Sodium-ion (Na-ion) batteries represent the next generation of grid energy storage technology, offering capabilities and characteristics that surpass those of lithium-ion batteries.
Thermal runaway is a dangerous chain reaction where a battery cell's temperature increases uncontrollably, often leading to fire or explosions.Alsym Energy eliminates this risk at the chemical level. Unlike lithium-ion, Alsym's NFPP+ sodium-ion chemistry does not contain volatile organic solvents that can ignite or self-fueling electrode materials, ensuring that systems remain stable even under extreme physical or electrical abuse.
Yes. Alsym's Na-series is designed to UL 9540A safety standards at the cell level. While many lithium-ion systems require complex external fire suppression to manage propagation, our cells do not undergo thermal runaway or support fire spread.
No. One of the most significant risks of traditional battery fires is the release of toxic, corrosive gases like hydrogen fluroide. Alsym's non-toxic chemistry does not produce these dangerous toxic gases. This makes Alsym's batteries uniquely suited for indoor installations in hospitals and schools.
