A high voltage stability electrolyte (Phoenix Innovation) is combined with high voltage stability electrodes (A123Systems) to produce the next generation of high rate, high capacity lithium batteries. In addition to exceptional electrochemical performance, the novel electrolyte, which contains no carbonates, is nonflammable and inherently stable to thermal runaway. As such, these new batteries will be much safer than state of the art lithium systems.
