"performance, their resilience to wide temperatures, and their sustainability. In addition, their approach highly unique, as it revisits some of the fundamentals of electrolyte design for battery technologies. dimethyl ether features simplest ether... compatible with Li metal... outstanding physical properties and electrochemically transport properties... batteries operating at ultra-low temperature. The pursuit of high-voltage (>4.5 V) batteries is also our interest"
