Fabrication of High-capacity pouch cells using indigenously developed carbon coated LFP cathode and commercial graphite anode for lithium-ion battery applications (LIBs)

ARCI has developed an innovative and low-cost technology for the production of in-situ carbon coated Lithium Iron Phosphate (C-LFP) as a cathode material for Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). This technology has also been successfully demonstrated on large scale up to the quantity of (10 Kg/batch) for industrial purposes. Further, the same C-LFP and graphite anode have been used for fabricating high-capacity pouch cells (10 Ah) for LIBs. The electrochemical performance of the fabricated cells demonstrated the initial capacity of 9.27 Ah and retained the capacity retention of 99% at 0.2C-rate after 100 cycles. The fabricated pouch cells can also be used in various battery applications.
