Application of the Multi-Species, Multi-Reaction Model to Coal-Derived Graphite for Lithium-Ion Batteries
Graphite is a critical material used as the negative electrode in lithium-ion batteries. Both natural and synthetic graphites are utilized, with the latter obtained from a range of carbon raw materials. In this paper, efforts to synthesize graphite from coal as a domestic feedstock for synthetic graphite are reported. Domestic coal-derived graphite could address national security and energy issues by standing up domestic supply chains for battery critical materials. The performance in lithium-ion coin cells of this coal derived graphite is compared to a commercial battery-grade graphite. For the first time, a multi-species, multi-reaction (MSMR) modeling technique is applied to synthetic graphite derived from coal. Key thermodynamic, transport, and kinetic parameters are obtained for the coal derived graphite and compared to the same parameters for commercial battery-grade graphite. Modeling of synthetic graphites will allow for virtual evaluation of these materials toward production of domestically sourced graphite.
