The macroscopic creep properties of negative electrodes in lithium-ion batteries and their estimation methods have been investigated based on the microscopic structure of the electrode. Tensile and creep tests were conducted on a negative electrode consisting of carbon powder and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder. The stress-strain curve, the time history of the tensile strain, and the creep rupture time were measured in these tests and estimated using the simple model proposed in this study. The proposed model approximates the alignment of carbon particles as body-centered cubic (bcc) or face-centered cubic (fcc). The external load on the model was supported by a PVDF binder located between carbon particles. The test results showed that PVDF binder mechanical properties affect the macroscopic mechanical properties of the negative electrode, including the creep properties. The stress-strain curve and time history of the tensile strain were located between the upper and lower limits of the proposed model. The tensile strength and creep rupture time agree with the lower limit of the proposed model.

Porous metals, which include small pores inside metals, are promising materials due to their material and structural characteristics. Although they generally exhibit low strength because the pores behave as defects, porous metals are expected to achieve high specific strength due to their ultra-lightweight characteristic. This paper deals with a feasibility study on the fabrication of porous steels for developing unique metals with a high specific strength. Porous steels were fabricated via powder metallurgy-based space holder technique. Alloy tool steel, SKD11, and sodium chloride, NaCl, were used as a scaffold metal and spacer material, respectively. Mixed powders of SKD11 and NaCl were sintered via the spark plasma sintering technique. Each sintered compact was re-heated in an argon atmosphere to remove NaCl and densify the scaffold in the compact. Then, each compact was quenched and tempered. As a result, open-cell porous steels with porosities of 60% and 70% were successfully fabricated. The heat treatment refined the microstructure of the scaffold without changing the pore shape, porosity, etc., improving their strength property, irrespective of their porosity. Furthermore, the specific proof strength of heat-treated porous steels was comparable to that of dense pure aluminum.
