Microcrystalline graphite (MG) is a major form of natural graphite; the other two forms are flake graphite and vein graphite. In the literature, MG is occasionally referred to as "amorphous" graphite [1].However, the term "amorphous" is inaccurate because the crystallites within MG are highly crystallized; these crystallites are so small (<1 μm) that they have to be
Sun et al. 18 used microcrystalline graphite (MG) as the host material to synthesize FeCl 3-GICs. MG is a cost-effective graphite resource consisting of microcrystals of various sizes under 1 micrometer. It was seen that MG as a host material resulted in FeCl 3-GICs with higher tap density and gravimetric capacity than natural graphite flakes as a host material.

Compared with lamellar graphite, microcrystalline graphite has smaller grain size and higher disorder degree, and the particles are isotropic, so the lithium ion diffusion performance of microcrystalline graphite is higher in theory [ 4, 5 ]. It is an ideal raw material for anode materials for lithium-ion batteries.
Natural microcrystalline graphite (MG), one of the three main graphite types (lump graphite, microcrystalline graphite and flake graphite) based on the physical appearances, is a collection of randomly orientated graphite micro-crystallite, which has enormous natural reserves in China , , .
In the microcrystalline graphite concentrate purified by flotation, some impurities are impregnated in the graphite in the form of very fine particles, which cannot be completely dissociated, so only the most high-carbon products can be obtained. However, flotation process does not corrode the equipment and has a low cost.
Compared with the AC impedance curve of PMG1 and PMG2, the impedance of microcrystalline graphite after flotation is much higher than that of microcrystalline graphite after pickling, indicating that the diffusion ability of lithium ion in electrode materials decreases with the increase of the purity of microcrystalline graphite.
