Description

As the demand for battery systems continues to grow, the need for innovative materials and technologies to improve their performance and sustainability has become increasingly important. Heraeus Porocarb® is a synthetic porous carbon additive that has been developed to enhance the performance of batteries in synergy with other carbon conductive additives.[1,2] By tailoring the inner porosity, specific surface area, and particle size distribution, Porocarb® can be optimized for use in anode and cathode electrodes, improving their discharge capacity and pulse power performance. Additionally, Porocarb® can aid in the processability of battery slurries by enhancing rheology and dispersion properties. Porocarb®'s unique characteristics make it an exciting addition to the array of materials for current battery developments and provide innovative solutions to improve performance of next-generation batteries.
