Amidst the escalating global energy demand and the rapid advancement of renewable energy technologies, battery technology plays an indispensable role in energy storage. As a crucial anode material, Graphite enhances performance with significant economic and environmental benefits.
Graphite’s unique layered structure allows for efficient ion intercalation. This feature improves battery charge and discharge rates, providing quicker recharge times, which benefits user experience, especially in consumer electronics. Graphite boasts a high theoretical energy density, supporting batteries that store more energy in a compact form.
As a crucial anode material, Graphite enhances performance with significant economic and environmental benefits. This review provides an overview of recent advancements in the modification techniques for graphite materials utilized in lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries.
Graphite can be used as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries. With synthetic graphite as an anode material, we make an important contribution to the higher performance of lithium-ion batteries. Our battery felts and bipolar plates in stationary energy storage devices (so-called redox flow batteries) enable efficient charging and discharging.
Graphite has a long history of successful use in conventional lithium-ion batteries. This track record offers confidence in its performance and compatibility within solid-state battery technology, assuring developers and consumers alike. Many companies are already integrating graphite into their solid-state battery designs.
At the beginning of the 21st century, aiming at improving battery energy density and lifespan, new modified graphite materials such as silicon-graphite (Si/G) composites and graphene were explored but limited by cost and stability.
