Expertise delivering success
At the heart of Nanotecture’s success lies the company’s combined expertise in electrochemistry and nanotechnology which supports a wealth of applications in the storage and optimisation of electrical energy – an issue of crucial importance to many industries, particularly those engaged in renewable power generation and the design of energy-efficient vehicles and portable electronic devices.
Nanotecture specialises in the production of nanoporous materials and the development of highly efficient electrical storage devices based on those materials. The company’s proprietary material production process enables the precise engineering of nano-scale architectures within materials. These nanoporous materials are characterised by very high surface areas, typically hundreds of times the area of the equivalent non-porous materials. Electrodes and electrical storage devices constructed of nanoporous material respond at high speed and deliver very high power density.
Unique supercapacitor design
Using its expertise in electrochemistry Nanotecture has also developed novel asymmetric cell architectures based on one nanoporous battery and one capacitor electrode. This unique, patented, supercapacitor design provides the dual advantage of higher power density and higher energy density compared to conventional designs.
