Nano Silicon Anode Material Si Powder CAS 7440-21-3

What is Nano Silicon Anode Material Si Powder:

Silicon is the most promising electrode material for the next generation of lithium-ion batteries, with a specific capacity (3600 mAh/g) about ten times higher than graphite (372 mAh/g). However, its use is severely limited due to the significant expansion of the material in the loaded (lithified) state (over 300%) and the instability of the solid electrolyte interface layer (SEI). The poor mechanical stability and chemical passivation properties of the silicon electrode make the cyclability of the silicon electrode far from meeting the requirements of the battery system and have inspired many studies and proposals to circumvent these limitations.

During lithium insertion, the volume of silicon changes so much (~400%) that the silicon breaks and falls off the collector, resulting in a prototype lithium-silicon battery losing most of its capacity in less than ten charge-discharge cycles. The key to the success of high-capacity lithium-ion batteries is to solve the problem of the capacity and stability of lithium-ion silicon.

Silicon anode materials show great potential for improving lithium-ion batteries' efficiency and energy storage capacity. Until recently, their main drawback was surface oxidation passivation, which increases impedance and reduces the circularity of the anode. Our high-purity silicon anode materials achieve high specific capacity without significantly affecting cycle life. TRUNNANO is a trusted global Nano Silicon Anode Material Si Powder supplier.

Performance of Nano Silicon Anode Material Si Powder :

Nano silicon anode material (CAS 7440-21-3) has high capacity, high first effect, long cycle, low expansion, excellent processing performance, and rate performance, and it matches well with the existing graphite anode system.

Characteristics of nano silicon powder negative electrode materials

Nanostructure: nano-silicon powder anode materials have nanoscale particle size, generally between 10-50 nanometers. This nanostructure can significantly improve the electrochemical performance and energy density of the material, effectively reduce the internal resistance of the material, and improve the charging and discharging efficiency of the battery.

High energy density: Nano silicon powder anode materials have a huge specific surface area and a high energy density. In lithium-ion batteries, the theoretical specific capacity of nanosilicon powder anode material can reach 4200mAh/g, much higher than the theoretical specific capacity of graphite anode material (372mAh/g).

Good electrochemical performance:

During the charging and discharging process, the volume change of nano-silicon powder anode material is small, which can keep the structure stable, thus prolonging the battery's life.

High conductivity: nanosilicon powder anode materials have high conductivity, which enables electrons to be rapidly transmitted in the electrodes, reduces the internal resistance of the battery, and improves the charging and discharging performance of the battery.

How is Nano Silicon Anode Material Si Powder Produced? 

A method for forming a silicon anode material for a rechargeable battery includes a metal matrix providing not more than 30% silicon, including a silicon structure dispersed therein. The metallic matrix is etched at least partially to at least partially isolate the silicon structure.

Particles containing a metallic silicon alloy comprising a metallic matrix and a silicon structure dispersed in the metallic matrix comprising not more than 30wt % of silicon, and by removing the metal from the metal-silicon alloy, the metal matrix of the metal-silicon alloy is etched at least partially to form a porous silicon particle comprising a plurality of interconnected structural elements.

Applications of nano-silicon powder anode materials

Lithium-ion batteries: nanosilicon powder anode materials are widely used in lithium-ion batteries. Compared with traditional graphite anode materials, nano-silicon powder anode materials have higher energy density and better electrochemical performance and thus can provide faster charge/discharge rate and longer battery life. In electric vehicles, mobile devices, and other fields, nano-silicon powder anode materials have a broad application prospect.

Solid State Battery: Solid state battery is a new type of battery technology whose electrolyte is a solid state substance, which has the advantages of high safety, long life, and high energy density. Nano-silicon powder anode materials can be used as anode materials for solid-state batteries to improve the battery's energy density and cycle stability.

Energy storage and conversion: In addition to being used as battery materials, nano silicon powder anode materials can also be used in energy storage and conversion. For example, in supercapacitors, the huge specific surface area of nano silicon powder anode materials can improve capacitors' energy density and charge/discharge speed. In addition, nano-silicon powder can also be used as a catalyst material in energy conversions, such as fuel and solar cells.

Composite materials: Nano-silicon powder anode materials can be compounded with other materials to form composite materials with excellent performance. For example, composites of silicon nanopowder with carbon nanotubes or graphene can further improve the conductivity and energy density of the material.

Other applications: Silicon nanopowder anode materials can also manufacture other products. For example, nano silicon powder can be added as an additive to plastics, rubber, and other polymer materials to improve the hardness and strength of the material. In addition, nano silicon powder can also be used to manufacture coatings, cosmetics, and other products to improve performance and added value.
