Technology

South 8’s LiGas® is a proprietary blend of non-toxic and non-corrosive gasses. LiGas offers compelling advantages over standard liquid electrolyte for lithium-ion batteries:

REDUCED FIRE RISK

In third-party testing, LiGas has demonstrated to safely vent from punctured or damaged cells, leaving behind a dry cell without flammable electrolyte, reducing the risk of thermal propagation.

Fast Charge

The LiGas electrolyte has a low viscosity and exhibits a high conductivity that enables fast-charge capabilities of high energy cells for electric vehicles.

Extreme low-temperature performance

South 8 Technologies is expanding e-mobility into even the harshest environments. LiGas has achieved world-record temperature performance in low- and high-temperature environments from -60 to +60 °C.

MANUFACTURABILITY

The LiGas electrolyte is giga-factory compatible with most of today’s manufacturing processes and equipment. LiGas is compatible with all conventional cathode, anode, and separator materials.
