C-BATT Utilizes Award-Winning Resin Technology
X-BATT’s proprietary resin technology recognized at International Battery Seminar and Exhibit
Orlando, FL (October 2024) – C-BATT, a joint venture between X-BATT® and CONSOL Innovations, celebrates an important industry recognition of its core technology. The International Battery Seminar and Exhibit selected X-BATT’s proprietary resin technology as the winner of Best Poster at its 2024 meeting.
This Polymer Derived Ceramic technology is a key part of C-BATT’s innovative anode material, Obsidia™. The silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) based material has been under development for over a decade and has been incorporated by C-BATT as a key component of its high-capacity anode material for some time.
“Recognition of the X-BATT material system at the core of our anode material by the International Battery Seminar and Exhibit is an exciting validation of our technical path, which promises more energy density without the very high costs of other silicon-based anode materials,” said Josh McConkey, the director of commercialization at C-BATT.
The Obsidia™ material is in the advanced stages of commercial development, generating interest from multiple EV OEMs as well as other military and industrial partners.
More information about the technical and economic benefits of this unique material are set to be released by C-BATT soon.
