And as the capacity of graphite electrode will approach its theoretical upper limit, the research scope of developing suitable negative electrode materials for next-generation of low-cost, fast-charging, high energy density lithium-ion batteries is expected to continue to expand in the coming years.
Graphite is the most commercially successful anode material for lithium (Li)-ion batteries: its low cost, low toxicity, and high abundance make it ideally suited for use in batteries for electronic devices, electrified transportation, and grid-based storage.
Storage Capability: Graphite’s layered structure allows lithium batteries to intercalate (slide between layers). This means that lithium ions from the battery’s cathode move to the graphite anode and nestle between its layers when the battery charges. During discharge, these ions move back to the cathode, releasing energy in the process.
Fig. 1. History and development of graphite negative electrode materials. With the wide application of graphite as an anode material, its capacity has approached theoretical value. The inherent low-capacity problem of graphite necessitates the need for higher-capacity alternatives to meet the market demand.
Although we call them lithium-ion batteries, lithium makes up only about 2% of the total volume of the battery cell. There is as much as 10-20 times as much graphite in a lithium-ion battery. The anode is made up of powdered graphite that is spread, along with a binder, on a thin aluminum charge collector.
Graphite for batteries currently accounts to only 5 percent of the global demand. Graphite comes in two forms: natural graphite from mines and synthetic graphite from petroleum coke. Both types are used for Li-ion anode material with 55 percent gravitating towards synthetic and the balance to natural graphite.
