Small Business Innovation Research/Small Business Tech Transfer
Advanced Nanostructured Cathode for Ultra High Specific Energy Lithium Ion Batteries, Phase I
Project Introduction
Integrate advanced nanotechnology with energy storage technology to develop advanced cathode materials for use in Li-ion batteries while maintaining a high level of safety, stability, and cycle life, allowing the cathodes to be tailored to provide very high specific energy or very high specific power depending on the relative ratio of the three components-active material, current conductors/collectors, and binders, thus maximizing specific energy (Wh/kg) and energy density (Wh/l).
