DOMESTIC BIO-RENEWABLE PRODUCTS AS NEW SUPPLY CHAIN FOR ADVANCE ECOPHITE BATTERY ANODE MATERIALS

Objective

The proposed Phase I research overarching goals are:1) To demonstrate reproducible and reliable synthesis of ECOphiteTM materials from bio-feedstocks and2) To demonstrate that these ECOphite materials are desirable products for use in anodes in advanced batteries.The objectives that will be undertaken to achieve these goals are:1)Prepare and evaluate ECOphite materials from bio-renewable lignin used as a raw carbon source material.2) Prepare and evaluate ECOphite materials from bio-renewable crystalline nanocellulose raw materials.3) Prepare and test half-cell coin size batteries with ECOphite anodes from Objectives 1 and 2.
