Now you can charge your phone’s battery 5x faster than before and Graphene Balls in Li-on batteries would ensure this rapid charging, all thanks to Samsung’s research unit.
The purpose behind Samsung’s this effort was replacement of the Lithium-ion batteries that usually take an hour to charge while the new Li-ion battery by Samsung with Graphene balls will charge your phone in only 12 minutes.
The South Korean company Samsung’s research unit has developed Graphene balls to incorporate into lithium-ion shortly known as li-on battery that can help you charge your mobile battery 5x times faster than existing ones.

The material Graphene has been composed of an ultra-thin layer of carbon. This carbon layer is just one atom thick which is two hundred times stronger than steel.
The purpose behind Samsung’s this effort was replacement of the Lithium-ion batteries that usually take an hour to charge while the new Li-ion battery by Samsung with Graphene balls will charge your phone in only 12 minutes.
It should not be ruled out that the new development must have had strong link with disastrous Samsung Note 7 fiasco that had virtually dishonored the giant company a year ago.
Samsung, regarding the issue of Note 7 had to halt the production and recall up to 2.5 million devices from customers to replace them.
How does the battery work?
Samsung has made this battery by synthesizing a Graphene ball using silica and after that to use the synthetic material for the anode and cathode of lithium-ion batteries that consequences in pacing up the charging speed by 45 %.
The South Korean company’s success in this regard is not the only achievement for Samsung, the company has also confirmed that with the help of Graphene balls the temperature can be kept below 60 degrees. And this temperature control system will prevent the battery from overheating.
Wait a minute, don’t go much excited because there is no confirmation whether this battery will go into mass production or not since the company has already made mind for featuring solid-state batteries in its smartphones in 2019 — an attempt to address safety concerns over Lithium-ion batteries.
Solid state batteries are more better than Li-ion batteries, however, cost of manufacturing these batteries is still higher as compared to the latter one.
Whether, the company will overcome the challenge of commercializing this battery in the next 24 months or not? time will tell it better. However, one thing is clear that Samsung is taking extreme measures for manufacturing & choice of a battery for its devices.
