AdvEn Solutions Incorporated Founded on October 18, 2011
Discovered & patented new electrochemical process using
Fluoride-Ion as an Electrochemical Material Platform (EMP)
Focus on development of high performance electrochemicalmaterial technology and engineering, currently achieved
high-performance cathode material and proprietary induction
process (induced fluorination or iF).
Completed coin cell prototype development
Further product improvement via partnering with anode
developers (or self-developed anode), battery makers and
application providers

Status of commercialization
o Pouch cells can be fabricatedusing the same assembling line
for fabricating LIBs
o
The invented inducing processcan be conducted after the
pouch cells are fabricated and
would take less than a day to
complete (At least one month is
usually needed to condition theLIBs after fabrication)
Technological barriers to full scale production
o The technology is safe but validation and assessment in
real environments are needed.
