Design of Battery Electrodes with Dual‐Scale Porosity to Minimize Tortuosity and Maximize Performance

Electrode pore topology can be tuned to improve battery power without sacrificing energy density. One effective design has “dual-scale” porosity, combining aligned channels and a porous matrix. Iterated co-extrusion yields sintered cathodes of this architecture, with channel spacing tunable down to ∼15 μm. Results show that net tortuosity is reduced compared to homogeneous porosity, significantly improving cell-discharge rates.
