Research abstract
ALE team will develop a safe, high energy and high-power Na ion battery using 18650 and 21700 cylindrical Na ion cell made of domestically made raw materials for Navy aviation applications. ÝFurther, the negative raw material manufacturing will be scaled by several times, which will lead to a robust domestic supply chain.
