Nichicon SLB series

NICHICON CORPORATION has developed a high-temperature resistant version of its "SLB series" small lithium titanate oxide secondary battery, which is safe, long-lasting, and capable of rapid charging and discharging, and can be used at temperatures ranging from -30°C to 80°C. The company will be showcasing this product at CES 2025, the world's largest electronics exhibition, to be held in Las Vegas, USA from January 7th to 10th (North Hall, Booth #10471).

Features

In this development, NICHICON analyzed the degradation mechanism of conventional products in high-temperature environments and optimized the electrode foil and electrolyte specifications to develop a product with improved high-temperature durability. In a charge-discharge cycle test (20°C rate, 100% depth of discharge) in an 80°C environment, NICHICON succeeded in increasing the number of cycles required to reach 80% capacity retention to approximately 19,000 times. This product is planned to expand the "SLB series" as a high-temperature durable product compatible with an operating temperature range from -30°C to 80°C. The size lineup will start with a product with a diameter of 8mm, height of 11.5mm, and capacity of 10mAh, and other sizes and capacities are planned to be released in the future.

This product has high temperature durability that can meet the market needs for use in high-temperature environments required by IoT devices, industrial equipment, and social infrastructure markets that are used outdoors. At room temperature they will have long lives making them ideal for maintenance free devices and help solve social issues.
