The research on the key flexible materials for flexible batteries is summarized as follows. Carbon-based materials are one of the important materials for the construction of flexible current collectors and pole pieces.
At present, research on flexible batteries mostly focuses on the development of materials for individual cells. The design of flexible battery packs can significantly enhance battery energy density and durability.
Packaging materials should be to be thin, lightweight, and soft. Since all components of flexible batteries are flexible, the packing coating should be flexible at the same level. Commonly, Al foil is used between plastic and flexible batteries to prevent air and moisture, but it is not flexible and thick, which limits energy density.
However, the development of flexible batteries is largely focused on advanced electrodes or electrolytes, and little attention is paid to the structural design. In this perspective, we highlight the structural design strategies and corresponding requirements of flexible batteries for typical flexible electronic devices.
