Benefits of technology

This patented new type of polymeric composition used in making electric conductors or resistive elements improves their properties by controllably changing its electrical characteristics at specific temperatures. It also allows for better control over how much energy it generates during charging and discharges compared to previous methods that had lower curie temperatures (approaching 75-80%). Overall this technology helps make sure things are done safely while still producing high power density from lithiated carbon anode materials such as LiCoO2 cathodes.

Problems solved by technology

This patented technical problem addressed in this patents relates to improving the safety properties of Lithium ion batteries due to excessive temperatures caused during use that could potentially damage them overheating accidental fires or explode under severe situations.
