Det blir jo spennende. Burde komme litt info som kan være relevant for hva Rec sin posisjon i alt dette kan bli. Hvertfall indirekte.

Er vi heldige blir leverandørindustrien til batteri nevnt og Rec spesifikt.

ROUNDTABLE 2: The Future Direction of the Binder Market in the Wake of the Silicon Anode

Manuel Wieser, Head of Energy Division, AnteoTech
Silicon anode active material market is set to quadruple from 2020 to 2030
Performance requirements for anode binders are changing rapidly (considering low to high silicon content anode designs)
Binder material evolution: SBR functionalization, vs. PAA derivatization vs. return to organic solvent-based binders?
Surface chemistry challenge: Various silicon anode systems with different surface properties (SiOx, micro-silicon, silicon-carbon composites,…)
Greater diversification in future binder market or is one-size fits it all possible?​

AT ANTEOTECH ENERGY WE ARE WORKING TO MEET EVER-INCREASING PERFORMANCE DEMANDS FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLES, ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS AND CONSUMER ELECTRONICS.
We aim to increase the anode’s storage capacity and allow lithium ion batteries to be manufactured cost effectively, lighter and more compact by using a proprietary nanotechnology platform featuring a unique suite of multi-functional compounds used to create high value anode components.

At Anteotech we have developed a scalable silicon composite that will allow for the simple integration of larger quantities of silicon into the anode driving up storage capacity. Complementary to the silicon composite as the active material, our cross-linked binder program supports silicon anode development to further drive battery performance.

SOLID-STATE STRATEGIES
1:30 pm Innovations in Scalable Electrode Processing for
Thiophosphate-Based All-Solid-State-Batteries
Felix Hippauf, PhD, Battery Scientist, Center for Battery Research,
Fraunhofer Institute for Material & Beam Technology
In this lecture, scalable concepts for positive and negative high energy
electrodes are presented. A dry process is shown that replaces slurrybased
binders by a fibrous PTFE binder and reduces the binder amount
to an absolute minimum. Furthermore, we combined the solid-state
technology with PVD-based, scalable silicon anode concepts developed
at Fraunhofer IWS.

Wow, spennede tider! Og tenk om dette skulle slå til..

Noen som kan være brydd med å dra et kort resymé av hva vi vet om kontakten Sila og RECSI til nå?

I korthet så er dette hva jeg mener å ha plukket opp.. Sila er allerede en (mindre) kunde av RECSI, er de ikke? Om jeg husker rett så har de fått levert mindre "prøvemengder" som er anvendt til forskningen?

Og så fikk nylig selskapet en stor finansiering på plass nylig, var det 6 milliarder som ble nevnt her? Vet vi at de (også) har tenkt å lokalisere seg i USA, eller er dette spekulasjoner?

Group 14 får mye plass på wiki siden nå:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium–silicon_battery

"Silicon carbon composite anodes were first reported in 2002 by Yoshio[7] Studies of these composite materials has shown that the capacities are a weighted average of the two end members (graphite and silicon). On cycling, electronic isolation of the silicon particles tends to occur with the capacity falling off to the capacity of the graphite component. This effect has been tempered using alternative synthetic methodologies or morphologies that can be created to help maintain contact with the current collector. This has been identified in studies involving grown silicon nanowires that are chemical bonded to the metal current collector by alloy formation. Sample production of batteries using a silicon nanowire-graphite composite electrode were produced by Amprius in 2014.[8] The same company claims to have sold several hundred thousand of these batteries as of 2014.[9] In 2016, Stanford University researchers presented a method of encapsulating silicon microparticles in a graphene shell, which confines fractured particles and also acts as a stable solid electrolyte interphase layer. These microparticles reached an energy density of 3,300 mAh/g.[10]

In 2015, Tesla founder Elon Musk claimed that silicon in Model S batteries increased the car’s range by 6%.[11]

As of 2018, products by startups Sila Nanotechnologies, Global Graphene Group, Enovix, Enevate, Group14 Technologies and others were undergoing tests by the battery manufacturers, car companies, and consumer-electronics companies. Sila clients include BMW and Amperex Technology, battery supplier to companies including Apple and Samsung. BMW plans to incorporate Sila technology by 2023 and increase battery-pack capacity by 10-15%. [12] [13] [14] As of 2021, Enovix was the first company to ship finished silicon anode batteries to end customers.[15]

Group14 Technologies has patented a silicon-carbon composite SCC55™, which enables 50% more in fully lithiated volumetric energy density than graphite used in conventional lithium-ion battery anodes. Group14 is backed by Amperex Technology Limited, Showa Denko and SK materials. [16] [17]"


On September 22, 2020, Tesla revealed its plans for gradually increasing the amounts of silicon in its future batteries, focusing on the anodes. Tesla's approach is to encapsulate the silicon particles with an elastic, ion-permeable coating. In this way, the silicon-swelling concern is accommodated, thereby enabling the desired increase in battery capacity to be achieved. Overall battery life expectancy is expected to remain unimpacted by this change. The reason for the gradual (instead of sudden) increases in silicon usage is to enable testing and confirmation of the stepwise changes

Tja.. men det er vel ikke produskonskapasitet nok til å tilfredsstille både Group 14 og sila på ML?
De må i tilfelle lage noen reaktorer til, slik at de kan øke kapasiteten.

Når TT sier de forhandler med flere batteriprodusenter, så er det sannsynlig at Sila er en av dem. Sila logoen har vært framme på en av kvartalspresentasjonene, og de er allerede en liten kunde av RECsi i form av at de har forsket med RECsi sine produkter fra ML.

Spennende tider?

Tror Kina ligger tynt an i sol- og batteriindustrien som bygges i US. Dette er for sentralt i 'Made in America'.

Biden-Harris Administration Commits to Investing in American Workers and Companies
Today, while many American businesses are on the brink of having to close their doors because of the crises that our country faces, President Biden will sign an Executive Order to support manufacturers, businesses, and workers to ensure that our future is made in all of America by all of America’s workers.
Biden is focused on creating the clean energy economy of the future with millions of solar and wind power jobs that are safer, healthier and pay very competitively. He recognizes the coal industry had an important role to play in the 20th century, but he knows his job is not to prop up old and dying industries of the past. Instead, we need to invest in new technologies that make our environment cleaner and our economy stronger.

Hva tenker dere om Lithium anoder vs silicon anoder?

«Lithium-metal batteries substitute heavy graphite in the anode with a lighter metal to cut down on weight, and thus improve gravimetric energy density. Swapping graphite from the anode renders conventional electrolytes unusable, however. A problem that Cuberg claims to have solved with its electrolyte technology that provides stability comparable to that offered by solid-state batteries in its devices.»

Cuberg er et firma som mener at de kan levere det:

https://cuberg.net/product/?fbclid=IwAR1qGmV8x5A8HVJzCFrSbG4H62nPRLgcyuXpdtH0bc14WP1ca9aI7xVEFUY

De ble nylig kjøpt opp av den svenske batteriprodusenten Northvolt.

Ren lithium-anode er egentlig et annet navn på solid state, i følge Sila Nanotechnologies:

"Reasons for the Dream. Calling the technology “solid state” doesn’t tell the real story - the reason to use “solid state”, refers to replacing the electrolyte which in conventional Li-ion is a liquid, with a solid. The reason to do this is to enable the use of a lithium metal anode that would replace the graphite anode entirely. A better name would be “lithium metal anode” technology, which has a long ~40 year history of major technical and commercial challenges pre-dating conventional Li-ion."

I dag bruker vi grafitt-anoder, som holder en god del lithium. Lithiumet er det som holder på energien. Silisiumanoder holder enda mer lithium og har dermed høyere energitetthet.

Ren lithium har teoretisk mye høyere energitetthet, men har veldig mange utfordringer. Derfor tror mange vi ikke vil se slike batterier i stor kommersiell utbredelse på mange år.

Takk Grabein, jeg håper du har rett. Blir litt bekymret når jeg leser på hjemmesiden til Cuberg hvor de sier at de kan levere batterier med Lithium anoder.

Ran, SCC55 is not a coated material (i.e., there is no terminal coating). Therefore, the outer surface has nature of both carbon (from the scaffold) and silicon (from filled carbon pores).

we are currently commissioning our commercial launch facility (120 ton/y scale), and it should be completed soon!

Commissioning is the process of planning, documenting, scheduling, testing, adjusting, verifying, and training, to provide a facility that operates as a fully functional system per the Owner's Project Requirements.

Når vi leser hva status betyr på salget på nabo tomten som står på
Contract from buyer has been accepted
Pending Feasibility – Contract from buyer has been accepted. The seller is awaiting satisfaction of the buyer's feasibility study. Similar to Pending Inspection, but most frequently used for land purchases that include lengthy and detailed feasibility studies

Da kan vi vel anta med stor sikkerhet at det er G14 som skal ha den nabo tomta til REC i moses lake? Alt heller mot dette :-)))) Dette blir gøy ;)
En større bekreftelse på at ML åpner går vel ikke ann å få hvis dette er tilfellet?? Det er jo det samme som om vi skulle fått en reel åpningsdato av ML. Burde berolige alle, og større investorer kan dermed ta plass videre :-)

Vi burde ha klart finne utav dette før markedet... er fullastet allerede så hadde ikke gjort noen forskjell for min del.. Kjøper det jeg kan om dagen
