STOBA Lithium-ion Battery Material Technology Ensures the Safety of Consumer Electronics

STOBA (self-terminated oligomers with hyper-branched architecture), developed by Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI), is the first material technology to ensure the safety of consumer electronic products.

Lithium-ion batteries, the power source for many consumer electronic devices, including cell phones, laptops, MP3 players, cameras, and hybrid and electric cars, are often the most unstable electronic component, as they are susceptible to overheating, which can cause fires and explosions.

To meet the growing demand for safer lithium batteries, ITRI successfully developed STOBA, which has fundamentally resolved the safety issue. By integrating a nano-grade polymer, which forms a protective film much like a nano-grade fuse, into the Li-ion battery a locking effect is generated when the battery encounters excessive heat, external impact or piercing and interrupts the electrical and chemical action, preventing explosions that threaten consumer safety.
