Lithium Battery Copper Foil serves as a critical component in the construction of lithium-ion batteries. In these batteries, copper foil acts as the current collector for the negative electrode (anode).

Characteristics of Copper Foil:

Thickness: Copper foil used in lithium-ion batteries very thin, typically ranging from 5 to 100 micrometers thick. Thinner foils can increase the energy density of the battery may also be more prone to mechanical damage.

Purity: High purity copper is used to minimize resistance and ensure efficient conduction of electricity.

Crimpability: The foil must be able to be crimped or folded without cracking, as it is usually attached to the tab that connects the electrode to the battery terminal.

Surface Finish: The surface finish of the copper foil is important for the adhesion of the anode material. It may be treated to improve the bonding with the active material.

Tensile Strength and Elongation: These properties are important to ensure that the foil can withstand the stresses encountered during battery manufacturing and operation.
