    Abstract: A composition suitable for a negative plate of lead-acid battery includes (a) a lead-based active material; (b) at least one material selected from the group consisting of a lignosulfonate and barium sulfate; and (c1) carbon black particles having a Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area greater than or equal to 90 m2/g and less than or equal to 900 m2/g, and an oil adsorption number (OAN) greater than or equal to 150 mL/100 g and less than or equal to 300 mL/100 g, or (c2) carbon black particles having a BET surface area greater than or equal to 40 m2/g and less than or equal to 500 m2/g, and graphenes particles. The composition has a theoretical negative active mass (NAM) BET surface area greater than or equal to 0.75 m2/g and less than or equal to 2 m2/g. The compositions can be used in electrodes, e.g., those used in lead-acid batteries.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are electrode compositions comprising a homogeneous mixture comprising: a lead-containing material and a carbon additive comprising carbon black and activated carbon. A total amount of the carbon additive ranges from 0.1% to 2% by weight, relative to the total weight of the composition. The composition can have a ratio of carbon black to activated carbon ranging from 0.1:0.9 to 0.5:0.5. The activated carbon can have a d50 particle size distribution ranging from 4 μm to 100 μm, and a pore volume of at least 0.7 cm3/g. Also disclosed are electrodes formed from the electrode composition, cells (e.g., lead-acid battery) comprising the electrodes/electrode compositions, and methods of making thereof.

    Abstract: The invention is directed to high surface area graphitized carbon and to processes for making high surface area graphitized carbon. The process includes steps of graphitizing and increasing the surface area of (in either order) a starting carbon material to form high surface area graphitized carbon. The step of increasing the surface area optionally comprises an oxidizing step (e.g., through steam etching) or template removal from composite particles. The invention is also directed to catalyst particles and electrodes employing catalyst particles that are formed from the high surface area graphitized carbon.
