Benefits of Nexeon technology
Nexeon’s silicon anode Li-ion battery technology has numerous applications, and the ‘drop-in’ approach offers significant benefits to battery manufacturers and end users: ![]()
CAPACITY
- Allows cell capacity to be increased by 30-40% using a standard cathode
- Provides far higher capacity than any other battery system
CYCLE LIFE
- Increased longevity of battery
- Consistent performance over 300+ cycles
COST
- Lower cost to manufacture using less material
- Low switching cost through simple integration of Nexeon’s silicon anode into existing manufacturing processes
FORM FACTOR
- Smaller, lighter cells allowing innovative product design potential
SAFETY
- Successful performance in thermal exposure, overcharge and external short circuit tests on prototype Li-ion cells
- Delivers a higher safety margin at a given capacity for silicon material (buffer capacity)
COMPATIBILITY WITH CURRENT MANUFACTURING PROCESSES
- ‘Drop-in’ approach minimises disruption to existing manufacturing process
- Silicon anode batteries operate at the same voltage as existing Li-ion batteries
- Compatibilty with present electronic device designs
- Using less material within the battery future-proofs the technology providing the opportunity for manufacturers to make improvements to the design of the cell
SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
- Lighter batteries with more power and less charging required will overcome a key limitation of electric transport
- Nexeon’s increased Li-ion battery capacity represents a huge leap forward in providing excellent energy storage systems to increase the effectiveness of sustainable energy such as wind or photovoltaics
The benefits for end users of this technology are potentially huge, with applications across a vast range of industries and products.
