FAQ

Q1: How does soft carbon compare with hard carbon as an anode material?
A1: Soft carbon provides higher electrical conductivity and better structural flexibility, though with slightly lower specific capacity than hard carbon.

Q2: Is this powder suitable for coin-cell and pouch-cell fabrication?
A2: Yes. Its particle size and flowability are optimised for slurry mixing and uniform coating in both formats.

Q3: Can it be used with sodium-ion electrolytes?
A3: Absolutely. It exhibits excellent electrochemical compatibility with NaPF₆-based and other sodium electrolyte systems.

Q4: Does it require any pre-treatment before use?
A4: Drying at 80–100 °C under vacuum is recommended to remove residual moisture before slurry preparation.

Q5: What binder systems are compatible?
A5: PVDF, CMC/SBR and water-based binders are all suitable for this material in standard anode formulations.
