ALTAIRNANO
Altairnano is an innovator and
supplier of advanced novel,
ceramic nanomaterials.
Altairnano’s leading edge
scientists are complemented by a
seasoned management team with
substantial experience in
commercializing innovative,
disruptive technologies. The
company has developed
nanomaterials for the
alternative energy, life
sciences and performance
materials markets based on its
proprietary manufacturing
process. This process also
provides the foundation for its
innovative AHP pigment process.
In alternative energy Altairnano
has disruptive battery
technology delivering
minute-charge, high power, long
life, ultra-wide operating
temperature range and inherently
safe performance in its NanoSafe™
batteries. For more information

For a number of years Altairnano
has been developing
groundbreaking materials to
solve the issues plaguing
conventional battery technology
- high power and energy density,
cycle life, weight, cost and the
ability to perform in extreme
temperatures – places where
conventional batteries can’t go.
Altairnano has developed a nano-structured
lithium titanate battery
electrode allowing the
manufacture of a new generation
of rechargeable batteries to
address today’s power and energy
hungry applications. These high
power rechargeable lithium ion
battery cells, batteries and
battery packs, are now being
built and tested in its
Anderson, Indiana, facility for
rapid design, prototyping and
applications testing. Altairnano
battery technology provides a
unique combination of very high
specific power and high specific
energy relative to other
conventional batteries currently
used in what are called power
applications – hybrid vehicles,
power tools, UPS systems, and
extreme-temperature military and
aerospace applications. Its
battery cells have demonstrated
three-minute full recharge and
more than 9,000 cycles of
sequential three-minute, 100
percent, recharges and
discharges. This compares to
conventional batteries that
charge in hours and have cycle
life of less than 1,000 cycles.
Altairnano’s batteries are able
to start and run at minus 22
degrees Fahrenheit and function
safely up to 480 degrees
Fahrenheit. Can you imagine the
possibilities
