This website uses Google Analytics, a web analysis service of Google Ireland Limited. If the person responsible for data processing on this website is located outside the European Economic Area or Switzerland, Google Analytics data processing is carried out by Google LLC. Google LLC and Google Ireland Limited are hereinafter referred to as "Google".
With the statistics obtained, we can improve our offer and make it more interesting for you as a user. This website also uses Google Analytics for a cross-device analysis of visitor flows, which is carried out via a user ID. If you have a Google user account, you can deactivate the cross-device analysis of your usage in the settings there under "My data", "Personal data".
The legal basis for the use of Google Analytics is Art. 6 para. 1 sentence 1 lit. f DS-GVO. The IP address transmitted by your browser within the framework of Google Analytics is not merged with other data from Google. We would like to point out that on this website Google Analytics has been extended by the code "_anonymizeIp();" in order to ensure anonymous recording of IP addresses. This means that IP addresses are further processed in a shortened form, thus excluding the possibility of personal references. If the data collected about you contains a personal reference, this is immediately excluded and the personal data is immediately deleted.
Only in exceptional cases is the full IP address transferred to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. On behalf of the operator of this website, Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, to compile reports on the website activities and to provide further services to the website operator in connection with the use of the website and the Internet. For the exceptional cases in which personal data is transferred to the USA, Google has subjected itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield, https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US- Framework.

Reducing the resistance of the battery leads to lower heat generation during charging and discharging. This decreases the risk for thermal runaways and makes cells with Aligned Graphite® safer. In addition, aligning the graphite particles pushes the onset of lithium plating, a dangerous side process that happens during fast charging to higher charging rates.
The Aligned Graphite® Technology, aligns the graphite particles in the negative electrodes. This shortens the diffusion paths of the lithium-ions and thereby reduces the cell resistance. This has a direct impact on the heat generation within the cell upon charging or discharging. Heat generation can be reduced by up to 40%.
By aligning the graphite particles in the negative electrode the diffusion paths are shortened. This allows for higher charging rates. In fact the Aligned Graphite® Technology can cut charging times in half.

The Aligned Graphite ® Technology can be easily implemented to match production equipment of varying sizes. The Aligned Graphite ® fabrication technology does not reduce production speed. This facilitates scaling.
Battrion’s production process is fully compatible with todays electrode production speeds. In addition, we are working on reaching the production speeds of tomorrow.

The Aligned Graphite® Technology allows to control the orientation of flake graphite particles. Orienting the flakes vertically leads to short effective lithium transport distances and therefore to very high charging currents without degradation.
