Binder staining one

Caption

Nanoscopic carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) layers and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) agglomerates on graphite particles detected with energy-selective backscattered electron (EsB) imaging in a lab-made Li-ion anode after bromination. The difference in stability between brominated SBR and brominated CMC during electron imaging allows to distinguish both binders individually in the EsB image. The EsB image has been coloured for easier distinction of different binder phases. Credit: Stanislaw Zankowski.
