A method for producing a multi-layer coating on a substrate for an anode or cathode includes preparing a first mixture including a first solvent and a first active material, preparing a second mixture including a second solvent and a second active material, combining the first mixture and the second mixture to form a slurry, and coating the substrate with the slurry. The first solvent and the second solvent are immiscible.

Multi-layer coating using immiscible solvent slurries

A method for forming one or more layers of a lithium-ion battery includes a step of sequentially depositing a wet coating and a free-standing material layer onto a moving substrate to form a first bilayer on the substrate. The first bilayer including a wet coating-derived layer and the free-standing material layer. The first bilayer is heat roll pressed to form a second bilayer in which the wet coating-derived layer is at least partially dried and adhered to the free-standing material layer.
