Lithium-Ion Battery

Li-ion battery is recognized as the most competitive and attractive secondary battery in the world. The global trend of vehicle electrification demands lithium-ion batteries to deliver high performance, safety and reliability.

At the forefront of innovation, we are driving the energy revolution with our cutting-edge products for lithium-ion batteries.

How Carbon Black Enhances Lithium-Ion Battery Performance

High energy storage

Maximized cell capacity for long-lasting power.

Improved Battery Life Cycle

Supports more charge/discharge cycles without capacity loss.

Improved safety

Enhances thermal stability and reduces risk of overheating.

Stable performance

Ensures consistent output across temperature ranges and usage conditions.

Key carbon black requirements

Conventional graphite anodes have a theoretical capacity of only ~372 mAh/g, which restricts how much energy a cell can store. This limits driving range in EVs and runtime in portable devices.

Traditional Graphite Anode

SiOx + Soft Carbon anode

Conventional graphite anodes have a theoretical capacity of only ~372 mAh/g, which restricts how much energy a cell can store. This limits driving range in EVs and runtime in portable devices.

With ~480 mAh/g, the SiOx-composite & Soft Carbon in Modern Li-ion batteries significantly increases the anode capacity.
