Among the different materials often studied and proposed as negative electrodes for lithium-ion batteries, graphite anodes
are the most used in commercial batteries. For this study, synthetic graphite was tested. During the first discharge 0.2 Li
ions were consumed for the formation of the SEI film and the capacity reaches about 387 mAh/g. But at the end of the first
charge only 72% of the initial charge was recovered (the reversible capacity is about 279 mAh/g). In order to improve this
performance we have deposited metallic nickel on graphite with the intention to obtain a homogeneous thin layer able to modify
the nature of the SEI film, to allow the diffusion of lithium ions through the protective layer, and also to increase the
performance of graphite electrodes. The results show a decrease of the irreversible capacity loss (16% instead of 28% for
pure graphite electrodes) as well as better cycleability for a nickel-deposited graphite electrode with only 11% weight ratio
of nickel. On the other hand, an increase of the nickel content decreases this performance.
