Ni NMA outperforms both NMC and NCA and only slightly trails NMCAM and a commercial cathode after 1000 deep cycles. Manthiram, Li and former postdoctoral researcher Evan Erickson worked with UT’s Office of Technology Commercialization to form a startup called TexPower to bring the technology to market. —Wangda Li.

Nonetheless, several technical challenges still limit its commercialization. The major problem of Si anodes is their drastic volume changes during deep cycling, which often leads to the severe pulverization, electrical contact loss, unstable solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI), and subsequent poor electrochemical cycling reversibility.

The 12V version can be used in either military or in commercial starting/deep cycle applications. Earlier this year, prototypes of the Ultanium 6T 12 volt battery underwent successful hot and cold weather testing on commercial Class 8 highway delivery trucks in a project funded by the US Army TARDEC and CALSTART.

A g -1 , the composite electrode exhibited a relatively stable reversible lithium capacity of 1,600 mAh g -1 for 1,000 deep cycles based on the weight of only Si. The electrode can be continuously deep cycled up to 5,000 times without significant capacity decay. Click to enlarge. At a charge/discharge current of 1.0
