Latest Trends

Carbon Nanotubes Replacing Carbon Black

In 2025, multiple studies have demonstrated that replacing traditional carbon black (such as Super P) with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) in composite electrodes yields significantly improved conductivity and structural integrity. In one recent experiment, MWCNTinfused cathodes exhibited electron conductivity nearly double that of carbon-black equivalents, allowing manufacturers to reduce additive loading and increase active material proportion. Markets reports confirm that, although carbon black remains the fastestgrowing conductiveagent type in lithiumion cathodes, CNTs are regaining market share due to their superior performancetocost ratio and growing investment in scalable CNT production facilities globally.

Dry Electrode Manufacturing

Drybatteryelectrode (DBE) processes—such as PTFE-based fibrillation and powdertofilm extrusion—have gained traction as environmentally efficient alternatives to wet slurry methods. These solventfree techniques eliminate drying steps, lower energy consumption, and enable finer control over conductive-agent dispersion and alignment. In allsolidstate battery prototypes, dry-film electrodes have shown more uniform microstructure, reduced chargetransfer resistance, and easier integration of carbon-based additives like CNTs within the electrode matrix. Industry reviews published in early 2025 expect dry processing to support highloading and scalable solidstate cell production.

Interface Optimization and SpaceCharge Layer Effects

Researchers are now applying advanced interface engineering to address compatibility issues between carbon conductive agents and sulfide solid electrolytes. A recently proposed method involves coating carbon fibers (e.g. VGCF) with a thin layer of halide electrolyte (Li₃InCl₆), which suppresses parasitic reactions and stabilizes the interface. Cells using VGCF@Li₃InCl₆ achieved areal capacities around 7.7 mAh/cm² and retained nearly 78 percent capacity after 400 cycles. Separately, a spacecharge layer effect discovered in mid2025 shows that mixing two different solid electrolytes at particle boundaries can form interfacial zones that facilitate faster ion transport than either material alone. Both strategies point toward significant gains in interfacial ionic kinetics and long-term cycling stability.

Regional Momentum in AsiaPacific, Europe and North America

The AsiaPacific region—especially China, Japan and South Korea—continues to dominate production and adoption of conductive agents in solidstate batteries, driven by large-scale battery manufacturers and CNT producers investing in new capacity. Simultaneously, Europe has seen strategic expansion: OCSiAl opened its first European graphenenanotube facility in Serbia in late 2024, with annual capacity set at 60 tonnes and plans to scale to 120 tonnes by the end of 2025. In North America, partnerships and pilot lines with automakers such as GM and Ford are integrating CNTbased conductive layers into quasisolidstate cell prototypes, indicating growing regional focus on solidstate commercialization.
