Because of these properties, graphene has shown great potential as a material for use in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). One of its main advantages is its excellent electrical conductivity; graphene can be used as a conductive agent of electrode materials to improve the rate and cycle performance of batteries.
Graphene is an essential component of Nanotech Energy batteries. We take advantage of its qualities to improve the performance of standard lithium-ion batteries. In comparison to copper, it’s up to 70% more conductive at room temperature, which allows for efficient electron transfer during operation of the battery.
In conclusion, the application of graphene in lithium-ion batteries has shown significant potential in improving battery performance. Graphene’s exceptional electrical conductivity, high specific surface area, and excellent mechanical properties make it an ideal candidate for enhancing the capabilities of these batteries.
However, they suffer from long recharge times (typically hours), whereas battery users are looking for a battery that recharges in minutes or even seconds. The use of graphene allows faster electron and ion transport in the electrodes, which controls the speed over which the battery can be charged and discharged.
However, in most cases, large amounts of graphene (10–20% w/w) are normally used in these hybrid electrodes. It should be noted that too much graphene does not help because of its low packing density, which can reduce the energy density of the battery.
Graphene has now enabled the development of faster and more powerful batteries and supercapacitors. In this Review, we discuss the current status of graphene in energy storage, highlight ongoing research activities and present some solutions for existing challenges.
