摘要

The dry-process is a sustainable and promising fabrication method for all-solid-state batteries by eliminating solvents. However, a pragmatic fabrication design for thin and robust solid-state electrolyte (SSE) layers has not been established. Herein, we report a dry-process approach that enhances mechanical stability of SSE layers from film fabrication to cell operation. By co-rolling thick SSE and positive electrode feeds, a uniform, thin SSE layer (50 µm) and a high loading positive electrode layer (5 mAh cm−2) with high active material ratio (80 wt%) are simultaneously achieved. This SSE-positive electrode integrated film exhibits enhanced physical properties and cyclability (> 80% retention after 500 cycles) at low stack pressure (2 MPa) compared to the freestanding counterparts, attributed to reinforced and intimate SSE-positive electrode interface constructed during co-rolling process. Additionally, an all-solid-state pouch cell with high stack-level specific energy (310 Wh kg−1) and energy density (805 Wh L−1) operating at 30 °C and 5 MPa is demonstrated.
