Core–shell type nanoparticles are a type of biphasic materials which have an inner core structure and an outer shell made of different components. These particles have been of interest as they can exhibit unique properties arising from the combination of core and shell material, geometry, and design 1,2. The core-shell MNPs are superparamagnetic at room temperature for sizes less than 15 nm, and then become ferromagnetic when the cluster size increases. The specific magnetic moment of core-shell MNPs is size dependent and increases rapidly from about 80 emu/g at the size of 3 nm to over 200 emu/g up to the size of 100 nm.

Coreshell Technologies is accelerating the world’s transition to electric transportation and renewable energy by solving the key degradation issue in rechargeable batteries. Our breakthrough nanolayer thin-film coating technology protects batteries from degrading chemical reactions and is uniquely capable of seamlessly fitting into existing manufacturing while producing the step change needed in the capacity, safety and cost of batteries.

CONSUMER ELECTRONICS

The next generation of wearable devices and consumer electronics require improved safety with longer-lasting batteries that require less charging. Coreshell’s coating technology is one of the few of its kind that offers all three, allowing product manufacturers to add new features without changing form factor or
sacrificing battery life.

ELECTRIC VEHICLES

The dream of dependable, long-range electric vehicles that are affordable for everyone is contingent on enabling new battery materials that can allow cheaper, smaller batteries to provide the same performance as large, expensive ones. Coreshell’s coatings can accomplish this by increasing battery energy density by 30-50% while simultaneously improving battery manufacturing costs.

RENEWABLE ENERGY

Core Shell

Solar and wind are already affordable but must be paired with expensive energy storage solutions to provide 24/7 zero-emission energy that is also resilient. To further improve renewable penetration, batteries must come down in price and last for decades. Coreshell is currently being funded by the California Energy Commission to demonstrate our coating’s ability to significantly extend battery lifetime and reduce battery costs.
