6 FAQs about [Mainstream silicon battery technology]
What is a silicon-carbon battery?
A silicon-carbon battery is a lithium-ion battery with a silicon-carbon anode instead of the usual graphite anode. This design allows for higher energy density since silicon can hold much more lithium than graphite. Silicon has a charge capacity of 420 mAh/g — almost 13% higher than graphite's 372 mAh/g.
Why are silicon-carbon batteries better than lithium-ion batteries?
On top of this, silicon-carbon batteries have a higher energy density compared to lithium-ion batteries. This means that manufacturers can fit a higher battery capacity in the same size battery – or slim down a device without reducing the capacity at all.
Are silicon-based battery anode materials a step-change in energy storage?
The exciting potential of silicon-based battery anode materials, like our SCC55™, that are drop-in ready and manufactured at industrial scale, is that they create a step-change in what’s possible with energy storage.
Should EV batteries be made out of silicon?
Silicon promises longer-range, faster-charging and more-affordable EVs than those whose batteries feature today’s graphite anodes. It not only soaks up more lithium ions, it also shuttles them across the battery’s membrane faster. And as the most abundant metal in Earth’s crust, it should be cheaper and less susceptible to supply-chain issues.
Can silicon be used as a lithium battery anode?
In fact, silicon’s first documented use as a lithium battery anode even predates that of graphite— by seven years. But experiments with that element have been plagued by technical challenges—including volume expansion of the anode when loaded with lithium ions and the resulting material fracture that can happen when an anode expands and contracts.
What is a Sila battery?
Sila’s silicon powder consists of micrometer-size particles of nanostructured silicon and other materials surrounded by a porous scaffold made of another material. The material enables batteries with 20 percent higher energy density (which translates to about 160 kilometers more range for an EV) than those with graphite anodes.
