Abstract

Natural gum derived from the natural surrounding (gum arabic, guar gum, xanthan gum, gellan gum, fenugreek gum, karaya gum, and acacia gum) is one of the most abundant polysaccharides currently present around the world. As natural gum dissolved solution can be very sticky in nature, its role as a binder for both anodes and cathodes in rechargeable batteries have been recently significantly researched. Although much research has been delved into using natural gum as a feasible binder for rechargeable batteries, little investigation so far has taken place to compile, summarize, analyze, and evaluate the current status-quo of the natural gum-based binder research, as well as understanding some of the obstacles and issues that may need to be addressed. This review gives a comprehensive review on the natural gum-based binder that was used for both anode and cathode in rechargeable batteries and how each kind of natural gum improved the electrochemical performance in terms of cycle retention and rate capabilities. Furthermore, more systematic analysis and future projections for the research on natural gum-based binders are presented, which will serve to further the promising research related to utilizing natural gum as an efficient binder for rechargeable battery systems.
