Q1: What is the advantage of carbon-coated LFP compared to uncoated LFP?
A: The carbon coating enhances conductivity, reduces internal resistance, and improves high-rate charge–discharge performance.
Q2: Is this material compatible with standard NMP-based cathode slurry formulations?
A: Yes. It disperses well in both PVDF/NMP and water-based binder systems (such as CMC/SBR).
Q3: What is the recommended calcination temperature for re-coating or surface modification?
A: Typically between 600–700 °C under inert or reducing atmosphere, depending on the carbon precursor used.
Q4: Can it be used in full-cell or half-cell testing?
A: Yes. It is suitable for both coin-cell and pouch-cell configurations, matched with graphite or LTO anodes.
Q5: How should the powder be stored?
A: Store in airtight containers in a dry, inert atmosphere (argon or nitrogen) to prevent surface oxidation.
