LaunchTN is making Tennessee the best place for startups! Huge thanks to LaunchTN for all their support of Safire Technology Group, Inc. and for speaking with our Co-founder and COO, Mike Grubbs, about our SBIR contracts with the United States Air Force. It is great to be a part of the start up ecosystem in Tennessee! #LaunchTN #SBIR #lithiumionbatteries #TN
Knoxville-based company Safire Technology Group, Inc. is working to improve Lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries — making them safe, ballistically-resilient, and able to perform in extreme environments for use with the U.S Air Force. What problems are the company solving? “Li-ion batteries are inherently susceptible to fire and explosion, especially when subjected to a force or impact,” Safire Group’s Co-Founder and COO Mike Grubbs said. The company’s technology, SAFIRE™, is the world’s only drop-in additive for Li-ion batteries that prevents fire and explosion by instantaneously converting the electrolyte in a Li-ion battery from liquid-to-solid upon impacts, such as electric vehicle crashes or ballistic events.

Had too much fun making Oobleck with students at Thrive | At-Risk Youth Ministry last week! The same non-Newtonian properties of cornstarch and water are what we are applying in Lithium-ion batteries to make them safer and stronger than ever. Many thanks to Thrive for allowing us to participate in their meaningful work. We love being a part of the Knoxville, TN, community. #lithiumionbatteries #science #experiment #innvovation #lithiumbattery #lithiumion
