Abstract
Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to carbon materials for battery electrodes and methods for preparing such carbon materials. More specifically, embodiments relate to coated nano-ordered carbon particles and methods for coating a carbon film onto carbonaceous particles to produce the coated nano-ordered carbon particles which can be used as an anode material within a rechargeable battery, such as a sodium-ion battery, other types of batteries. In one or more embodiments, a method for producing coated nano-ordered carbon particles is provided and includes exposing a carbon-containing material to an expanding agent to produce expanded carbonaceous particles during an expanding process, heating the expanded carbonaceous particles during an annealing process, and depositing a carbon film on the nano-ordered carbon particles to produce coated nano-ordered carbon particles during a carbon coating process.
