Dow and HPL Sign Li-ion Technology Transfer Agreement; Dow Kokam JV Acquires Assets of Kokam America

Green Car Congress

In essence, HPL’s cathode material combines the benefits of a phosphate (low cost; over- and under-charge resilience; structural stability; good cycle life; thermal stability) with the higher voltage benefits of an oxide material. Higher voltage means fewer cells in series and less electronics cost, according to HPL.
