Description
Ki Yun Kim and co-authors review polymer coatings for silicon anode batteries in this 2025 paper. Silicon stores far more lithium than graphite, but it swells badly each cycle. Swelling cracks particles, breaks electrical paths, and destabilizes the surface layer. Polymers can cushion that motion while keeping charge paths open.
Three design families organize the review. Dopamine inspired coatings improve sticking and surface chemistry. Self healing three dimensional binders absorb stress and repair damage. Conductive polymers act as binder, additive, and artificial surface layer at once. Performance is judged on first capacity, efficiency, and long cycle life. The closing section lists what an ideal polymer must do in a real cell. Coatings may decide whether silicon anodes ship widely.
