What are the main components of lithium battery materials?

Lithium battery is a type of battery using lithium metal or lithium alloy as positive/negative material and non-aqueous electrolyte solution. Due to the highly reactive chemical properties of lithium metal, the processing, conservation and use of lithium metal have high environmental requirements. With the development of science and technology, lithium batteries have become the mainstream.

Carbon anode materials: the anode materials actually used in lithium-ion batteries are basically carbon materials, such as artificial graphite, natural graphite, mesophase carbon microspheres, petroleum coke, carbon fiber, pyrolysis resin carbon, etc.

Tin-based negative electrode materials: Tin-based negative electrode materials can be divided into two types: tin oxide and tin-based composite oxide. Oxides refer to the oxides of different valence metal tin. There are no commercial products.

Nitride: No commercial products available.

Alloy category: including tin-based alloys, silicon-based alloys, germanium-based alloys, aluminum-based alloys, antimony-based alloys, magnesium-based alloys, and other alloys, and there are no commercial products.

Nano level: carbon nanotubes, nano alloy materials.

Nano oxide: According to the latest market development trends in the lithium battery new energy industry in 2022, many companies have started to use nano titanium oxide and nano silicon oxide to add to the traditional graphite, tin oxide and carbon nanotubes, greatly improving the charging and discharging capacity and frequency of lithium batteries.
