volt lithium-ion batteries, consistent with USABC goals. The competitively bid contract award is co-funded by the US Department of Energy (DOE) and includes a 50% cost-share by NOHMs. The company is also commercializing its electrolyte work (NanoLyte) for use by other manufacturers with a variety of cathode chemistries (e.g.,

The researchers also demonstrated that their hybrid electrolyte should be stable with two of the most promising next-generation cathode candidates that are being developed, sulfur and high-voltage cathodes such as lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide. —Nitash Balsara.
