NDE’s core innovation is inorganic fluid technologies designed to replace organic carbonates in lithium battery electrolytes. These inorganic electrolytes demonstrate improved resistance to evaporation, significantly reduced flammability, enhanced thermal stability, and extended usable voltage ranges. The solutions minimize electrochemical degradation, potentially extending battery lifespan, and allow operation without complex thermal management systems. Applicable across consumer electronics, industrial equipment, and electric vehicles.
NDE offers inorganic liquid electrolyte solvents as sample products for battery manufacturers. These electrolyte formulations feature high thermal stability, low volatility, non-flammable properties, extended cycle life, and broad voltage compatibility. Samples are provided for evaluation and integration into existing production processes for consumer electronics, industrial equipment, and electric vehicles.
NDE received $2.2 million in SBIR funding from the Air Force’s AFWERX program: $1.25 million for developing enhanced wearable batteries over 21 months and $962,500 for improving tactical radio battery packs over 14 months. The company is collaborating with eight companies to evaluate its battery additive technology in applications including Formula E racing and defense contracting programs.
Primary funding from SBIR awards via the Air Force’s AFWERX program; plans for a $3M seed funding round; anticipates securing multiple commercial licenses for its proprietary technology. Additional investor information not publicly available.
