    Natrion

    Natrion akosyakov@natrion.co 630-849-7277 60 Hazelwood Dr. Champaign, IL Natrion is pushing the boundaries of materials science to develop new batteries and battery components that eliminate fire risk while diminishing material costs. Natrion’s new Lithium Solid Ionic Conductor (LISIC) combines a proprietary high-performance ceramic made from a clay mineral that is already used in cosmetics and paper with a type of plastic that’s typically found in building fire insulation. The result is a component that can be integrated into existing battery assembly lines in place of liquid electrolytes to eliminate battery fire risk. Natrion is developing its own sodium-ion battery architecture that will pair all of the safety benefits of LISIC with chemistry that replaces lithium with sodium. natrion.co Natrion at Research Park Natrion Meets with Venture Investors in Silicon Valley Natrion lands $1.5 million in Air Force contracts Natrion Commissions New Production Line, Sets Sights on UK and EU Demand Battery startup Natrion lands $1.5M in Air Force contracts Natrion Featured in Axios for Driving Electric Aviation Natrion Receives Illini Angels’ First Investment Natrion Co-Founder Recognized in Forbes’ 30 Under 30: Energy List Natrion Named Ultimate Winner at Urban Tech Challengers 2023 Natrion Pushes Ahead with Solid-State Li-Metal Battery Tech Scale-Up, Named Finalist in LG Energy Solution Battery Challenge 2022 Natrion Named A Finalist in the 2022 LG Energy Solution Battery Challenge Natrion Receives $2M Funding, Government Contracts Co-Founder of Natrion Recognized in Chicago Inno’s 25 Under 25 EnterpriseWorks Startup Natrion Secures $2 Million in Funding from Major Backers Intern Awards Best Entrepreneurial Leadership in a Startup 2022 – Shivam Tailor Best Startup Intern 2023 – Brisa McGrath

    Illinois Plasma Institute

    Illinois Plasma Institute nuclear@illinois.edu 2109 S. Oak St. Champaign, IL The Illinois Plasma Institute (IPI) is an initiative of the Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.  IPI’s founding was driven by a desire to rethink existing pathways to commercialization of new technologies developed in academic research settings.  Combining the best of both worlds, IPI provides a space where forward-thinking industrial partners can pair their research and development staff with academic researchers closer to the underlying science behind a new technology. Working in concert on a shared platform, advances it makes in the laboratory may be implemented on production-level equipment, shortening the time to adoption in high-volume manufacturing. Complementary to cooperation in the lab, assignees from industrial partners also find easy access to the College’s Master’s of Engineering in Plasma Engineering, a professional Master’s program designed to prepare workers from a wide variety of technical fields for the unique opportunities that plasma processing has to offer. ipi.illinois.edu   The Illinois Plasma Institute at Research Park IPI Director David Ruzic featured on the UIUC Talk Show IPI Director David Ruzic retires from teaching What does the IPI do? segment in the News Gazette LytEn joins IPI on $2.1 million deal IPI secures research agreement with Tokyo Electron Ltd.
