What is a lithium titanate battery?

A lithium-titanate battery is a modified lithium-ion battery that uses lithium-titanate nanocrystals, instead of carbon, on the surface of its anode. This gives the anode a surface area of about 100 square meters per gram, compared with 3 square meters per gram for carbon, allowing electrons to enter and leave the anode quickly.

Who are titanvolt batteries?

Titanvolt is a UK company leading the way in next-generation energy storage with advanced LTO batteries that are safe, sustainable and more efficient. Our lithium titanate oxide batteries charge faster, last longer and are 95% recyclable.

What are lithium titanate oxide (LTO) batteries?

Lithium titanate oxide (LTO) batteries are a unique type of rechargeable battery that stands out due to their internal structure. Instead of conventional materials, LTO batteries employ nano-crystals of lithium titanate as their anode material. These nano-crystals are capable of accommodating lithium ions during the charging process.

Are lithium titanate oxide batteries flammable?

Our lithium titanate oxide batteries charge faster, last longer and are 95% recyclable. They’re also non-flammable and don’t overheat – making them ideal for residential, commercial and industrial applications.

What is a lithium titanate based anode?

The lithium titanate-based anode in LTO batteries, compared to the graphite or carbon-based anode found in traditional lithium-ion batteries, allows them to achieve very high charge and discharge rates, meaning they are capable of re-charging much faster than traditional lithium-ion (Li-ion) technology.

What are the advantages of lithium titanate batteries?

Lithium titanate batteries come with several notable advantages: Fast Charging: One of the standout features of LTO batteries is their ability to charge rapidly—often within minutes—making them ideal for applications that require quick recharging.
