Abstract

We report that various kinds of active sites on graphite surface including active hydrophilic sites markedly affect the electrochemical performance of graphite anodes for lithium-ion batteries under different humidity conditions. After depositing metals such as Ag and Cu by immersion and heat-treating, these active sites on the graphite surface were removed or covered and its electrochemical performance under the high humidity conditions was markedly improved. This suggests that lithium-ion batteries can be assembled under less strict conditions and provides a valuable direction toward lowering the manufacturing cost for lithium-ion batteries.
