What is spherical carbon? Spherical graphite It is produced from high-quality natural flake graphite with high carbon content as the raw material. A modern processing technique is then used to modify its surface in order to create graphite products of different finenesses and shapes, such as ellipses.
Applications of spherical graphite
Spherical graphite is characterized by its good electrical conductivity. It is used in the production of lithium-ion batteries both domestically and internationally as a negative battery electrode. Material replacement products. It has a high capacity for charge and discharge, long cycle time, and excellent environmental protection.
Preparation of Spherical Graphite
After high-temperature separation, the graphite is purified to high purity by a process called spherical processing.

Use of spherical carbon graphite for the battery industry
As the world moves towards a clean energy-based economy, with electric vehicles (motors, passengers, and heavy transport), and home energy-storage, the demand for cost effective energy storage solutions is driving the growth of graphite flakes.
Spherical graphite The lithium-ion battery (LiB) is not able to function properly without this ingredient. Anode components of LiBs are made of a sphere of graphite.
Spherical Graphite is historically derived using synthetic graphite. It’s a much more expensive option than flake natural graphite.
A mechanical attrition is usually used to form flake graphite in a rounded and spherical shape. Spherical Graphite is packaged more efficiently in a LiB’s anode due to its rounded shape. This allows the LiB to have a higher energy capacity and recharge rate.
LiB requires different Spherical Graphite Particle Sizes as the Spherical Graphite Particle Size impacts the LiB’s performance targets. i.e. In a LiB which has a higher charging rate, a Spherical Graphite with a d50 value of 10 microns is used, while a LiB having a high power requirement would require a larger Spherical Graphite with d50 values of 20 microns.
After purification, the spheroid is cleaned to remove any unwanted elements, such as SiO2, Fe or S. There are several purification methods. There are several purification techniques, including hydrofluoric and aggressive acid. Both methods have their own advantages and drawbacks.
Purified after purification Spherical Graphite Coating is done to increase the surface area of the particles. Many LiB producers used their proprietary technology to coat the particles.
The Spherical Graphite, which has been purified and coated, is then shaped into the shape required for LiB Batteries.
Spherical Graphite (SGP) has proven itself to be a good material for Lithium-Ion Battery Applications.
