Formerly SiNode Systems, NanoGraf pursues advances in Lithium-ion battery anodes to transform a wide range of industries from consumer electronics to electric vehicles. NanoGraf’s anode technology utilizes a composite of silicon nano-particles within a patent-pending graphene scaffolding system that increases a battery's energy density (5-7 times) and reduces the charging time of a lithium-ion battery up to a factor of 10.
