Anode Materials
Anode Materials
Anode materials play a pivotal role in the functioning of a Lithium Ion Battery. Whether powering our smartphones, electric vehicles, or renewable energy storage systems, anodes are fundamental components that influence the overall performance and efficiency of these technologies. The choice of anode material is critical, which dictates factors such as Discharge Capacity, Cycle life, and charging rate of a LiB. Almost all the LiB in the world use graphite materials as anode material due to its material characteristics such as structural stability, low electrochemical reactivity and structural alignment for storing lithium ions.
Anode material (Graphite material) enables electric current to flow through the battery while allowing reversible storage/release of lithium ions received from the cathode. During the process of charging a LiB, lithium ions are stored in the anode. During the process of discharging, the lithium ions flow back to the cathode through the electrolyte.
Himadri aims to produce Best-In-Class Anode Materials with “Low Carbon Footprint”. Himadri is backwardly integrated to the precursor coke for Anode Materials through our in-house precursor “Meso-coke” technology. Himadri’s Anode Materials aim to address main LiB applications in EVs and ESS.
We offer primarily 4 different types of Anode materials to our customers. However, each particular type is further customized and developed to suit and better the customer requirements and battery performance respectively.

Himadri currently intends to offer 4 different type of Anode Materials for lithium-ion batteries, which are:
Synthetic Graphite
These characteristics make our synthetic graphite a preferred choice in lithium-ion batteries, where it serves as a reliable anode material, enabling extended cycle life and improved overall battery performance.
Natural Graphite
Himadri’s Natural Graphite aims to provide a higher capacity Anode Materials, and which has a high ESG score with respect to our peers, including Chinese Natural Graphite manufacturers.
Silicon Composites in Anode Materials
One of Himadri’s key missions is ‘Continuous Innovation’ of new products, aided by latest technology, to cater to the ever-evolving market demand.
Hybrid Anode
Himadri has also developed Hybrid anodes- which represent an emerging frontier of Anode Materials in lithium-ion battery technology.
