GDI’s patented silicon anodes offer better performance over standard lithium-ion batteries. GDI anodes use the power of silicon to achieve faster charging times, greater energy density, and exceptional safety.
Silicon anodes provide 30% greater energy density, 3x faster charging, up to 90% lighter weight, and security of supply compared with graphite, and is the dream material for battery developers and product designers.
GDI’s patented 100% silicon anodes use a continuous, flexible silicon layer that addresses swelling during charge/discharge, preventing the mechanical stress common in other silicon anode designs.
GDI’s advanced manufacturing, powered by AGC’s PlasmaMAX™ technology, offers 5-10x faster silicon deposition, making silicon anodes a commercial reality.
Our patented 100% silicon anodes are versatile and integrate seamlessly into existing high-production battery manufacturing, enabling innovative companies to significantly improve the performance of their products through faster charging, greater energy density, lighter weight, and security of supply.
We collaborate with product and battery manufacturers from a wide range of industries to integrate GDI silicon anode technology into their battery designs.
Whether your company is developing drones for defense or civil use, military wearable technologies, the latest in medical technologies, electric vehicles, or electrified aerospace applications, GDI has the silicon anode solution to power your specific needs.
GDI’s pure silicon anodes are designed to adapt to any lithium battery architecture and are engineered for mass manufacturing that can scale. We’ve partnered with state-of-the-art manufacturers to use existing fabrication equipment, making our silicon anodes cost-efficient. The first anode is the same as the tenth – or the millionth.
