Abstract

A review of carbon black highlights the different manufacturing processes, key characteristics, and applications. The review provides a detailed account of various common industrial production methods and alternative technologies for carbon black production. The alternative and emerging technologies to produce carbon black are also discussed in this review. The common characteristics of carbon black, such as surface area and particle size, are summarized for various types of carbon black, including their potential modification to improve their properties. A thorough literature study on the carbon black application was conducted by screening relevant journals from the Web of Science (WOS) database to gather insights into its diverse applications. The related number of yearly publications, countries involved with the publications, and related applications of carbon black were extracted from the database. The potential applications of carbon black are summarized in this review. This review specifically focuses on the application of carbon black in energy storage, especially in battery applications. In addition, some future perspectives, challenges, and limitations of carbon black application in energy storage are also discussed. This overview provides a wide perspective of carbon black utilization in various applications based on its common properties, especially in energy storage applications.
