> The highly stable oxide electrolyte is used to replace flammable liquid polymer electrolyte to prevent or delay thermal runaway effect. The electrolyte material stability allows for the use of high-utilization cathode and anode materials to enable higher energy density in cells and lower manufacturing costs.
