Nano One Successfully Completes High Voltage Spinel Project
January 11 2018 - 8:32AM
Dr. Stephen Campbell, Principal Scientist at Nano One
(TSX-V:NNO) (Frankfurt:LBMB) (OTC:NNOMF), today announced that
Nano One has successfully completed an 18 month project developing
cobalt free High Voltage Spinel (HVS) cathode material for lithium
ion batteries, with the support of the National Research Council of
Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program (NRC IRAP). HVS is
suited to fast charging and high power applications and is a
candidate cathode material in next generation solid state lithium
ion batteries for automotive, consumer electronics and energy
storage applications.
“We have met our objectives and made a number of
significant breakthroughs,” said Dr. Elahe Talaie, Senior Scientist
and HVS team lead with Nano One. “Battery performance is excellent
when our HVS is tested with lithium, graphite and lithium titanium
oxide anodes (LTO). As previously communicated, our innovative
process can control particle size and output voltage; and it
stabilizes HVS for high temperature applications. All of these
advances are critical to battery manufacturers. The project has led
to two patent applications and HVS production is now ready for
demonstration at pilot scale.”
Nano One can make HVS and other high performance
cathodes using lithium carbonate or hydroxide, giving its process
an advantage over manufacturing methods constrained to costly
lithium hydroxide. HVS differs from other cathodes because it is
made from lithium, manganese and nickel, without the high cost and
supply chain risk of cobalt. Nano One can control HVS particle size
to tailor it for energy storage or power applications and its
higher voltage enables simpler energy management systems and
delivers increased power at high rates of discharge.
Dr. Campbell added, “Higher volume samples are
being made in our pilot and we look forward to beginning HVS
evaluations with commercial interests in the new year”.

About Nano One:
Nano One Materials Corp (“Nano One” or “the
Company”) is developing patented technology for the low-cost
production of high performance battery materials used in electric
vehicles, energy storage, consumer electronics and next generation
batteries. The processing technology addresses fundamental supply
chain constraints by enabling wider raw materials specifications
for use in lithium ion batteries. The process can be configured for
a range of different nanostructured materials and has the
flexibility to shift with emerging and future battery market trends
and a diverse range of other growth opportunities. The novel
three-stage process uses equipment common to industry and Nano One
has built a pilot plant to demonstrate high volume production and
to optimize its technology across a range of materials. This
pilot plant program is being funded with the assistance and support
of the Government of Canada through Sustainable Development
Technology Canada (SDTC) and the Automotive Supplier Innovation
Program (ASIP) a program of Innovation, Science and Economic
Development Canada (ISED). Nano One also receives financial support
from the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research
Assistance Program (NRC IRAP). Nano One’s mission is to establish
its patented technology as a leading platform for the global
production of a new generation of nanostructured composite
materials. For more information, please visit www.nanoone.ca
