SYNergy launches consumer electronics battery powered by XNO® anode technology

Taiwanese battery manufacturer, SYNergy ScienTech Corp (SYNergy), has launched high-performance ultra-fast charging battery cells for use in consumer electronic products powered by Echion’s niobium-based XNO® anode material. SYNergy has also added XNO® to its product development roadmap, citing XNO®’s ability to deliver the unique combination of ultra-fast charging, long cycle life, high usable energy density, safety and in extreme environmental and temperature conditions as being appealing for applications beyond consumer electronics. SYNergy’s XNO® equipped 1Ah pouch battery cells achieve an energy density of 282 Wh/L and deliver a maximum continuous charging current of 12A. This allows the cell to achieve an average charging rate of at least 10C (i.e. <6 minutes) across the full state-of-charge, doubling the cycle life of current graphite-based technologies. It also performs safely while in extreme conditions between -30°C and 60°C.



Colin Hsieh, Chief Executive Officer at SYNergy, added: “We are committed to pursuing the latest innovations in battery design and manufacturing, and Echion’s XNO® anode material is one such innovation that we are particularly excited about.  We want to deliver the highest quality, top performing batteries for use in consumer electronics, such as headphones, plus battery back-up units (BBU) and customised battery management systems (BMS) solutions. While we are still in the early stages, we hope that, by continuing to work together with Echion’s team, we can produce a range of products powered by XNO® that will make a profoundly positive impact on many markets.”

Ben Ting, Chief Commercial Officer at Echion, said: “We are pleased to have supported SYNergy to adopt our niobium-based XNO® anode technology. XNO® can unlock unique combinations of battery performances, such as fast-charge, energy density and safety, and the team at SYNergy have demonstrated these properties in their first product. We look forward to working with SYNergy as they develop their roadmap to develop XNO® cells for applications in consumer electronics and beyond.” Echion supports cell manufacturers around the world to ensure that as many end users as possible can benefit from its niobium-based XNO® anode materials. The material enables lithium-ion batteries to safely fast charge in less than ten minutes, maintain high energy densities even at extreme temperatures, and deliver high power across a cycle life of more than 10,000 cycles. It is patented and has been specifically engineered to be easy to mix, calendar, and adopt for manufacturers.
