Main Feature of KURANODE

KURANODE is anode material classified in hard carbon, used for lithium-ion battery.
It is made from ecofriendly natural plant as raw material.
Hard carbon including KURANODE has better input and output performances,
cycle performance and low temperature performance than graphite which is broadly used as anode material.
Moreover, KURANODE has cost competitiveness and good handling property (less moisture absorption) in
comparison with traditional hard carbon.

• Strong Benefit of
  Hard Carbon

  Input and Output Performances

  Cycle Performance

  Low Temperature Performance

• Further Benefit

  Cost Competitiveness

  High Moisture Resistance
  (water based binder is usable)

• 1

  Especially suitable for applications requiring regeneration capability
  such as automobile use.

• 2

  Suitable for anode materials not only lithium-ion battery (LIB) but also lithium-ion capacitor (LIC) or sodium-ion battery (SIB, NaIB)

• 3

  Usable with water based binder (e.g. SBR/CMC) as well as solvent based binder (e.g. PVDF) thanks to its high moisture resistance.

Low Temperature Performance

• Cathode: NCM
• Cell: Laminate type
• Measured by Kuraray

• Charge rate property at -20℃

  

• Discharge rate property at -20℃

  

Hybrid Pulse Power Characterization

• Cathode: NCM
• Cell: Laminate type
• Temperature: 25℃
• Plotted maximum input/output pulse power for 10s of each SOC
• Measured by Kuraray

• Input and Output
  Performances
  are superior
  to graphite which is commonly
  used as anode material.

Grade/Properties

Type1 is high capacity type and Type2 is low moisture absorbency type.
