This study explores the structural behavior of graphite anodes containing silicon additives in commercial lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) through detailed X-ray and neutron powder diffraction analyses. Silicon is increasingly utilized in advanced LIB anodes due to its potential to significantly increase energy capacity. However, its substantial volume expansion and amorphization during lithiation, complicate direct observation of lithium redistribution within the anode via diffraction techniques. Nonetheless, an indirect structural response linked to the lithiation of silicon was identified, indicated by a delayed lithium intercalation into the graphite structure. Furthermore, aging effects on high-silicon-content anodes were explored, showing the role of silicon in accelerating electrode degradation over time. These findings enhance our understanding of the complex relationship between the silicon content in the anode, structural stability, and lithium transport in advanced LIBs.
