High-conductivity aluminium current collector with dual carbon coating for advanced battery systems
The Cell Lab Double-Sided Carbon-Coated Aluminium Foil is an advanced current collector engineered for use in lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors and high-energy-density storage systems. Each side is coated with a uniform carbon layer that improves electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance and interface adhesion, ensuring superior performance and stability during long-term cycling.
Constructed from high-purity aluminium with precision carbon treatment, this dual-coated foil offers excellent heat dissipation and mechanical strength. It delivers consistent contact resistance and enhanced surface uniformity—ideal for demanding cathode formulations used in modern energy-storage research and production.
Improved Electrical Conductivity – Dual carbon layers enhance surface conductivity and ensure efficient current transfer.
Better Heat Dissipation – Facilitates rapid thermal diffusion under high-current operation, preventing localised overheating.
Increased Effective Surface Area – Carbon texture promotes better electrode adhesion and electrochemical reactivity.
Corrosion Resistance – Shields the aluminium substrate from oxidation and electrolyte corrosion for extended lifespan.
Reinforced Mechanical Strength – Dual coatings improve flexibility and resistance to tearing, folding or warping.
Excellent Chemical Stability – Maintains integrity in reactive or high-voltage battery chemistries.

Q1: What is the main benefit of using carbon-coated aluminium foil?
A1: It significantly improves electrical contact and corrosion resistance while reducing interface impedance between cathode material and current collector.
Q2: Can it be used with high-voltage or solid-state cathodes?
A2: Yes. Its chemical stability and uniform coating make it suitable for high-voltage and solid-state systems.
Q3: How does it differ from copper foil?
A3: Aluminium foil is lighter and chemically stable with cathode materials, while copper is primarily used for anodes.
Q4: What are the recommended processing conditions?
A4: Compatible with standard slurry coating, calendaring, and vacuum drying up to 150 °C.
Q5: How should it be stored?
A5: Keep sealed in a dry, clean environment below 40 °C to prevent surface oxidation and moisture adsorption.
You may return most new, unopened items within 30 days of delivery for a full refund. We'll also pay the return shipping costs if the return is a result of our error (you received an incorrect or defective item, etc.).
You should expect to receive your refund within four weeks of giving your package to the return shipper, however, in many cases you will receive a refund more quickly.
