The difference in processing technology and raw materials will determine the final product. graphite powder Natural graphite is separated from artificial graphite. Graphite is an excellent choice for anode materials in lithium-ion batteries because of its low lithium cost and high efficiency.

Analyse of natural graphite

Natural graphite generally uses natural flake and modified natural graphite to produce spherical, crystalline graphite. Natural graphite has many disadvantages, even though it is widely used.
Natural graphite exhibits many defects on the surface, large surface areas and low efficiency.

PC-based electrolytes can cause serious problems such as solvated lithium Ion co-embedding. This leads to graphite peeling and expansion, and ultimately, battery failure.

The anisotropy of natural graphite means that lithium ion is difficult to embed from the end faces. It also makes it easy for lithium ions to be precipitated. A lot of artificial graphite uses dense petroleum coke (or needle coke) as its precursors. However, this avoids some of the defects found in natural graphite.

Modifications to natural graphite

Different surfactants were applied to the graphite to fix its surface imperfections and toler electrolyte well.

To improve magnification of natural graphite, the first step is to modify the pore structure. After etching with strong alkali (KOH), the solution in an aqueous solution has been applied to the graphite.

You can also use strong oxidant solution to passivate surface active potential. This will increase natural graphite’s efficiency.

Third, fluorinate natural graphite by using ClF3. Effectively, the cycle life and charge/discharge ratio are improved.

The amorphous graphite can also be coated to form “coreshell” structures. The carbon source for amorphous Carbon is typically pitch, phenolic or other low-temperaturepyrolytic carbon materials. Because of the long distance between carbon layers, the presence of a carbon coating can reduce interfacial impedance and isolate electrolyte from the particles. Enhance the intercalation or diffusion of lithiumion.

To solve the anisotropy problem in natural graphite, mechanical treatments are often employed to shape the particles. An air flow shaping device uses wind to create a rub between the particles and to cut their corners. The method doesn’t introduce any doping impurities. It has high efficiency and will result in the pulverization a large amount of particles with low yield.

Mechanical fusion machines use the material to spin at high speeds in a rotor. The material clings on to the wall with the help of centrifugal force and then passes between the stator extrusionhead and the rotor at high velocity. This is when the material will be subject to extrusion force and shear pressure. To achieve the goal of spheroidization, the surface is subject to the friction between particles and other particles.

Natural graphite’s particle sizes are reduced to 15-20 mm after the spheroidization process. The first efficiency and performance of the cycles is clearly improved. Magnification performances can also be greatly enhanced.

Modifications to Artificial Graphite

Modifications of artificial graphite. The modification process of artificial graphite has a different structure than that of natural graphite. The organization of particles can reduce graphite’s OI value (position degree) generally. A needle coke precursor of diameter 8-10 m.m.m is typically selected. The carbon source for the binder is easily graphitized materials like asphalt. A number of needle coke particles can be bonded using drum furnace treatment. The secondary particles, with a size of 14-18mm, are used for graphitization. This will reduce the Oi values of the material.
