How to Solve “Overgrinding” and “Agglomeration” Problems in Powder Production with an Air Classifier ？
In powder production—especially in the preparation of ultrafine powders—overgrinding and agglomeration are two common challenges. Overgrinding refers to a situation in which qualified fine particles continue to be ground. This leads to energy waste, a broader particle size distribution, and, in some cases, degraded product performance. Agglomeration occurs when ultrafine particles attract each other through […]
Graphite Ultrafine Grinding : How Does It Enable the Next Generation of High-Energy-Density Batteries?
Graphite is one of the most classical members of the carbon family. It has long dominated lithium-ion battery anode materials. This is due to its excellent thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity. Graphite also offers high-temperature resistance and lubricating properties. It has been listed as a critical raw material by the EU and the United States. […]
How are lithium iron phosphate cathode materials produced?
Cathode materials, one of the four main materials in lithium batteries (cathode, anode, separator, and electrolyte), are crucial components of lithium batteries. They also account for a large portion of the battery’s cost. The cost of cathode materials largely determines the price of the battery. Among lithium battery cathode materials, mainstream materials include lithium cobalt […]
Can Jet Milling Solve the Persistent Agglomeration Problem in Ammonium Molybdate Production?
Ammonium molybdate (mainly including ammonium dimolybdate, ammonium tetramolybdate, and ammonium heptamolybdate) is an important intermediate in molybdenum deep processing. It is widely used in the production of molybdenum powder, molybdenum trioxide, catalysts, molybdenum metal products, and agricultural molybdenum fertilizers. During ammonium molybdate production, agglomeration has long been a persistent challenge for the industry. This problem […]
What Are the Three Main Preparation Methods of Barium Titanate Powder?
Barium titanate (BaTiO₃) powder is the primary raw material of titanate-based electronic ceramics. As a typical ferroelectric material with excellent dielectric properties, it is widely used in multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs), sonar devices, infrared radiation detectors, grain-boundary ceramic capacitors, and positive temperature coefficient (PTC) thermistors. With broad application prospects, barium titanate is regarded as a […]
How to Prepare Porous Carbon from Activated Carbon？
Activated carbon is itself a typical porous carbon material. It features a highly developed pore structure, a large specific surface area, and excellent adsorption performance. It is widely used in adsorption, catalyst supports, and energy storage. Porous carbon is a broader concept that includes carbon materials with micro-, meso-, and macropores. In particular, hierarchical porous […]

With outstanding thermal stability, high strength, excellent electrical and thermal conductivity, stable chemical properties, and superior lubricity, plasticity, and thermal shock resistance, natural graphite plays an irreplaceable role across traditional industries and emerging strategic sectors. It is often referred to as a […]
Why Ceramic-Lined Pulverizing Equipment Is Essential in the Production of New Energy Cathode and Anode Materials
In the lithium-ion battery industry, the ultra-fine grinding and classification of cathode and anode materials are key processes that directly determine material performance. Whether it is high-nickel cathode (NCM/NCA), lithium iron phosphate (LFP), artificial graphite, soft carbon, or hard carbon, powder quality strongly affects battery energy density, rate capability, and cycle life. As battery performance […]
How Does Air Jet Mill Affect the Particle Size Distribution and Morphological Characteristics of Hard Carbon Anode Materials?
The practical performance of hard carbon anode materials in sodium-ion batteries is highly dependent on their microstructure, and the particle size distribution (PSD) and morphology are key factors determining ion diffusion pathways, electrode packing density, first-cycle Coulombic efficiency, and cycle stability. Air jet mill, as the most commonly used ultrafine grinding method in hard carbon […]
