Toshiba develop better battery tech using TiO2 / Niobium Anode.supports ultra rapid recharging.

The new battery also offers high energy density and ultra-rapid recharging characteristics, and its titanium niobium oxide anode is much less likely to experience lithium metal deposition during ultra-rapid recharging or recharging in cold conditions—a cause of battery degradation and internal short circuiting.

Toshiba’s current SCiB™ employs a lithium titanium oxide anode, and is known for excellent operating characteristics in respect of safety, long life and rapid charging. It has found wide use in vehicles and industrial and infrastructure applications, including automobiles, buses, railroad cars, elevators and power plants. The high energy density of the battery, and its rapid recharging, have made important contributions to enhancing the convenience and promoting the spread of EV.

Building on this heritage, Toshiba has developed a proprietary method for synthesizing and disarranging crystals of titanium niobium oxide and storing lithium ions more efficiently in the crystal structure. The anode of the next-generation SCiB™ realized through this approach has double times the capacity of the anode of current lithium-ion batteries.

“We are very excited by the potential of the new titanium niobium oxide anode and the next-generation SCiB™,” said Dr. Osamu Hori, Director of Corporate Research & Development Center at Toshiba Corporation. “Rather than an incremental improvement, this is a game changing advance that will make a significant difference to the range and performance of EV. We will continue to improve the battery’s performance and aim to put the next-generation SCiB™ into practical application in fiscal year 2019.”

Rigorous testing of a 50Ah prototype of the new battery has confirmed that it retains the long life cycle, low-temperature operation, excellent safety and rapid recharging characteristics of the current SCiB™. The energy density by volume of battery is twice that of the current SCiB™. The next-generation SCiB™ maintains over 90% of its initial capacity after being put through 5,000 charge/discharge cycles, and ultra-rapid recharging can be done in cold conditions, with temperatures as low as minus 10oC, in only ten minutes.

Toshiba will continue to develop higher energy density batteries that extend the range of EVs and support ultra-rapid recharging, and aims to commercialize the next-generation SCiB™ in fiscal year 2019.

Part of the research work on the next-generation SCiBTM was subsidized by Japan’s New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO).

It really is fascinating.

Richie is like watching the Inbetweeners....cringe inducing but i cant stop hoping he posts again...its so rewarding to listen to this tool make a bigger yas out of himself....his 2p short must have kicked in?Imaginary friends like imaginary positions lads

[presto77] 09/10/2017 16:32

So why you posting on advfn?

[shutittrev] 09/10/2017 16:20

You haven't got any pals, smalltime.

[airs999] 08/10/2017 11:02

Topped up £37,500 cash on Friday. All is good in the blue camp

[moreminer] 08/10/2017 09:56

Richie, Have nice Sunday you idiot.

[minder5] 08/10/2017 09:03

1) The EIA hasn't been submitted yet.
2) SIA similarly hasn't been submitted yet.
3) Zero
4) Yes
5) All in good time.

[richie666] 08/10/2017 08:04

5 questions for the bulls

1. Where is the EIA approval and why is it taking so long?
2. Ditto re the SIA?
3. What probability u put on a new placing in the next few months?
4. Do u think St Brides and SPangel still hold stock?
5. Why has the resource not yet been moved from the inferred status to the all important measured?

Shavian - many thanks for that. I came across an article on TV some months ago whereby when the vertical takeoff/landing planes took off/landed on the deck of the new aircraft carrier, the deck coating melted with the thrust.

The problem was solved by adding titanium to the coating!

[bjlk] 06/10/2017 08:25

Good rummaging shavian... that's good news!

[shavian] 06/10/2017 07:33

Heads up for another TiO2 application: a big one!




Edit: IMO this is potentially bad news for the increasingly noisy fans of graphite in the battery technology space, such as ALBA (see post 1811 - thank you Shakeypremis). So far the potential end-user industries for Pituffik's output have been pigment and aerospace. Adding battery tech to this list is a potentially difersifying game-changer :0)

Bought some traders today, good volume and a price rise usually mean's an announcement is due next day or two.
Let's see if I end up with egg on my face.

Our Leader is at TiO2 World Summit in Spain, on the list of speakers at least.
This is the big event for the Pigments industry too, so all the big players in the space are there. From the big make up producers, to Metal production.
Plus all the relevant Diggers & processors.

See: hxxp://www.pigmentmarkets.com/tio2/speakers

Or google TiO2 World Summit, Alicante.

Regards,
R.

No worries mate.

[shutittrev] 02/10/2017 11:28

Tilly, with respect, is it really necessary to clutter up this thread with nonsense relating to Mr Jennings. Could you PM him in future? Happy to discuss.

[shutittrev] 02/10/2017 11:23

Nice one aravali, I am currently in top level negotiations trying to rearrange my day shift at my local poundshop. Hopefully see you there.

[aravali] 02/10/2017 11:09

i'll be there shutittrev

[tilly99] 02/10/2017 10:58

Richie U like flow?I'm longSorry OTopic but can you send me the research Plse?Best Tilly

[shutittrev] 02/10/2017 10:36

The people who represent me have intelligence which indicates that forces loyal to Field Marshal Rodney Mcillree will be massing at the Washington Mayfair Hotel, Curzon Street, London on the 16th October, 10.00 am. (Map coordinates: Latitude N 51.50717, Longitude W 0.14611)
Will any troops on here be in attendance? Just asking like.

[shakeypremis] 01/10/2017 07:23

Good points guys, cheers.
