Silicon is the most promising electrode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries

The U.S. and its allies plan to impose sanctions on more Russian industries and supply chains.

The US government representatives recently visited Europe to consult with allies on strengthening and enforcing sanctions to punish Russia. They also plan to take action to disrupt their critical supply chains.

The US government claims that the sanctions imposed on Russia since the invasion began on February 24 have proved extremely effective, plunging Russia into a financial crisis. The sanctions include a freeze on the Russian central bank's foreign exchange assets, a ban on hard currency transactions by major Russian banks and wealthy individuals, and export restrictions on advanced semiconductors and other technologies. The sanctions have weakened the Russian economy and left the Kremlin with fewer resources.

The volatile international political situations will continue to affect the markets and prices of many commodities like the Nano silicon anode material silicon powder.


Overview of nano silicon anode material silicon powder

Silicon is the most promising electrode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries, with a specific capacity (3600 mAh/g) about 10 times higher than graphite (372 mAh/g). However, due to the significant expansion (over 300%) of the material under load (lithiation) and the instability of the solid electrolyte interface layer (SEI), its use is severely restricted. The poor mechanical stability and chemical passivation performance of silicon electrodes make the cycle performance of silicon electrodes far unable to meet the requirements of battery systems, and a lot of research and suggestions have been stimulated to circumvent these limitations.

During the lithium insertion process, the volume of silicon changes so much (about 400%) that the silicon cracks and falls off the collector, causing the prototype lithium-silicon battery to lose most of its capacity in less than 10 charge and discharge cycles. The key to the success of large-capacity lithium-ion batteries is to solve the capacity and stability problems of lithium-ion silicon.

Silicon anode materials have shown great potential in improving the efficiency and energy storage capacity of lithium-ion batteries. Until recently, their main disadvantage was surface passivation through oxidation, a process that increases impedance and reduces anode circularity. Our high-purity silicon anode materials can achieve high specific capacity without significantly affecting cycle life.

Nano silicon anode material silicon powder application

Silicon is the most promising anode material in the next generation of lithium-ion batteries. Nano silicon anode materials are used in cylindrical, flexible and aluminum shell batteries. Our silicon anode powder can be dispersed in the battery solvent while preventing agglomeration. They are designed to bond seamlessly with other battery materials and produce uniform and stable coatings. Therefore, they are suitable for a range of applications, including lithium-ion batteries, photovoltaics, semiconductors, and electronics.
