Unique silicon-based nano materials making the next generation of lithium-ion batteries both smaller, cleaner and lighter

Significantly Higher Energy Density

Silicon anodes are advanced products. Our new anode materials represent a new and critical platform material for the battery market and can be tailored to your needs.

Cenate’s nano-fenced silicon composite materials offer a substantial increase in energy density and almost completely eliminate carbon emissions during production compared to traditional anode materials.

Introducing silicon into the anode so that the energy density of a battery increases and still lasts for many years is a true challenge. Cenate has after thousands of iterations developed a new, highly efficient and lasting solution to this problem. Our new proprietary materials have characteristics that make them a perfect match for long-lasting silicon anodes with record high energy density.

Value Creation

HIGHER ENERGY DENSITY

1 kg Cenate nano-structured silicon replaces 5-7 kg graphite. Cenate’s new & unique product can increase battery energy density by up to 40%.

LOWER CARBON FOOTPRINT

>93% lowered direct CO2 emissions from production (compared to conventional anode materials) and indirect effects from the increased use of EVs. Likely potential for recycling of our material.

INCREASED PRODUCTION CAPACITY WITH LIMITED INVESTMENTS

The overall capacity of batteries produced in a battery factory increases when Cenate’s drop-in replacement materials are used, leading to a higher total number of GWh produced/yr without requiring significant capital investments.

LOWER BATTERY PRODUCTION COST

The battery production costs decrease on a per kWh basis due to higher output from each battery plant and Cenate’s efficient production process.

SUITABLE BOTH FOR GRAPHITE BASED AND NON-GRAPHITE ANODES

Silicon containing anodes can be classified in two categories; (i) The anodes that use graphite as a starting point and applies silicon around it and (ii) the anodes that are based on completely new micron size particles that are developed from nano silicon particles without the use of graphite. Cenate’s particles are suitable for both these approaches, and is currently also being used by both.

SAFETY

Silicon is a non-toxic material and the most abundant element on earth. Cenate’s silicon-containing anode materials have undergone rigorous testing inhouse and in third-party labs to ensure their safety under normal operating conditions, and have been proven to meet the required safety and quality requirements.

A series of benefits for your new high energy density anode

Our new anode materials represent a new and critical platform material for this market and can be tailored to your needs.

We collaborate closely with some of the world’s best cell manufacturers and are now open for additional partnerships with strong cell makers.

Application Areas

Silicon anode batteries offer high performance capacity as compared to other conventional batteries. The replacement of graphite anode with silicon is expected to be one of the biggest trends in the global battery market.
