To predict the cyclic stability of secondary battery electrodes, the mechanical behaviors of polymer binders and conductive composites (BCC) is of great significance. In terms of uniaxial tension, tensile stress relaxation, and bonding strength tests, the present study encompasses a systematic investigation of the mechanical properties of two typical aqueous binders with different contents of Super-S carbon black (SS) under a liquid electrolyte. Meanwhile, the microstructure of cured film and the surface morphology of the bonding interface are investigated in detail. When the weight ratio of SS increases from 0% to 50%, the cured BCC films manifest a higher ratio of tensile strength to modulus and a shorter characteristic relaxation time. Moreover, suitable loadings of SS can improve the tensile shear strength and remarkably reduce the percentage of interface failure of aqueous polymer-bonded Cu current collector. Nevertheless, an excess of carbon black amount cannot maintain its enhancing effect and can even impair the adhesive layer. Finally, a sodium alginate-based polymer composite holds much more superior mechanical properties than the mixture of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and styrene-butadiene rubber at the same content of carbon black. Noticeably, the two kinds of aqueous polymer doped by 50 wt % of SS exhibit the best adhesive properties.
