Specialty graphites for lithium-ion batteries

Contact 0

Without them, nothing runs in our modern digital world. Whether in electric cars, e-bikes or smartphones and laptops, highly efficient and safe lithium-ion batteries (LiB) are required almost everywhere. And graphite is indispensable as an anode material in lithium-ion battery cells.

Thanks to our extensive expertise, we offer the broadest range of customizable high-quality products and solutions for lithium-ion batteries.

Advantages of synthetic graphite over natural graphite:

Better cycling stability
Better fast charging performance
Higher quality consistency
Faster production scalability

For lithium-ion battery anodes, we produce high-quality graphite material in the double-digit kiloton range every year. Fueling battery gigafactories with our products is our mission. And we are able to scale up volumes as requested – always maintaining the high performance that characterizes all of our materials. That’s why our products really are “capacity boosters” for energy storage systems, which will help usher in the new era of energy.

Our customers benefit from energy storage with increased performance and reliability in a wide range of applications across all relevant industries. We provide tailor-made solutions based on our long-term experience and close development partnerships, including the option of large-scale production.

SGL Carbon is one of the largest manufacturers of LiB anode materials and plays a major role in the advancement of LiB technology.

As a member of the Lithium-Ion Battery Competence Network (KLiB) we seek to strengthen Germany's competitiveness in this key technology. That’s why we are continuously working together with industrial enterprises and research institutions to improve battery cell performance, service life and safety.

Our extensive expertise enables us to offer a wide range of customizable, high-quality products and solutions for lithium-ion batteries.
