Donut‘s supercapacitor or an all-solid-state battery

Is this a supercapacitor or an all-solid-state battery? 2026 post

New post from WeChat Official Account: Lithium Matters (言之成锂) Is this a supercapacitor or an all-solid-state battery? 2026 post Donut’s latest all-solid-state battery has been going viral across the internet over the past few days. Simultaneously, it has sent shockwaves through the overseas battery community. The performance data they released is simply mind-blowing—so incredible that it feels like technology from another planet.   A friend of mine, James—an industry veteran in the battery sector based abroad—has conducted an in-depth investigation and interpretation of this company and its newly released products. His detailed analysis is as follows: The specifications for Donut’s all-solid-state battery are as follows: Energy Density: 400 Wh/kg; Fast

Silicon vs. Graphite The Micro-War Defining the Future of Battery Performance

Silicon vs. Graphite: The Micro-War Defining the Future of Battery Performance 2026 post

Silicon vs. Graphite: The Micro-War Defining the Future of Battery Performance Under the microscope, silicon and graphite particles act like two athletes with starkly different temperaments, collaborating yet competing fiercely on the charging and discharging stage; the fate of the battery hinges on the outcome of this microscopic gambit. The composite electrode is formed by mechanically blending nano-silicon particles with micron-sized graphite particles, yielding electrochemical performance that is significantly superior to that of single-material batteries.   Silicon boasts a staggering theoretical capacity of 3,579 mAh/g—nearly ten times that of traditional graphite anodes—positioning it as a pivotal material for achieving high-energy-density batteries. By optimizing the competitive interplay between silicon and graphite,

Design Details of CATL’s Anode-Free Battery 2025

On April 21, 2025, at its Super Technology Day, CATL officially unveiled its “Self-Generated Anode” (SGA) technology. This innovation eliminates the use of traditional materials like graphite as the anode. Instead, by precisely controlling the deposition process of metallic elements (such as Lithium or Sodium), it forms a uniform and dense metallic layer directly on the current collector surface, significantly boosting the battery’s energy density. Through nanoscale interface structural design, the technology optimizes ion conduction paths, ensuring stable metal deposition during charge and discharge cycles while minimizing side reactions and active ion loss. This breakthrough addresses the long-standing challenge of cyclic degradation in lithium-metal anodes. Consequently, the ion conduction rate
