Advantages of using PTFE as a binder

1)High chemical stability: PTFE has excellent chemical resistance, which extends battery life and maintains performance over time, even in environments exposed to corrosive electrolytes
2)High thermal stability: PTFE has superior thermal stability compared to PVDF and can maintain stable battery performance under high temperature conditions.
