Nanoramic’s proprietary Neocarbonix® technology breaks down key barriers to mass electrification, targeting dramatic improvements in cost, performance, and sustainability of batteries. The technology is a PFAS (“forever chemical”)-free solution for lithium-ion batteries and eliminates the need for conventional NMP solvents, allowing for sustainable solvent alternatives for improved manufacturing worker safety. Neocarbonix® offers a powerful and practical solution for battery manufacturers to stay ahead of the curve and be at the forefront of environmentally friendly battery manufacturing. It drops into existing manufacturing lines for rapid adoption under Nanoramic’s flexible and asset-light business model.
Neocarbonix® is fundamentally a force multiplier – it is designed to replace conventional binders in battery electrodes and targets far-reaching improvements in battery cost, energy density, power, fast charging, worker safety, manufacturing energy consumption, and supply chain security. As a result, Neocarbonix® can offer a comprehensive solution to the evolving challenges facing all battery-powered applications and industries such as mobility, stationary storage, mobile devices, and more. To bring this transformative technology to market, Nanoramic has established strategic partnerships with some of the world’s largest automotive OEMs, consumer electronics companies, and battery manufacturers.
“Innovations in battery technology are a key priority in our investment strategy, including our collaboration with Nanoramic targeting advances in the sustainability, cost and efficiency of battery manufacturing,” said Anirvan Coomer, Managing Director of GM Ventures.
“Catalus is proud to co-lead this financing and support Nanoramic’s mission to revolutionize the energy storage industry with their innovative Neocarbonix® technology.
