SINGAPORE, July 19, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
With the testing-laboratory innovation program in Singapore, JIOS Aerogel can
create more efficient, cutting-edge, high-performance solutions for EV battery
makers
JIOS Aerogel, an innovator in critical components for Li-ion battery systems -
the world's primary energy storage medium, today announced the expansion of its
innovation program with partner VDE Renewables' State-of-the-Art Battery
Testing Laboratory in Singapore. JIOS strongly believes in the value of
leveraging world-class third-party laboratories such as VDE's to provide
confidence to its customers and complement its extensive internal capabilities.
With innovation at the core of its ethos, JIOS Aerogel is constantly testing
new solutions on a weekly basis with multiple types of Li-ion battery cells for
their customers' needs ranging from electric vehicles to energy storage
systems. This is where the all-new testing laboratory in Singapore will come
into play.
Leveraging Singapore as an innovation hub
A global leader in innovation and an emerging hub for cutting-edge technology,
Singapore was a natural choice for JIOS Aerogel's battery testing laboratory.
As per a 2021 KPMG report
(https://home.kpmg/sg/en/home/insights/2021/07/singapore-takes-top-spot-in-ranki
ng-for-leading-technology-innovation-hubs-kpmg-survey.html), Singapore is at
the number one position as a tech innovation hub leaving behind cities like New
York City, Beijing and London for the second year running.
JIOS Aerogel can leverage the robust digital infrastructure and the thriving
innovation ecosystem of the city-state for testing and developing cutting-edge
solutions for the Electric Vehicles and Energy Storage Systems sectors.
"We are excited about ongoing developments at our innovative testing lab in
Singapore. The VDE testing laboratory allows us to do multiple things- from
testing our thermal barrier materials that are placed between battery cells to
testing multiple configurations of cells. For example, sometimes we test 2
cells, and other times a whole set of 8 cells together. This will further our
stride for innovation," shared Marketing and Program Director, Dr. Stephen
Hodson.
The VDE laboratory also allows JIOS Aerogel to test battery temperatures and
battery voltage under various conditions as well as compare their ultra-thin
solutions that can vary anywhere from 1.0 – 4.0 mm thickness. This will allow
JIOS Aerogel to meet the demands of battery makers who are increasingly looking
to have the thinnest possible, higher-performance solutions.
About JIOS Aerogel
JIOS Aerogel is the world's leading manufacturer of silica aerogel powder. JIOS
has dramatically lowered the cost of aerogel production through a
patent-protected manufacturing process, making this advanced, multi-functional
material available for a myriad of industries and applications.
JIOS has already established a Joint-Venture with Armacell to produce Armagel
aerogel blankets used to provide insulation in the industrial and oil and gas
sectors.
The company also provides aerogel powder to supercharge gypsum boards, achieves
an A60 rating for insulation coating used on ships, improves thermal and fire
performance of EV battery cells, and even makes synthetic down insulation
perform just like natural down.
