Silicon nano technology reforming graphite cathode lithium batteries
Cathode technology of the existing lithium batteries has reached the limit. In order to meet the needs of a new generation of energy, the development of new cathode technology of lithium batteries is imminent. Silicon cathode, with the ultra-high specific capacity and rich reserves, has become one of the most representative new technology.
Compared to the traditional graphite cathode, a major obstacle to the Silicon cathode technology on the road of industrialization is that low gel content cause unsatisfactory effect of electrode mixing.
On account of this, some researchers integrated graphite cathode technology and Silicon nano technology and have developed a new and can be mass-produced C- nano Si- graphite composite cathode materials. During the lithiation process, Si nanoshells can be expanded as the volume change. No matter nano-Si hollow shell in the graphite , or a nano-Si intermediate layer between the graphite and carbon, it can keep the shape intact and not be broken or left over between Si and graphite. This special structure, on the one hand to ensure compatibility between the Si and natural graphite, on the other hand avoid the severe side effects caused by traditional mechanical mixing graphite powder and residual Silicon particles.
Silicon Nano Powder is generally immediately available here with particle size 30-50nm,100-200nm,300-500nm,1um. Chinese Hongwu International Group LTD with HW NANO brand can produce most materials in high purity forms and ultrafine particle size. We can also produce materials to custom specifications by request, in addition to custom compositions for commercial and research applications and new proprietary technologies. Typical and custom packaging is available, can provide related data including SEM,TEM,COA,MSDS.
