Titomic Partners with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute to Innovate Lithium-Ion Battery Electrode Manufacturing
Titomic Ltd has announced its partnership with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute to apply cold spray additive manufacturing for lithium-ion battery electrode production. This innovative approach, supported by the National Science Foundation, aims to streamline electrode manufacturing by eliminating traditional slurry-based processes. The collaboration focuses on developing advanced silicon-copper composite electrodes and enhancing the sustainability and scalability of the production process.

Titomic Ltd is collaborating with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI) to apply its Titomic Kinetic Fusion (TKF) technology in lithium-ion battery (LIB) electrode manufacturing. This approach uses cold spray technology to directly deposit electrode powders onto foils, eliminating the multiple steps involved in traditional slurry-based methods.
The project, supported by the National Science Foundation, is structured in four phases: material feasibility, demonstrator selection, Pilot TKF CS station development, and scalability analysis. The goal is to produce advanced silicon-copper composite electrodes that are solvent and binder-free, enhancing the efficiency and sustainability of LIB production.
