- The core technology is the patented Activated Dry Electrode™ (ADE) process, applicable to the manufacturing of electrodes for ultracapacitors, lithium-ion capacitors, lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries, and sodium-ion batteries. This innovative method eliminates toxic solvents and energy-intensive drying steps from the electrode manufacturing process. Additionally, LIC products incorporate a pre-lithiation process for the anode, enabling higher output voltage and energy density. The company also utilizes laser welding and proprietary crimp sealing processes for robust cell connections and hermetic seals.The core technology is the patented Activated Dry Electrode™ (ADE) process, applicable to the manufacturing of electrodes for ultracapacitors, lithium-ion capacitors, lithium-ion batteries, solid-state batteries, and sodium-ion batteries.

- Lithium-ion Capacitors (LICs) represent a hybrid energy storage solution, combining the high power and long life of ultracapacitors with the high energy density and low self-discharge rate of lithium-ion batteries. This offers double the energy density compared to ultracapacitors and longer life with a wider operating temperature range than lithium-ion batteries, along with a safe, non-thermal runaway characteristic.Lithium-ion Capacitors (LICs) represent a hybrid energy storage solution, combining the high power and long life of ultracapacitors with the high energy density and low self-discharge rate of lithium-ion batteries.
