Abstract
Provided is a method of producing a mass of graphene-embraced particulates, comprising (A) peeling off graphene sheets from graphite particles and directly or indirectly transferring these graphene sheets to encapsulate primary particles of an anode active material using an energy-impact device, wherein multiple graphene sheets are overlapped together to embrace or encapsulate a primary particle; and (B) combining the resulting graphene-encapsulated primary particles with additional graphene sheets, along with an optional conductive additive, to form graphene-embraced particulates. Also provided are an anode electrode comprising multiple graphene-embraced particulates and a battery comprising such an anode electrode.
