Graphix Advantageously Replaces Battery - Grade Graphite
Graphix is a Turbostratic Graphene Blend, and is the ideal replacement for battery grade graphite in lithium batteries. Like graphite, Graphix is made of carbon atoms but in a different stacking arrangement (turbostratic) of the hexagonal planes.
This stacking results in a wider spacing of the hexagonal carbon planes, facilitating the penetration of Lithium ions.
The result is higher storage (longer use between charges) and faster charging.

How does Graphix improve a Lithium Ion Battery (LIB)?
Graphix enhances lithium ion battery (LIB) performance by substituting the traditional negative electrode with a superior carbon-based material. Unlike common graphite, mined or derived from oil, Graphix from Faradyne offers significant electrical improvements, contributing to the creation of batteries that match the top-performing LIBs in cost- effectiveness and ecological friendliness. As the negative anode represents roughly 20% of an LIB's weight and expense, Graphix promises to boost profits and sustainability for LIB producers, allowing marketers to promote a product that excels in affordability, performance, and environmental benefits
How does Graphix improve super-capacitors?
The current materials used in electric double-layer capacitors (EDLC's), commonly known as super-capacitors, is activated carbon for both electrodes in each super-cap. The way that super-caps store their energy (electrostatically, pseudo-capacitively) is what enables the fast rates of charge and discharge compared to batteries (chemical storage via lithium-ion intercalation). While the differences start there, the other performance benefits of super-caps are in safety and lifetime with a current penalty of range or duration. Graphix has the potential to transform the super-cap space, reducing charging times while increasing energy density, while also improving environmental and economic sustainability across the electrical energy storage technology base.
