  • Patent number: 10826051
    Abstract: A method for producing the anode material of a lithium ion battery from flexible graphite powder, comprising (A) providing a dry flexible graphite, and pulverizing the dry flexible graphite by a pulverizing step, and filtering the dry flexible graphite with a sieve screen to obtain a uniform flexible graphite powder, (B) performing a ball-grinding step for the uniform flexible graphite powder by mixing with a solvent to obtain a liquid containing flexible graphite; (C) coating the liquid containing flexible graphite on a metal foil, and performing a rolling step to obtain an anode material. Then, the anode material is processed in its shape and is formed into an anode electrode plate. Thereafter, the anode electrode plate is stacked with a lower cover of the battery, a separating paper, a cathode electrode plate, a spring sheet and an upper cover of the battery to assemble the lithium ion battery.

  • Publication number: 20140308586
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a negative electrode for lithium ion rechargeable battery and a manufacturing method thereof. The negative electrode comprises at least one vermicular graphite and at least one pitch, wherein the vermicular graphite is fabricated by way of thermally treating an expandable graphite powder, and the pitch is adsorbed in the pores of the vermicular graphite. In the present invention, the pitch adsorbed in the vermicular graphite would be carbonized and graphitized, such that a composite graphite having multi-layer flake graphite is formed, and the composite graphite is further pulverized to a composite graphite powder. Moreover, the manufacturing method of the present invention can be used for fabricating the negative electrode for lithium ion rechargeable battery under the conditions of reducing manufacturing cost and solvent usage, so as to protect the environment from the manufacturing process pollution.
