electrified future
Warfighters must be able to trust their equipment. At Safire, we leave no doubt. We build ruggedized electrified products and systems capable of delivering improved performance and safety in the most extreme environments across the battle space. With partnerships covering applications from hardened wearables to ruggedized electric vehicles, we’re not reinventing the battery, we’re securing an electrified future.

Safire’s patented technology revolutionizes the battery without redesigning it. Our shear-thickening additive works at the cell level, instantly changing the electrolyte from conductive liquid to inert solid upon impact and preventing the runaway reactions that lead to explosion or fire. Best of all, the hybrid-state technology can be dropped into any lithium-ion battery without reducing performance, allowing you to maximize efficiency without increasing volatility.
1. Silica nanoparticles disperse in any liquid electrolyte
2. Particles are prepositioned on any commercially available separator
3. Chemistry agnostic (no interactions with active materials)
4. Cell format agnostic.
1. Particles aggregate to form solid-like barrier between electrodes
2. Thermal runaway / propagation prevention
3. Electrolyte returns to normal viscosity after shear is removed
