Successful Advancement of Three Lithium-Sulfur Patents in the
This development marks a positive development in Gelion's IP strategy, reinforcing protection of its core Li-S technology. By securing patent coverage in critical areas, Gelion continues to build a defensible moat around its unique approach to next-generation sulfur technology.
Strengthening
Gelion has successfully advanced several patent applications pertaining to its core Li-S technology this year including:
· Two newly granted patents and one application allowed in the
· These patents protect advancements that deliver:
o enhancement of cycling performance and extension of cell lifespan - resulting in longer usable life with cells able to be charged and discharged more times without significant decline in energy outputs
o one-step manufacturing of single or double-sided protective coatings on alkali metal electrodes - reducing manufacturing complexity and costs, and enabling improvements in safety and cycling stability
o precision thermal and state-of-charge management of cells within a module - preventing thermal runaway, enhances operational safety, and improves efficiency.
Each of these advances strengthens Gelion's proprietary position and directly supports real-world deployment of safer, high-performance Li-S batteries.
A Leading Global Li-S Portfolio
With this progress, Gelion's Li-S portfolio now comprises over 200 patents and applications across 40 families, spanning anode, cathode, electrolyte, cell engineering, manufacturing techniques, and battery management. This breadth of coverage provides end-to-end protection across the Li-S value chain and underpins the Company's strategy to commercialise safer, lighter, and longer-lasting batteries.

About Gelion
Gelion ("gel: ion") is a global energy storage innovator, supporting the transition to a more sustainable economy by commercialising globally important next generation battery technologies: Sulfur based, Lithium-Sulfur (Li-S), Sodium-Sulfur (Na-S) and Zinc-based (Zn) hybrid cells to electrify mobile and stationary applications and battery recycling technology.
In addition, Gelion is also delivering commercial Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) projects through its Integration Solutions business.
Sulfur Batteries
Gelion's effort is directed at the potential for sulfur-based cathode active materials (CAMs) to deliver low-cost & sustainable batteries with compelling performance. In the case of Li-S batteries, the target is a high-performance light-weight battery for the EV and e-aviation market. In the case of Na-S batteries, the target is an ultra-low-cost advancement on batteries currently employed in the stationary storage and economy EV market. The company's overarching goal is to help make global transport, energy consumption and storage more sustainable.
Glossary
|
Ah |
Ampere hours. A measure of capacity stored in the cell. The larger the number the higher the capacity. |
|
mAh/g(S) |
The unit mAh/g(S) stands for milliampere-hours per gram of Sulfur (with S indicating "Sulfur"). It is a measure quantifying how many electrons (in mAh) can be stored per gram of Sulfur. |
|
CAM |
Cathode active material |
|
Energy density (Wh/kg) |
The ratio of energy stored per unit weight i.e. Watt-hours per kilogram. The higher the number the lighter the battery. |
|
Pouch cell |
An industry standard format of a battery which comprises a flat pouch-shaped design with a multi-layered laminate structure. |
|
Cycle life |
The number of full charge and discharge cycles a battery can complete before its capacity falls below a specified level, typically 80% of the original capacity. Higher cycle life indicates longer-lasting performance. |
