8 8 Partner for environmentally friendly energy storage We have used our extensive understanding of specific customer requirements to refine our portfolio of carbon and graphite felts. The result: SIGRACELL battery felts for energy storage. In Cellcube flow battery system, they contribute to the rapid supply of clean and emission-free energy. They also increase safety and storage ability. This is just one example of an applicationspecific optimized solution from the SGL Group.

9 SPECIALTY GRAPHITES FOR Lead acid BATTERIES 9 Specialty graphites for lead acid batteries High-performance, versatile, efficient. We provide SIGRACELL battery additives for lead acid batteries. Highly conductive carbon additives with following advantages: High purity, especially very low levels of metal impurities Excellent wettability Easy to mix into the lead paste Combination with conductive carbon blacks possible All these key features lead to improved Dynamic Charge Acceptance (DCA) and a high cycling stability during high rate partial state of charge. The increased performance in high current applications gives a crucial improvement for lead acid batteries. SGL Group s combination of application-oriented research, extensive knowledge of materials and expertise in process technology make it the partner of choice in carbon components for energy storage. All material development work starts with a well-founded understanding of the physical and chemical principles which determine the material s subsequent use. SGL Group has its own energy laboratory with experienced specialists at its main technology and innovation research center, and works in close cooperation with leading universities and institutes. This allows us to incorporate new findings in the field of electrochemical energy storage directly into our material development. b Redox flow battery test cell in our in-house Energy lab Material data for our SIGRACELL battery additives Typical properties Units Expanded graphite Synthetic graphite GFG20 HP SG2μ SG4μ D₁₀ µm Particle size D₅₀ µm distribution D₉₀ µm Specific surface area BET m2/g Ash content % < 0.1 < 0.05 < 0.05 Cd ppm < 1.0 < 0.1 < 0.1 Cr ppm < 5.0 < 1.0 < 1.0 Cu ppm < 5.0 < 0.5 < 0.5 Selected Fe ppm < 150 < 30 < 30 elements Mn ppm < 5.0 < 0.5 < 0.5 Mo ppm < 0.5 < 0.5 < 0.5 Ni ppm < 5.0 < 2.0 < 2.0 W ppm < 1.0 < 0.3 < 0.3 More detailed parameters like test of lead affinity and water consumption results are available on request.

10 10 Specialty graphites for flow batteries Reliable and easily adaptable to meet the specific requirements. Flow batteries enable energy storage on a scale of kwh to MWh and provide the perfect solution for stationary applications. They are well-suited as temporary storage for grid stabilization, industrial back-up power, integration of renewables such as wind and photovoltaic as well as off-grid power supply for mobile radio transmitters and remote households. The main advantage of flow batteries is that they separate output (MW) and energy (MWh). The two can be adjusted independently of one another and are easily adaptable to the specific requirements at hand SGL Group ranks among the leading manufacturers of specialty graphites and graphite components for redox flow batteries. We have applied our long-term experience and close cooperation with customers to develop special materials and products for energy storage: SIGRACELL battery felts, bipolar plates and endplates. Continuous improvement of our materials has significantly enhanced the performance and service life of our customers flow batteries. Charge / Discharge c Schematic diagram of redox flow battery 1 Membrane 2 Permeable electrode 3 Bipolar plate 4 Storage electrode 5 Electrolyte Specialty graphites for flow batteries Applications SIGRACELL battery felts SIGRACELL bipolar plates and end-plates Permeable electrodes Bipolar plates

11 SPECIALTY GRAPHITEs FOR FLOW BATTERIES 11 Low cell resistivity and high electrolyte permeability are crucial factors for flow battery electrodes. Accordingly, the contact resistivity of the bipolar plate and felt electrode, as well as the permeability of the felt electrode largely depend on surface pressure and felt compression, and can be controlled by the compression rate: As the compression rate increases, resistivity decreases, as does permeability. Conversely, permeability and resistance increase as the compression rate decreases. Inhomogeneity in the battery felt can lead to impermeable areas reducing the overall performance of the system. Therefore SGL Group is continuously working on tighter tolerances for area weight and thickness of our battery felts. This enables our customers to optimize the compression rates to ensure the best battery performance possible. 2 Additional technical information please find in our White Paper: SIGRACELL Carbon Components for Flow Batteries on request. c Flow battery components 1 Ion-exchange membrane 2 SIGRACELL battery felt 3 SIGRACELL bipolar plate 1 3 Relative electrical resistivity of graphite felt Electrolyte permeability of graphite felt electrodes E -10 Electrical resistivity [%] Compression rate [%] Electrolyte permeability [darcy] Compression rate [%] 1.4E E E E E E E E -11 Electrolyte permeability [m 2 ]

12 12 SIGRACELL battery felts Permeable electrodes made of SIGRACELL carbon and graphite felts are the first choice for high-temperature batteries such as nickel-chloride and flow batteries. Our battery felts are used for anodes as well as cathodes. They facilitate an efficient charge exchange between the electrolyte and bipolar plate during battery charging and discharging. This is thanks to a unique combination of electrical conductivity, electrochemical stability, high porosity and good elasticity. c SIGRACELL carbon and graphite felts The sizes we provide are even enough to cover the needs of large-scale redox flow systems. We supply battery felts in standard sizes up to 1350 mm (53") in width in 25 m (82 ft) rolls. Beyond that, we produce carbon and graphite felts in customer-specific dimensions. Moreover we offer activated carbon and graphite felts which increases voltage, charge and energy efficiency. For further information please contact us.

13 SPECIALTY GRAPHITEs FOR ENERGY STORAGE 13 SIGRACELL bipolar plates and end-plates c SIGRACELL bipolar plates made of expanded graphite (TF6/PV15) c SIGRACELL bipolar end-plates made of graphite composite material (F100) The main features that distinguish expanded natural graphite are exceptional resistance to chemicals and good electrical conductivity. Together with high-grade fluoropolymers, our thin, high-density SIGRACELL bipolar plates can be used for a broad spectrum of applications. Thanks to their great resistance to corrosion, our SIGRACELL products are ideally suited for the demanding cell chemistry in battery systems. Redox flow batteries are but one example of the many uses for SIGRACELL plates. For bipolar end-plates as well as further grades please contact us.
