Seeo’s cell design couples a solid lithium metal anode with a conventional porous lithium iron phosphate cathode and Seeo’s nanostructured solid polymer electrolyte (“DryLite”). Lithium metal is an ideal anode material for rechargeable Li batteries. One approach to a solid-state electrolyte is the use of a solid polymer.

Consumption of lithium in rechargeable batteries by end use, 2012-2017, kt LCE. Batteries accounted for 27% of global lithium consumption in 2012, up from 15% in 2007 and 8% in 2002. The lithium industry is therefore becoming more reliant on rechargeable batteries to sustain high rates of future demand growth, Roskill concludes.
