  • Patent number: 10608246
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an anode for a lithium-ion battery and a method of manufacturing the same. The anode is manufactured from a material composed of Si and C known as SBA-15/C having a porous structure of mesopores interconnected by micropores, wherein carbon nanofibers occupy the pore space of the porous structure. The anode has improved conductivity properties and allows to mitigate the drawbacks linked to the volumetric expansion of the anode during the operation of a lithium-ion battery.
    Type: Grant
