Sodium-Ion Batteries (SIBs) are gaining momentum as cost-effective and sustainable alternatives to Lithium-based systems. With raw materials that are inexpensive and widely available, SIBs have great potential for large-scale energy storage and future electric mobility.
Our Focus: Scalable, Sustainable Materials
Among the promising candidates for large-scale applications are three material classes: Prussian Blue Analogues (PBA), Polyanionic compounds, and layered oxides. Our research focuses on two material classes enabling efficient and safe SIB performance: Polyanions (e.g., NFPP) and Sodium manganese-based layered oxides. Both are produced using precursors that are low-cost, non-toxic, and free from hazardous elements such as Cobalt and Nickel.
Industrially Viable Production Methods
We apply a two-step process combining thermal spray synthesis/drying combined with rotary kiln calcination. This approach not only supports scalable manufacturing but also allows us to fine-tune the composition and process conditions - tailoring the resulting materials to specific application requirements.
A Sustainable Pathway Forward
By focusing on industrial feasibility and environmental responsibility, we provide an economical route to accelerate Sodium-Ion Battery Technology and open the door to large-scale applications in energy storage and mobility.
