C-BATT, a joint venture between US lithium-ion battery components producer X-BATT and carbon and graphite products manufacturer CONSOL Innovations, has developed its US-sourced Obsidia high-capacity battery anode material, which is designed to increase battery energy density and cycle life.
Silicon-carbon-based Obsidia and its blends hold more lithium per gram than graphite. In addition to its performance advantages, Obsidia is designed to be cost-competitive at a price point that meets the needs of commercial and consumer markets, C-BATT said.
C-BATT is developing Obsidia at its battery lab in Oviedo, Florida, just outside the University of Central Florida.
