Chapter 68 Announcement!

"The cathode material, lithium cobalt oxide gel, the anode material carbon crystal. The limited voltage is 3.86V, the charging limit voltage is 4.5V, and the rated capacity is 8500mAh..."

Mo Nu was reporting battery data, but Chen Mo was carefully watching the battery in his hand.

In three days, after pulping, coating and assembly, Chen Mo finally succeeded in making the first carbon crystal-based lithium ion battery according to the battery size of the butterfly eye.

Like all ordinary batteries, carbon crystal-based batteries also include three parts: the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the electrolyte. The only difference is the material.

Carbon crystal can greatly increase the charge and discharge capacity of lithium ions and the number of recharges.

This makes the capacity of carbon crystal-based lithium-ion batteries better than batteries of other materials.

There are defects in the atomic structure of the carbon crystal, which makes it not too rigid, tough and ductile.So it is not as versatile as the super material like graphene. Its only purpose is to serve as the negative electrode of the battery and to insert lithium ions.

It is this single use that limits its continued development, so it is a low-level technology.

However, before the graphene battery technology is fully mature, the carbon crystal-based battery is a very good product.Because of its electric capacity, it is probably more than twice the capacity of existing lithium-ion batteries on the market.

"Mo Nu, your technology related to carbon crystal synthesis is sorted into patent application materials and printed out." Chen Mo put down the battery in his hand and said.

"Okay, Brother Mo."

After a while, the printer connected to the computer in the laboratory rang.Chen Mo left the laboratory after obtaining the technical patent materials for carbon crystal synthesis.

Today is the day of mass production experiments, and Zhao Min is already waiting for him.

Walking to Zhao Min's office, Chen Mo gave her the patent application materials in hand: "This is the patent application materials of Carbon Crystal."

"So fast?"

Zhao Min picked up the document and glanced at it. There are many technical terms on it, but she just glanced at it and put it down.

With new materials, Zhao Min is now extremely curious about Chen Mo's head.What is in it, and how long has it been since the discovery of new materials to the application?

This kind of research cycle is terribly short, and people who don't know think that Tesla has reborn.

"I was sorting out the information at the beginning of the experiment. Next, I will go to the factory. The battery has come out to confirm that the materials are useful. Next is the mass production experiment."

"What is the capacity of the battery it produces?" Zhao Min asked curiously.

"Are you using butterfly eyes? The new battery comes out, and preliminary calculations can make it last for 35 hours."

Zhao Min took a breath, her eyes full of surprise.

Currently on the market, the battery life of a common mobile phone is only a dozen hours, and Chen Mo's figure means that the battery life of the mobile phone will more than double.

"Let's go, go to the factory."

Zhao Min followed Chen Mo and left the office. The two walked out, and Xiao Yu also followed Chen Mo with his documents.Galloping all the way, a group of people came to the factory mightily.

After Chen Mo said that he entered the industry, Zhao Min began to purchase factories.This factory is the closest to the company's office building, so it has also been transformed into a pilot factory for research and use.

The equipment Chen Mo has bought has already been installed here, and the raw materials for graphite are also ready.

As soon as they arrived at the factory, the director of the factory hurriedly greeted them.

The factory director's name is Wan Mingyi, a middle-aged man in his forties.In the past, the factory closed down, the boss took money to go abroad, and defaulted on bank loans and employee wages. The court auctioned the factory and equipment, but Zhao Min bought them all. The workers are still the original factory workers and are very familiar with some production processes.

After Wan Mingyi saw Chen Mo and Zhao Min, people became more cautious.

Now Marching Ant Company, anyone who pays a little attention to the news knows this name, especially those in Binhai City.

"Where is the production workshop?" Chen Mo asked.

"Here." Wan Mingyi said to you.

"Let a few clever technicians come over, and I will tell you the production process and some precautions." Chen Mo said.

"Ok."

Wan Mingyi ordered several technicians from the factory workers, followed Chen Mo, and entered the production workshop.

Seeing the machines and high-pressure reaction tanks in the workshop, Chen Mo walked over, turned on the equipment's control system, and started to set parameters.For the production of carbon crystals, this data is the most important. If it is wrong, the purity of the carbon crystals will be affected.

"Now start feeding." Chen Mo said: "Two people are here to operate the reaction tank." Chen Mo shouted to the employees behind.

"Ahua, Daqiang, you two will go over." Wan Mingyi said to two young technicians beside him.

"boss."

After the two walked to Chen Mo's side, they greeted Chen Mo cautiously.They have to admire the boss who is younger than them.

"The job to do in this position is very simple, that is, the switch is responsible for the reaction tank. After the raw materials are put in, turn on the reaction tank. I have set the specific parameters. The temperature indicator indicates that it is completed, and you turn on the pressurization button..."

Chen Mo talked about all the necessary steps and listened to them, and after making sure that both of them understood, he stopped.

Chen Mo did not tell anyone the specific data.Data is the key to carbon crystal synthesis. If the data is exposed, then my own efforts will be in vain.

"Let me demonstrate the operation once." After the raw materials were put in, Chen Mo turned on the reactor.

The people behind, all their eyes are on the reaction tank.After about fifteen minutes, the high-pressure reaction tank stopped running.

After the reaction tank was opened, a large number of pieces of carbon chips of different sizes were all poured on the assembly line.All the machines stopped, and all the employees of the factory focused their eyes on the carbon crystal piles on the conveyor line.

This dark thing is what they want to produce.

Chen Mo took a piece of carbon crystal from the assembly line, walked to the instrument, and put it into it.Not long after, Chen Mo frowned when seeing the 79% purity shown above.

It is 3% lower than the laboratory purity and lower than the standard 80.

This is understandable. After all, the laboratory's equipment is much more sophisticated than here. The same conditions and purity are slightly lower, which is completely acceptable.

"This batch of materials will all be scrapped and destroyed, and we will continue to put in raw materials."

Chen Mo picked up the notebook and wrote down the current parameters. After a little calculation, he walked back to the instrument and started another experiment.

The precision of the equipment is different, which has an impact on production.

After modifying the data, while waiting, Chen Mo explained other things to pay attention to.

"Director Wan, when you start production in the future, you will have 20 pieces of materials randomly selected for testing. Once there is one piece with a purity of less than 80, just like just now, all the materials in that batch will be discarded."

"Good." Wan Mingyi nodded.

Two hours later, Chen Mo looked at the 82% indicated on the purity test and sighed.After four data revisions, the purity was finally improved.

"In the future, production will be based on this data, and the response must be controlled well."

"Understood." Wan Mingyi nodded.

The success of the mass production test gave many people a sigh of relief.After explaining some things clearly, Chen Mocai and everyone rushed back to the company.After explaining Zhao Min's acquisition of several factories and preparing for battery production, Chen Mo returned to the office.

"Mo Girl."

"Brother Mo, Mo Nu is here." Mo Nu said as soon as Chen Mo spoke.

"On the company's official website, in my name, announce the discovery of a new material, carbon crystal, and do not publish technical data."
