It also provides a mechanical support for electrode material and in some cases enables effective film formation of electrode material. The physical and chemical properties of the current collector as well as potential window can influence the performance of the electrode. This current collector is formed from the Graphite coated metal foil. It is compatible with most of inorganic and organic thin coatings. A preferable thickness of the electrode coating is between 100 nm up to tens of micrometers. This current collector is made of Stainless Steel 316L which is known as an electrochemical grade and as such it is resistant to corrosion in most mild and weak acids and alkali electrolytes, and most organic solvents. One known exception is highly oxidizing nitric acid to which 316L grade is less resistant.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplication note:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGenerally, the electrode is fabricated by applying coating slurry or an ink onto a current collector via wet deposition techniques such as: dip-coating, stencil printing, bar coating, brushing, etc. The coating solution typically contains an organic solvent (or water), active material, conducting nanoparticles, binder and other additives that promote adhesion and wettability (film forming).
