The　gradual　development　of　new　energy　power　lithium　batteries　towards　high　energy　density　has　driven　the　trends　development　of　high　performance,　such　as　ultrathin,　low　profile　and　high　mechanical　properties　of　anode　copper　foil　collectors.　As　one　of　the　key　auxiliary　materials　for　lithium　batteries,　the　quality　and　properties　of　electrolytic　copper　foil　for　lithium　batteries　play　a　key　role　in　battery　performance.　Therefore,　the　precise　regulation　of　performance　and　directional　modification　of　structure　of　the　copper　foil　are　of　great　significance　to　improving　the　performance　of　lithium　batteries.　This　paper　introduces　the　principle　and　process　of　copper　electrodeposition　and　the　current　copper　foil　market　from　the　perspective　of　lithium　battery　copper　foil　electrodeposition　technology,　summaries　the　mechanism　of　the　influence　of　physical,　chemical　and　surface　properties　of　lithium　copper　foil　on　the　electrochemical　performance　of　lithium　batteries,　and　provides　a　reference　for　the　subsequent　precise　regulation　of　copper　foil　performance.　It　also　further　illustrates　two　comprehensive　methods　to　improve　the　performance　of　lithium　copper　foil　and　lithium　battery　performance,　namely　raw　foil　process　parameter　optimization　and　modification　treatment,　and　analyses　the　current　status　and　development　of　copper　foil　structural　modification.　Finally,　this　paper　illustrates　the　problems　of　electrolytic　copper　foil　as　lithium　battery　anode　collectors,　and　looks　forward　to　its　future　development　trends,　which　guides　the　development　and　application　of　high-performance　copper　foil　for　lithium　batteries.　©　2024　Cailiao　Daobaoshe/　Materials　Review.　All　rights　reserved.
