Entropy–Driven Dual–Channel Dissipative Binder for Strain–Responsive Reinforcement and Stable Silicon Anodes (Adv. Funct. Mater. 8/2026)
Abstract
Dissipative Smart Binders This cover depicts a dissipative smart binder acting as an intelligent, self-reinforcing shield for silicon anodes. Its dual-channel mechanism, driven by dynamic Fe2+/Fe3+ coordination and conformational locking, adapts to mechanical stress. This entropy-driven system dissipates energy and stiffens on demand, effectively preventing structural failure and ensuring the long-term stability of high-capacity batteries.
