Silicon-graphene-graphite composite

A process of manufacturing a silicon-graphene-graphite composite for a Silicon-based anode of a lithium-ion battery, including bringing together silicon particles with a particle size distribution Dabove 100 nm and an exfoliatable graphene-based material in a first organic solvent, the weight ratio of silicon to exfoliatable graphene-based material being between 1.5 and 9, mixing at at least 500 rpm for at least 20 min so as to mill the silicon particles into nanoparticles, exfoliate at least a part of the exfoliatable graphene-based material into graphene and form a silicon-graphene composite, bringing together the silicon-graphene composite and graphite, the weight ratio of carbon to silicon being between 1.5 and 19 and the viscosity being between 0.025 and 160 Pa·s at 1 sshear rate, and mixing for at least 2 min so as to form a silicon-graphene-graphite composite.
