As we advance our patented, pCAM-free dry synthesis platform for cathode production, we’ll share key company milestones, technical insights, and perspectives on the evolving battery materials landscape.
From technology development and scale-up to commercialization and the future of cathode manufacturing, we’ll highlight the work underway at Dryve and the broader trends shaping the industry.
100 kg of cathode material sent to a U.S.-based cell maker for evaluation.
In August, Dryve achieved a significant milestone: 100kg of cathode material sent to an American cell and materials company for evaluation. This was the largest sample we have shipped to date and represents another important step in the scale-up of our technology.
The ability to produce meaningful quantities of high-performance, NMC cathode material is an important part of moving from technology validation toward commercial application.
This shipment gives our customer the opportunity to evaluate Dryve material at a scale well beyond typical laboratory samples, while giving us another opportunity to demonstrate the capabilities of our patented pCAM-free, dry synthesis process.
A great milestone for the team and another important step forward for Dryve.
Dryve Selected for Canada-Japan Battery Materials Evaluation Program with LIBTEC
In September, Dryve was invited by Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) to participate in the Canada-Japan battery materials evaluation program through the Lithium-ion Battery Technology and Evaluation Center (LIBTEC), an independent battery evaluation organization based in Japan.
“Participation in the LIBTEC evaluation program provides an important opportunity to further validate Dryve’s cathode materials under rigorous, industry-relevant conditions,” said Dr. Chris Burns, CEO of Dryve. “Independent data from LIBTEC can help demonstrate the performance of our dry, pCAM-free cathode technology while supporting Canada-Japan cooperation in secure, resilient and sustainable battery supply chains.”
“Canada has what the world wants, and the talent, resources and innovation to become a global leader in battery materials,” said the Honourable Tim Hodgson, Minister of Energy and Natural Resources. “Dryve’s participation in the LIBTEC evaluation program will help showcase Canadian innovation to international customers, strengthen Canada-Japan collaboration and building more secure and competitive battery supply chains – helping us unlock our resources, diversify our trading partners, and build Canada Strong with Canadian innovation.”
Dryve Selected for Sweden Battery Value Chain Special Edition Canadian Technology Accelerator.
In September, Dryve was selected to participate in the Sweden Battery Value Chain Special Edition Canadian Technology Accelerator 2026 - 27, delivered by the Government of Canada's Trade Commissioner Service.
“Selection for the Sweden Battery Value Chain CTA is an important step in Dryve’s international commercialization strategy,” said Dr. Chris Burns, CEO of Dryve. “The program provides a valuable opportunity to engage directly with potential customers, partners and investors in Sweden and across the European battery ecosystem as we advance the commercialization of our dry, pCAM-free cathode technology.”
Our latest white paper presents a practical demonstration of pilot scale synthesis of single crystal mid-nickel LiNi0.6Mn0.3Co0.1O2 (SC NMC631) cathode active material using Dryve Battery Materials’ patented dry, pCAM-free technology. Results demonstrate that Dryve’s NMC631 CAM can be a competitive alternative to today’s best-performing commercial material.
