Although a very realistic model for lithium intercalation in graphitic materials is proposed since many years [16], the lithium insertion mechanism in disordered carbons remains still not completely documented. The main reason is the complex structure-nanotexture of these carbons which practically makes impossible to propose a unique model applicable for all the materials. Many papers try to interpret the values of reversible capacity in these carbons and to identify the kinds of sites occupied by lithium.
