Every day we are surrounded by household items that are powered by
lithium Ion batteries, including your cell phones, and your laptop computers. If
a lithium-ion battery gets shot off, the energy gets released suddenly causing
temperature to rise rapidly hundreds of degrees in milliseconds leading to the
battery to catch on fire.
Take the electric cars for example; there are thousands of lithium-Ion batteries that make up the battery pack. If they all catch on fire at the same time, the explosion is massive.
They are so much concern about the lithium-ion batteries igniting that the U.S. has banned transporting them in cargo and passenger flights.

3 years ago, we challenged Nanotech Energy to provide us the
safest energy battery chemistry, non-flammable, and extremely safe.
Dr
Jack Kavanaugh - CEO and Chairman, Nanotech Energy Inc:
We saw the challenge and created batteries that are safe, not just
safer, last longer, charge faster and we manufacture in the United States.
Dr,
Richard Kaner, Ph.D. - UCLA Distinguished Professor of Chemistry and Materials,
Science and Technology:
Amazingly we use graphite, the material found in ordinary pencil
to build our batteries. This is the
miraculous structure of graphite and the top layer is known as graphene. It is a hundred
times stronger than steel.
We took the graphene and we used it as the building block to
construct our safe non-inflammable batteries.
Maher
Ei-Kady, Ph.D. - Inventor Cto, Nanotech Energy, Inc:
We made the battery safe by changing the internal structure of the
battery and replacing the traditional electrolyte with another one that is non-inflammable but is also inexpensive, easy to manufacture and is practical for
all weather conditions.
In the electrolyte flame test, we placed two B3 dishes, and side by
side poured the traditional lithium electrolyte, and the nanotech energy the electrolyte in the other dish even took the blue torch to the two liquids. As
you can see traditional lithium-ion electrolyte ignites the flame while the
nanotech energy electrolyte remains intact.
Scott
Laine, Coo Nanotech Energy, Inc:
Now that you see what happens with the standard lithium-ion battery
you find in cars electronics and computers where they catch on the fire You see
now when we do the same thing with Nanotech battery, our battery will not catch
on fire, it will dead shot and die but won’t catch on fire.
This whole little battery is still hot from the dead shot itself
but overall the battery is still intact, no flame no fire, no explosion.
Brian
Mc Very, Ph.D.- Co-Inventor UCLA Scientist:
In addition to the break though, our batteries with top
performances in terms of how long you
use it before charging, how fast can you charge and discharge the batteries
and how many times you can recharge the battery with them so working.
Andreas
Hintennach, Ph.D.- Daimler-Mercedes Benz, Global Head of Battery Research:
Usually, you sacrifice
performances once you develop extremely
safe chemistries. At Nanotech energy we have extremely safe chemistries that provide
high performance now. It the first time that we have extremely safe cells and us
are very pleased about that
Dr.
Jack Kavanaugh, Ceo, and Chairman, Nanotech Company
In the next year, we will release an environmentally friendly the battery that actually charge 18 times faster than anything is up
to now.
We believe that this will revolutionize your electrical devices.
