A carbon fiber 150 nanometers in diameter and 6 microns long. Its long, straight structure creates continuous conduction bridges spanning the electrode, in contrast to the point contacts of carbon black. These bridges are particularly valuable in volume-changing systems such as silicon anodes, where they prevent the conduction network from breaking during expansion.

Key Features

Long fiber structure creating continuous conduction bridges across the electrode
Prevents the conduction network from breaking in volume-changing anodes
Low surface area of 13 m²/g, limiting electrolyte consumption
