在本研究中，我們成功以鹼催化將市售聚丙烯酸高分子為主要鏈段加以進行改質並導入兩種帶有不同官能基的短鏈段分子與其比較之，本實驗探討這三種高分子在鋰電池中扮演黏著劑之角色並觀察在應用在矽負極材料上的表現。透過一系列的合成與鑑定分析如: FTIR，DSC，TGA，SEM，TEM，EDS mapping分析，我們成功發現三種不同黏著劑之電化學表現。透過FTIR實驗，可以證明經過反應交聯後黏著劑中的環氧基訊號已經不存在，加上在主鏈段可發現的C=O 雙鍵有位移至更高的波長，如文獻所示，這種現象符合改質後的性質表現。在熱穩定度測試中，由此可發現5% EO，5% DGEBA 的熱裂解溫度為197.1度及183.0度，相對上跟市售聚丙酸高分子有差異,但是並不會影響後續的實驗操作。透過SEM電子掃描及TEM測試，可以證明實驗中的矽負極材料的尺寸皆控制在400-800奈米之間。在同個倍率下我們觀察並比較三種不同高分子黏著劑呈現出來的表面型態，可以發現在經過兩百圈充放電後，未改質過的黏著劑生成一層明顯看不到矽材料推斷為較厚且不均勻的SEI層，這也驗證後續在電化學上面的表現。一系列的電化學測試用以比較三種不同黏著劑之表現，在不同速率充放電測試中，以3000毫安每克的電流速率,可以看到經過改質後的黏著劑都有較好的電容量並換算出電容維持率個別比較也有優越的表現。基於矽材料在電容量上有很好的表現但是因劇烈的體積膨脹也導致業界應用上的難度，因此，循環壽命從放電測試的表現為本實驗中的主要關鍵。經過以600毫安每克的電流數據顯示，兩百圈後的5% EO及5% DGEBA電容量維持率為26.2 及 28.4% 相較於市售聚丙烯酸高分子黏著劑已降低至9 % 。綜合以上實驗可以斷定在經過改質後的黏著劑有相較好的表現，也驗證本實驗的價值主張。

In this novel, we modified two different binders used as binder for Si anode electrode through acid-epoxy reaction based on commercial PAA. Characterization and synthesis proved by FTIR, DSC, TGA, SEM, TEM, EDS Mapping technique below, comparison shown the superior performance and advantages among unmodified binders. Data shown on FTIR, new modified binders successfully developed with disappearance of epoxy signal attributed by cross-linkers, and base polymer PAA C=O signal shifted to higher wavenumber. On thermal stability test, 5% EO and 5% DGEBA binders remained 197.1o C & 183.0o C on temperature degradation (Td).By scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and EDS mapping technique, the Si particles size were confirmed controlled with average size of 400-800nm, we found out our modified binders maintained a better morphology condition compared to blank PAA, a thin and SEI layer and high loading of Si particles proved after 200 deep cycle, this is a good agreement evidence that can work in concert with cyclic stability test below. The electrochemical performances of modified binders-5%EO and 5%DGEBA modified binders are investigated and compared with commercial blank PAA binders. In rate capability test shown, at higher rate (3000mA/g) current, our polymers perform a better capacity and retention. On the other hand, after 200 cycled charge-discharge process, modified binders left 26.2 and 28.4 % retention compare with blank PAA only left 9% are one of the obvious role to assume the value proposition of this experiment.
