Advances Its Silicon Materials for Batteries Development Program
Apollon Solar produces first batch of carbon coated nano silicon powders.
HPQ Silicon is developing a portfolio of silicon–based products using proprietary innovative low cost and scalable processes. The target objective is to produce high value speciality Silicon products needed by batteries and electric vehicle manufactures.
MONTREAL, Nov. 19, 2020 – Innovative silicon solutions provider HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (“HPQ” or “the Company”) ( TSX-V: HPQ ; FWB: UGE ; Other OTC : URAGF ), is pleased to announce that, in addition to manufacturing samples of porous Silicon nanopowders of different sizes (2 nm to 1 µm) and pore structures (Microporous (<5nm), Mesoporous (5nm – 50nm) or Macroporous (>50nm)), HPQ Silicon R&D consortium member Apollon Solar of France has also commenced evaluation of different carbon encapsulating processes for Silicon nanopowders. As part of this HPQ – led effort, Apollon has delivered a first batch of carbon coated nano silicon powders to Professor Lionel Roué team at the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS) for evaluation. Other batches of silicon materials (coated and non-coated) are being prepared and will be sent the INRS for evaluations over the coming weeks.
ACCELERATINGR&D ON NANO SILICON POWDERS CARBON COATING
Apollon proposed that in addition to carbon coating their porous Silicon nanopowders they could use commercially available but expensive (US$ 22,500 per Kg) 1 nano silicon powders to evaluate the efficiency of different carbon coating processes. Using powders with the same characteristic as the powders to be produced by HPQ NANO PUREVAP™NANOSILICONREACTOR should reduce our R&D timeline and give us valuable insight moving forward.
“Producing carbon coated nano silicon powders for testing this early in the process is another demonstration of the depth and flexibility of HPQ’s R&D consortium. HPQ iscommittedtostaying at the forefront of Silicon for batteries R&D.This latest effort is part of our plan to produce productsfor renewable energy storage participantsand electric vehicle manufacturers who continue to search for cost effective ways of increasing the Silicon contained in their batteries.,” said Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO HPQ Silicon. “Silicon’spotential to meet energy storagedemand is undeniable,generatingmassive investments,andserious industry interest.We are very confidentthat demand for the Silicon materials wewillproduce,with ourlow-cost scalable processes,will be high demand bybatteries and EV manufacturersin this renewable energy revolution.”
Tesla’s latest battery day presentation confirmed that the future of battery anodes will include Silicon. Tesla’s “… plans on removing graphite from the anode…”2, points to the need for innovative silicon solutions which HPQ is focused on, to make Silicon – based anodes technically and economically feasible for the production of more efficient rechargeable Li-batteries.
Presently, Silicon is used in a blended form with graphite and typically only represents around 5% by wt , which explains the limited performance improvements achieved to date. The primary hurdle to increasing Silicon anode content in Li-ion batteries is the mitigation of Silicon swelling and cracking during the lithiation phase 3 in order to achieve a cycling stability comparable to graphite.
Ongoing R&D indicates that the two most promising avenues for resolving these issues are:
Nanosizing Silicon powders to eliminate cracking during the lithiation phase.
Encapsulating the Silicon in order to improve its swelling and cracking characteristics.
HPQ is in the forefront of addressing these issues with the PUREVAP™NSiR process and our ongoing work on porous silicon nanopowders and carbon coating nano silicon.

HPQ Silicon Resources (HPQ:TSXV) is a Canadian producer of Silicon that is building a line of specialty silicon products needed for electric batteries.
More than just lip service, HPQ has already announced NDA’s with 2 undisclosed companies in the space and has hinted at other NDA’s that are so tight they could not even be announced.
But October 22, 2020 HPQ Silicon went from “a company that is just talking to auto and battery manufacturers to a company that is doing business with a global auto manufacturer” according to CEO Bernard Tourillon, after the Company announced:
Tourillon went to intimate that this order puts HPQ on the global silicon map that he expects to lead to significantly greater interest from the industry.
This was echoed in the press release which stated:
“HPQ NANO is looking forward to the December 2020 start of the Gen1 PUREVAP TM NSiR reactor in order to start delivering material as we work to keep up with the expected strong interest in our Nano Silicon products.”
Earlier this week, HPQ announced it was on track to start their Nano Silicon reactor in December and fulfill this first order from the auto manufacturer … but then the Company went even further when Tourillon stated:
“While we are very excited by HPQ NANO material blue sky potential in the silicon battery space , we are also thrilled by our material potential in other high value markets,“
What are those other high value markets? How big are they? How confident is HPQ in it’s ability to address these markets?
If you are serious about battery metals and electric vehicles entering their big growth stage in the next 5 years, then you owe it to yourself to watch this interview with CEO.
