Anode Electrode Sheets for Lithium-ion Batteries

Graphite remains the industry-standard anode material for lithium-ion batteries due to its reliable intercalation chemistry and excellent balance of energy density, power, and cost. Its layered hexagonal structure allows for the reversible insertion of lithium ions (LiC6) with minimal overpotential. While it offers a lower theoretical capacity than materials like silicon, graphite provides a reliable balance of energy density and structural stability over many cycles.

By providing a well-characterized, ready-to-use electrode format, our graphite anode sheets allow researchers to focus on evaluating new electrolytes, separators, or cathode materials against a validated and reliable anode platform.

NANOMYTE® Graphite Electrode Sheets

NEI offers two variations of graphite electrodes: NANOMYTE® BE-200E made with natural graphite and NANOMYTE® BE-250E made with synthetic graphite.

Standard electrode sheets are 5 inches x 10 inches (127 mm x 254 mm) and cast either single-sided or double-sided on 10 µm thick copper foil current collectors. NEI also offers customization options, such as different active material loadings, electrode composition, binder type, current collector, and more.
