Abstract: CAMX Power proposes to demonstrate a novel Li alloying anode architecture implemented in high specific energy Li-ion cells employing CAMX Power's high capacity cathode material CAM-7TM and a broad temperature range electrolyte capable of meeting naval aircraft performance and life targets. In Phase I, we will carry out initial system demonstration and anode architecture optimization in coin cells and then demonstrate that the proposed system can meet performance requirements in pouch cells. Additional cycle and calendar life testing will be carried out during the Phase I Option suggesting further directions for optimization of system components and scale-up to multi-Ah cells during Phase II.
Benefits: This SBIR program will demonstrate a Li-ion battery capable of high specific energy, extended temperature range operation, and long life making it ideally suited for naval aircraft and other DOD applications. In addition, demonstration of high energy density will make this system attractive for the next generation of commercial portable power and automotive applications.
