Abstract: A bipolar electrode for use in a lithium-ion battery includes a current collector, an anode having high aspect ratio conductive carbon particles and an anode binder, and a cathode having cathode active particles in a cathode binder. The high aspect ratio conductive carbon particles in the anode are aligned so that a long axis of the high aspect ratio conductive carbon particles is substantially perpendicular to the current collector. The cathode active particles are paramagnetic, diamagnetic, or magnetic and have been magnetically aligned, the cathode further comprises high aspect ratio conductive particles aligned so that a long axis of the high aspect ratio conductive particles is substantially perpendicular to the current collector, or both. The bipolar electrode can be made by subjecting the current collector coated with slurries including the components for the anode and the cathode to a magnetic field while drying.

Abstract: An electrochemical battery cell may include an electrode assembly, a liquid electrolyte, a metallic battery enclosure or “can,” and a liquid solution. The electrode assembly and the electrolyte solution may be disposed within the battery can. The liquid solution may be disposed between the electrode assembly and the battery can. The liquid solution may include an organic solvent, a cross-linkable polymer and a cross-linking agent which may be converted into a conductive layer by reacting the cross-linkable polymer and the cross-linking agent of the liquid solution to form a reaction product. The liquid solution may include an ion conducting salt. The reaction product may be a polymer matrix and the organic solvent and/or the ion conducting salt may be contained within the polymer matrix. Reacting the cross-linkable polymer and the cross-linking agent may include applying heat to the liquid solution to convert the liquid solution into the reaction product.
