Hard Carbon vs. Soft Carbon

What is hard carbon? Hard carbon refers to carbon materials that are difficult to graphitize above 2500°C. It gets its name from its high mechanical hardness. Hard carbon is generally made through heat treatment at 500–1200°C. Sources include resin carbon (phenolic, epoxy, polyfurfuryl alcohol), pyrolytic carbon (PVA, PVC, PVDF, PAN), carbon black, and biomass carbon. […]
