Natural Conductive Graphite Powders Used in Batteries

Spec: 40-50nm, 80-100nm, 99.95%, flake powder, we could also supply micron size graphite powder ,welcome to inquiry.

Application for conductive graphite powders:

1. The use of graphite in batteries has been increasing in the last 30 years. Natural and synthetic graphite are used to construct the anode of all major battery technologies.The lithium-ion battery utilizes roughly twice the amount of graphite than lithium carbonate.

2. The demand for batteries, primarily nickel-metal-hydride and lithium-ion batteries, has caused a growth in graphite demand in the late 1980s and early 1990s. This growth was driven by portable electronics, such as portable CD players and power tools. Laptops, mobile phones, tablet, and smartphone products have increased the demand for batteries. Electric vehicle batteries are anticipated to increase graphite demand. 

Other applications:

1.Graphite is an electric conductor, consequently, useful in such applications as arc lamp electrodes. It can conduct electricity due to the vast electron delocalization within the carbon layers.The conductive properties of powdered graphite allows its use as pressure sensor in carbon microphones.

2. Graphite and graphite powder are valued in industrial applications for their self-lubricating and dry lubricating properties. There is a common belief that graphite's lubricating properties are solely due to the loose interlamellar coupling between sheets in the structure.
