RE:New Press Release - HPQ Files Provisional Patent Application for High Throughput Silicon-Based Anode Material ManufacturingExcellent addition to HPQ Silicon's patent portfolio. From the NR:
“This new patent application, along with the validated potential of our material, further strengthens our unique value proposition in the silicon-based anode materials market," added Mr. Tourillon. "What truly sets us apart from other players in the field is that our primary feedstock is low-cost metallurgical silicon metal, rather than the much more expensive and volatile monosilane gas(SiH4) [7] which also requires a costly Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) process to produce battery-grade silicon materials.”
And:
Another key advantage is that this process can be seamlessly integrated into HPQ’s QRR without requiring significant changes to reactor design, minimizing technological development risks.
