Elcora Develops Advanced Surface Coating for Lithium-Ion Battery Electrode Powders

Halifax, Nova Scotia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 14, 2018) - ELCORA ADVANCED MATERIALS CORP. (TSXV: ERA) (FSE: ELM) (OTCQB: ECORF(the "Company" or "Elcora") is pleased to announce that it has developed a surface coating process for lithium-ion battery electrode powders. The surface coating is necessary to meet technical requirements specific to the lithium-ion battery manufacturing industry.  

The surface coating process is economical and scalable. The process gives Elcora the ability to control the surface area of lithium-ion electrode powders. As an example, Elcora was able to reduce the surface area (as measured by BET1) of spherically shaped graphite powder from 3 m2/g to 1 m2/g.

Elcora's coating process alters the surface area of lithium-ion electrode powders to commercially relevant values (e.g. 0.5—5 m2/g). Battery manufacturers purchase electrode powders with different surface areas depending on the application (e.g. high power vs. high energy). Elcora's management believes that the ability to control surface area is very important. This ability allows Elcora to offer a family of graphite anode powder products to a wide variety of commercial battery manufacturers.  Additionally, Elcora's surface coating process is well suited for electrode materials other than graphite.  For example: Si, Sn, SiOx and LiFePO4.  

According to Troy Grant, Chief Executive Officer, "This is a major milestone for Elcora. It demonstrates Elcora's ability to meet specific demands of battery manufacturers.  From the very beginning, Elcora's plan has been to create a vertically integrated business. Elcora is able to execute all steps in the value chain for producing graphite anode powder for lithium-ion batteries. Namely: mining → processing → purification → surface coating → commercial product."
