TLDR
In this paper, the role of the particle size and fraction of edge sites on the rate of intercalation and de-intercalation of Li + ions in graphite was investigated, and it was shown that 3D natural graphite with a particle size of 12-μm may provide the optimum combination of reversible capacity and irreversible capacity loss in the electrolyte and discharge rates used in this study.

Rate capability of graphite materials as negative electrodes in lithium-ion capacitors

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of various commercial graphite materials were evaluated using galvanostatic charge/discharge cycling in a half-cell configuration over a wide range of C-rates (0.1 similar to 60C) and showed that graphite is capable of de-intercalating stored charge at high rates, but has poor intercalating rate capability.

The Limits of Low‐Temperature Performance of Li‐Ion Cells

TL;DR: In this article, the results of electrode and electrolyte studies reveal that the poor low-temperature (<-30 degrees C) performance of Li-ion cells is mainly caused by the carbon electrodes and not the organic electrolytes and solid electrolyte interphase, as previously suggested.
