CNM Technologies | Enabling metal anode batteries by modifying the anode & separator interfaces with Carbon Nanomembranes
Albert Schnieders | 2023
To overcome the limitations of lithium-ion batteries, new battery technologies, such as lithium and beyond lithium metal, are being investigated. However, these solutions often suffer from dendrite growth or surface passivation at the metal anode site. Carbon nanomembranes (CNMs) are an electrically insulting 2D nanomaterial that has shown its ability to conduct lithium ions and promote homogeneous ion deposition when used in conjunction with conventional separators. These properties open the possibility of using CNMs as a promising material to enable metal anodes batteries, not only by modifying the interface of separators but also of metal anodes by acting as an artificial solid electrolyte interface to prevent dendrite growth. We will discuss in this presentation the technical and economic potential of these possibilities of CNMs in next-generation batteries.
Explore the following in this session:
The transition to metal anode batteries and the challenges of excessive dendrite growth.
How Carbon Nanomembranes (CNMs) can prevent dendrite build-up in metal batteries.
The high potential of CNMs when combined with standard separators in metal-based battery tests.
