Core Technologies

High Speed Manufacturability – A key limitation in current commercial designs is an inability to scale the manufacturing processes to efficient high volume manufacturing. Ionix Power Systems has developed a composite material that allows a matrix of cells to be manufactured simultaneously.  Such an efficient high-throughput design will allow Ionix to address many high volume and multi-cell markets that are not feasible with current designs.  For example many high voltage applications of the technology require many cells in series.  The efficient matrixed approach is a key enabler for Ionix to penetrate these markets.

Reactive Voltage Stabilization – A key limitation with current commercial design is the high cost of building high voltage, multi-cell banks in a cost effective manner.  One of the key limitations is a requirement to utilize electronics to ensure equal voltage division between cells.  Ionix has developed an innovative design that ensures equal voltage division through reversible shuttle reactions that limit the voltage on overcharged cells, which eliminates the need for external electronics.   

Advanced Electrolyte – The electrolytic solution in electrochemical capacitors has a profound effect on determining key performance characteristics such as energy, power, life, temperature, and safety characteristics.  High performance designs currently use solutions classified as hazardous materials.  Such an unsafe classification limits applications of the technology.  Ionix Power Systems has developed an advanced electrolytic solution that offers twice the power performance of competitive safe alternatives.   The performance enhancement is achieved through the use of novel cations and anions in the electrolyte salt that are highly soluble in safe, nontoxic solvents that are currently not utilized in commercial capacitor designs.
