Graphite is a naturally occurring form of carbon composed of carbon atom layers stacked on top of each other. These layers are loosely bonded, allowing them to slide past one another and giving ...
Researchers have found a way to prevent lithium plating in electric vehicle batteries, which could lead to faster charging times. According to the new study, lithium plating can be significantly ...
Regardless of the cathode chemistry, be it LFP or NCM-based, the majority of commercial batteries rely on graphite as their primary anode material. Battery-grade graphite can be sourced either ...
The outlook for the graphite market is promising due to its usage in the battery industry and energy storage applications, as well as steel-making. With China dominating the natural graphite market, ...
Researchers in the National Graphene Institute (NGI) at The University of Manchester have revisited one of the most ancient materials on Earth – graphite, and discovered new physics that has eluded ...
