  • High voltage cathode materials for non-aqueous ammonia based
    Patent number: 12494494
    Abstract: Novel, high voltage cathode active materials for non-aqueous ammonia based primary and reserve batteries are described therein, as well as non-aqueous electrolytes supporting high voltage, and various anodes, separators and cell constructions are disclosed. Said materials provide higher power output at low temperatures over prior art ammonia based batteries.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 9, 2021
    Date of Patent: December 9, 2025
    Assignee: MAXPOWER, INC.
    Inventors: Lin-Shu Du, Natalie Aulicino, Art Driedger, James Pastore, Giuseppe Di Benedetto, Jeff Swank
  • Non-aqueous ammonia electrolytes for lithium anode based primary and reserve batteries
    Patent number: 12494509
    Abstract: Novel, non-aqueous, high salt concentration ammonia based electrolytes, compatible with lithium based anodes are described therein. Said electrolytes are supporting higher voltage provided by novel cathodes and lithium based anodes, which results in high power density batteries over prior art. Various cathodes, separators and cell constructions are also disclosed.
