Simulations were performed within the voltage range of 2.6 -4.2 V vs. Li + /Li for different C-rates for each degree of calendering. The key findings from the analysis of the simulated discharge curves presented in Figure are as follows. Firstly, the model accurately captures the loss of specific capacity while increasing the C-rate, i.e. the capacity drops from 188.28 mAh.g -1 at C/50 to 62.8 mAh.g -1 at C/5 for the Cal20% case. Furthermore, the specific capacity at a given C-rate is higher for the 35 % case than the 20 % and 0 % ones. This trend is similar to the one found for LIB cathodes by Liu et al. , who demonstrated through modeling that increased calendering reduces interfacial resistance between the CC and CBD, enhancing electronic conductivity and thus leading to better overall cell performance. Another trend arising from Figure is the difference of specific capacity between the calendering degrees cases tends to shrink by decreasing the C-rates. At low C-rates, the difference between the three cases is minor (Figure ). However, at high currents, the effect is relatively prominent (Figure ). This observation can be explained by the transition from a kinetically-limited regime at high C-rates to a thermodynamically-dominated regime at lower C-rates, which is a phenomenon well known in Li ASSBs cells and also, reported by our group in LIBs modeling . At high C-rates, kinetic factors, such as charge transport limitations, limited active surface area and polarization effects, dominate the electrochemical
