To Develop the ultimate battery…we had to develop the ultimate material.
Lyten is an advanced materials company that invented Lyten 3D Graphene™, a platform of materials that has the potential to enable breakthroughs in energy storage, composite systems, and chemical & passive sensors. Lyten’s pristine three-dimensional graphene materials will greatly improve the characteristics of other materials and when formulated into our advanced Lithium-Sulfur battery chemistry for electric vehicles, will deliver higher energy density, lower battery weight, and the lowest carbon footprint of any EV battery.
What Others Are Saying
Lyten Lithium-Sulfur Batteries


Battery Energy Density
LytCell EV™ lithium-sulfur batteries designed to deliver three times (3X) the gravimetric energy density of conventional lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries.

Battery Cycle Life
Lyten has engineered 3D Graphene structures that will enable our customers to achieve long cycle life.

Safety
LytCell EV™ batteries will be safer in vehicles because unlike Li-Ion batteries, lithium-sulfur batteries do not experience thermal runaway reactions, nor do they combust when punctured, crushed, or overcharged.

Lowest Carbon Footprint
Lyten batteries will have ~60% lower carbon footprint than conventional Lithium-ion batteries.

Cobalt & Nickel Free
Unlike Li-Ion, Lyten’s Li-S batteries do not use Nickel, Manganese, or Cobalt. Lyten does not source from conflict-based countries or mines that produce hazardous or toxic waste.

Battery Form Factors
Lyten will produce Li-S cells in pouch, cylindrical, and prismatic form factors, including the world’s first 18650 Lithium-Sulfur battery.

Li-S Manufacturing Pilot Line
Lyten’s 3D Graphene and Lithium-Sulfur Cell Pilot Line, located in San Jose, CA, will come online in the second half of 2022. The Pilot Line will have the ability to produce up to a quarter of a million cells per year in support of customer qualification. The Pilot Line will be tooled to produce pouch, prismatic, and cylindrical cells in numerous sizes.

USMCA Supply Chain
Lithium-Sulfur technology enables North American-based sourcing and manufacturing. Lyten Li-S cell are produced from readily available materials. The distance traveled by Lyten’s supply chain will be <1,000 miles compared with 29,000 miles for standard NMC 811 Li-ion battery supply chains.

Strong IP Position
Having engineered 3-Dimensional Graphene, Lyten has established itself as the global leader in 3D Graphene and Li-S Cell Intellectual Property with over 280 patents granted and pending. The patents span from fundamental material patents to application patents including 3D Graphene for use in Li-S cells, light-weighting of Composites, Wireless and Self-Powered Sensors, and more than 30 other applications.

Charge Rate
Lyten batteries are ideal for electric vehicles because they have the ability to charge rapidly.

Operating Range
Lyten Li-S batteries will deliver reliable power across a broad operating range between -30°C to +60°C. Unlike solid state, Lyten batteries require no external pressure to perform.

Depth of Discharge
Lyten batteries for electric vehicles and other applications will handle vigorous charge and discharge protocols, including 100% DOD.
