Study on Modification Methods to Improve Li Ion Storage Capacity of Carbon Black

Abstract To address the problem regarding to the greenhouse gas emissions, the unfolding of electric vehicle (EV) installing lithium ion batteries (LIBs) is widely encouraged in the world by using carbon black (CB) as conductive agent. In CB materials, modification methods are effective ways to enhance the Li+ storage capacity of CB. For instance, the CB was successfully modified by organic and inorganic compounds for remarkable improvement of storage capacity. Considering the fact that CB possesses the remarkable price advantages, the usage of CB is able to remarkably diminish the fabrication cost of LIBs, facilitating that the EV becomes popular.
