VARTA Microbattery benefits from findings in project NanoPoLiBat
In 2006 VARTA Microbattery began together with the Technical University Graz the project NanoPoLiBat. Further exciting partners from Europe were also involved such as the Materials Science Institute Barcelona, Fraunhofer Institut für Silicatforschung and the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique. The task of VARTA Microbattery was to develop the research into practice.
The insertion of nano technology in Lithium-Ion batteries was the target of the project. Beneficial expertise for a new battery generation could be achieved by VARTA Microbattery now. Energy content, capacity and safety of Lithium-Ion batteries could be improved by the use of nano technology. Enormous future potential comes from basing the anode material for negative electrodes on silicium, which is able to absorb up to ten times more charging compared with materials used up until now. Samples could be built with new components which would have an 80% increased energy content.
The project NanoPoLiBat was completed successfully quite recently and VARTA Microbattery will include the patented improvements into more efficient Lithium-Ion batteries in the future.
