SBIR-STTR Award

SIL will develop Li-Ion Intelli-Pack battery to meet USAF SMC FTS and Upper Stage requirements. The Li-Ion Polymer Intelli-Pack battery technology energy density is in 200Wh/Kg and also can discharge high continuous (5-20C) and pulse current (10-50C) load without cell damage to meet the USAF battery requirements. The battery weight and volume will be significantly reduce by 1/3 compared to Ni-Cad and Silver Zinc batteries flown on the majority of DoD LVs and missiles today. SIL's advanced Battery Management System for mission and safety critical LV battery application will be utilized to ensure safety during LV battery test operations prior to flight.

Benefits:
DoD and other Applications include Atlas and Delta EELV Rockets, Commercial Rockets, DoD,, Missiles, Hypersonic Vehicles, DoD Aircraft, UAS, Directed Energy Weapons, Robotics Industrial Power Storage and Alternate Energy Storage
