Graphite powder is soft and flexible, with a Mohs hardness of 1 (talc), but is strong and non-brittle. Graphite powder has good thermal and electrical conductivity, is a refractory and is chemically i
As the world shifts toward electric vehicles, graphite – whether natural from mines or synthetic based on petroleum coke – is becoming increasingly indispensable. As the largest component of lithium-i
expandable graphite mould are mainly used for sealing purposes in the petrochemical, machinery, metallurgy and atomic industries. Compared to traditional sealing materials, expandable graphite is more
It was 2007; Steve Jobs unveiled the iPhone, J. K. Rowling was wrapping up her final Harry Potter book, and the worst financial crisis since the 1930s began to wreak havoc on global economies. It was
A graphite anode is the heart of a lithium-ion battery. Its crystal structure is uniquely suited to hosting Li-ions in order to store energy, a process known as intercalation. While a lot of attention
Graphite is one of the most important components in lithium-ion batteries, serving as both the anode and cathode. It has dominated as an anode since the inception of Lithium-ion batteries, thanks to i
The world’s EV market is on the verge of creating a new demand for graphite, which has long been overlooked in favor of more valuable cathode materials. Each EV battery requires 20-30% graphite, and t
The main advantage of graphite over all other electrode materials is its resistance to thermal shock and its ability to resist corrosion (along with good electrical conductivity). Unlike copper or tun
In every lithium-ion battery (the kind you use in your electric vehicle, smartphone, or portable generator) there is an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte. Lithium ions move between the anode and th
An electrode is a conductor of electricity used to make contact with a nonmetallic part of an electro-chemical cell. Anodes are the positively charged electrodes and cathodes are the negatively charge
A key ingredient in Li-ion batteries for hybrid electric vehicles ("HEVs"), plug in electric vehicles ("PEVs") and grid energy storage systems, graphite anode material has seen a steady increase in de
Anodes and cathodes are two key components of a battery. Anodes are the positive polarity contact point in an electrolytic cell while cathodes are the negative polarity contact points. Graphite is wel
