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.
Boosting energy density: Graphene possesses an astonishingly high surface area and excellent electrical conductivity. By incorporating graphene into the electrodes of Li-ion batteries, we can create myriad pathways for lithium ions to intercalate, increasing the battery's energy storage capacity.
Discovered in 2004, graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice, making it the thinnest and strongest material ever known. Its exceptional conductivity, flexibility, and high surface area make it an ideal candidate for improving battery performance.
Graphene, a remarkable material with exceptional properties, is emerging as a game-changer in the battery industry. Discovered in 2004, graphene is a single layer of carbon atoms arranged in a honeycomb lattice, making it the thinnest and strongest material ever known.
Graphene isn’t the only advanced storage option being developed. The use of carbon nanotubes — another arrangement of carbon in long tubular molecules, as opposed to graphene’s sheets —has also been put forth for the role of energy storage. Graphene balls and curved/crumpled graphene are other carbon-based possibilities for energy storage.
Tackling degradation and improving lifespan: Li-sulfur batteries suffer from sulfur electrode degradation, which reduces their cycle life. However, graphene's protective properties can mitigate this degradation by preventing the dissolution of polysulfides and providing a stable framework for the electrodes.
