Exploring Particle Size Distribution in Silicon/Carbon Composite Anode for Lithium-Ion Batteries by Laser Diffraction

Silicon/carbon composite anodes are gaining attention in the next generation of lithium-ion batteries due to their ability to harness significant specific capacity.

This study focuses on maximizing the energy density of these anodes by monitoring particle size distribution to achieve substantial tapped density and proper specific surface area.  

The Bettersizer 2600 and BT-80N combination is instrumental in providing precise and highly repeatable measurements for particle size distribution, specifically designed for analyses using organic dispersants.
