The current lab production of Solid-State Electrolyte (SSE) for lithium-ion batteries is limited to planar geometries and random porosities. Although SSE has shown improvements, it still faces dendrite propagation issues. Additive manufacturing, known for its rapid prototyping, enables the materials and hierarchies to be modified to mechanically avert dendrite propagation and prevent further degradation of batteries. Finding an ideal patterning configuration to efficiently block the dendrite growth while maintaining a safe, high-energy-density solid-state is our ultimate goal. Therefore, studies will be tailored into bridging the gap between laboratory studies and commercialization via additive manufacturing technologies.
