Abstract: 

It is shown that the composition and the quality of the binder for the electrodes of lithium iron phosphate battery significantly affect its performance and cycle life. The data presented confirm that the LA132-type aqueous binder compositions can be used in the production of lithium iron phosphate batteries. It has been established that the use of nanotubes and an aqueous binder in the production of graphite anodes and lithium iron phosphate cathodes improves stability, service life, and specific performance of lithium-ion batteries. Moreover, the cost of battery production decreases compared to traditional binder compositions.

Key words:
