We are pleased to introduce Ion Storage Systems to EWI membership. Headquartered in Maryland, the company manufactures high energy density, solid-state lithium metal batteries marketed to be safer, lighter, and enable form factors with tighter packing density that enhance system performance.

In the new hydrogen economy, all materials – including polymers – will need to be qualified for use in an H2-rich environment. Hydrogen can quickly absorb into plastic seals, gaskets, and non-metal pipes to cause damage and even danger. EWI has developed new screening tests for detecting polymer material weaknesses that can result from hydrogen...

Understanding Lithium Batteries for Electric Vehicle Applications -- a new EWI guide Lithium-ion batteries are costly, but they dominate in electric vehicle applications because they can achieve high operating voltages and very high energy efficiency while also maintaining a small size and footprint. With so much interest in Li batteries comes more R&D geared to...
