Elcora Advanced Materials Corp. announced that the positive results of lithium ion battery tests using Elcora’s graphite powder. These independent tests, performed by Coulometrics, show that Elcora Anode Material show significant advancement and performs at least as well as competitive electric vehicle batteries under HPC testing. The process and performance of other aspects of the battery: cathode, separator, and electrolyte is currently being optimized. Over the last six months Elcora has worked on developing the processes and equipment to produce high quality anode powder for lithium ion battery anodes. The tap density is a measure of the packing of the graphite. The higher this value the better. The company target is greater than 1.0. Competitor values have been under 1.0. The BET surface area value should be as low as possible. This value does change with particle size. The company values compare favorably with the established competitors. The carbon grade of Elcora graphite after purification is matches and exceeds that of the comparators. However, the Elcora graphite has been produced using company proprietary process without using acid or alkaline processes. This make company product considerably better from an environmental perspective. In terms of the D10/5/90 values, the current Elcora tests show that range as being 13.1 /28.3 /53.1. This distribution can be adjusted by varying equipment settings. A d10 target of 10 micrometers and the d90 of 30 micrometers are operationally viable, however, this distribution is being optimized on battery performance rather using particle size distribution as the definitive metric. Final stage, completed to date, was the fabrication and testing of standard 2.2 mAh 16,850 batteries and High Precision Coulometry (HPC). A formulation for graphite slurry was determined and anodes made.
