Carbonaceous nanomaterials have received a great interest as the anodes for metal-ion batteries (Sodium and Potassium-ion batteries) with regard to their excellent performance in lithium-ion batteries. Despite that, their unique structural properties and abundant availability makes them very interesting materials to enhance the performance of the batteries for large-scale energy storage applications. ARCI is focusing on the development of different types of advanced carbon materials for energy storage applications such as lithium-ion, sodiumion batteries and Supercapacitors. Mainly exfoliated/expanded graphite (with increased d-spacing) is superior anode material for sodium ion batteries, which allow the sodium ions into intercalation process and metal oxide/ carbon composites are high performance anode materials for metal-ion batteries (Lithium and Sodium)
