Abstract The pursuit of high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries demands high-silicon silicon-graphite composite negative electrodes, yet their commercialization remains hindered by interfacial incompatibility and mechanical instability. While an ideal binder must simultaneously achieve robust adhesion to both silicon and graphite, accommodate substantial silicon volume changes, and maintain high binder bulk stability, existing systems fail to harmonize these requirements.

1 Introduction Skeletal muscle, the largest organ in mammals, plays a pivotal role in movement, respiration and systemic metabolic regulation [1]. Beyond its mechanical functions, skeletal muscle coordinates multi-organ physiology through intricate intercellular communication networks [2].

Crosslinked ion-conducting hybrid coating layers for robust artificial solid-electrolyte interphase towards high-performance silicon anodes† High-capacity silicon (Si)-based anodes have been recognized as particularly promising candidates for high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries (LIBs).
