ceramic particles remains stable even at 150°C.

The "Efficient Electrode" of Supercapacitors

The composite electrode of silicone rubber and activated carbon improves the energy storage density:

Performance: The specific capacitance reaches 300 F/g, which is 1.5 times that of traditional carbon electrodes, and the charging time is shortened to 30 seconds.

Application: After a certain brand of power tools uses this technology, the battery life is increased by 40%.

The "Low-Cost Solution" for Sodium-Ion Batteries

The silicone rubber binder reduces the cost of electrode preparation:

Case: A certain automobile company cooperates with a material company. The silicone rubber binder reduces the cost of sodium-ion batteries by 25%, and the energy density reaches 150 Wh/kg.

Cyclability: After 5,000 charge-discharge cycles, the capacity retention rate is still 85%.

The "Ion Channel" of Flow Batteries

The silicone rubber membrane is used for ion exchange in vanadium flow batteries:

Efficiency: The ion selective permeability reaches 95%, and the battery energy efficiency is increased to 85%.

Lifetime: The acid corrosion resistance extends the membrane lifetime to 10 years, far exceeding that of traditional proton membranes (3 years).

Conclusion

Silicone rubber, with its "flexibility" and "stability" characteristics, provides safer and more efficient solutions for energy storage. In the future, with the popularization of new energy vehicles and renewable energy, it may become a "key material" for the global energy transition.
