Blooming America

Chapter 802: Battery strategy

In fact, this is no wonder Exxon Mobil-other book friends are reading:. Maker: No ads, full text, more

Because they only inquired about Catherine's Golden Dragon Battery Company, they already felt unreliable.

the reason is simple.

Although the Golden Dragon Battery Company is huge enough, the way the company was established is too unreliable.

Catherine directly acquired more than a dozen companies, and then merged them all together to become Catherine’s Golden Dragon Battery. Some companies look like these companies are like mobs. How can such mobs make them feel reliable? What?

But Catherine's idea is different from Exxon-a good novel:.

Because the venture funds are managed by Soros, Catherine believes in Soros's strength.

On the other hand, after such a long period of time, these companies that are still profitable in the market can be said to have come out of the sand. How can these people be incapable?

It's just that Exxon's people can't know this. Even if they know it, I am afraid that it is not very reliable.

More importantly, the lithium battery business itself is ready to start making profits. Although lithium batteries have many shortcomings, as a new type of battery, lithium batteries have enough value.

——Not necessarily the sales value.

In fact, just recently, Exxon has thrown out the concept of lithium batteries. This concept has also attracted a group of onlookers. The value of lithium batteries has doubled. Although they have not yet been listed, they have indeed brought them. Given the considerable potential profits, how can they share it with others with such a star product?

And how suspicious of Catherine's behavior is, she just didn't tell these people clearly: We are here to get your lithium battery.

So Catherine’s deflation is beyond reason. But it was expected.

"Ah... so troublesome! Forget it, let's do it alone!"

Catherine was immediately angry, if that's the case, she just did it alone!

After reaching a certain level of irritability, Catherine became so angry.

Catherine can afford to lose. Even if you don't develop lithium batteries and even if your plans below fail, Catherine can still afford to lose.

It's not a question of money, in this regard. Catherine's mentality is very good.

The first condition to become a successful person is mentality. For a successful person, perhaps they may not be smart, but they must have a mentality of not admitting defeat and not afraid of losing.

But some people, some people just can't afford to lose.

These people can't just afford to lose. And the mind is a bit strange.

such a man. They will be depressed for a long time for a fellow person, and then claim to have some depression, and then when they find that there are people who complain about them, these people will fight back.

But these people will not counterattack in ordinary ways, they will personally attack the complainers.

It's not just a personal attack, they will also carry out the same attack on the family members who complain about it. These people have no shame and live in their own world all day long. They think this world revolves around them, they can criticize this world, and this world can only kneel down and accept it. And no resistance is allowed.

These people think they are amazing and awesome, and others are plagiarism. They are original. But they didn't realize that the people they wrote were happier, more faceless and skinless.

And they are also the same creature.

The work on the battery is so put down.

Catherine is not afraid of failure. Even if she fails, Catherine will continue to invest until she succeeds.

Catherine is already ready to fan Exxon fiercely. Since the other party disagrees with her cooperation case, she has to give the other party a nice look!

"Bring all the related patents of King Long Battery, let me take a look." Catherine decided to follow the company's current strategy. What foundation the company has now, let the company follow this path.

"okay."

Elsa decisively called Pu Guanshui and asked the other party to prepare the information.

"It's so convenient to have a running tuǐ..."

Elsa couldn't help but sigh at this moment.

It didn't take long for the company's documents to be placed on the desk of Catherine's office.

"There are still more."

Catherine nodded, these things are related products.

Catherine decided to look from the front to the back, from the earliest patents, to see what these people have studied.

But watching, Catherine was disappointed.

The other party does have some patents, but compared with the patents I want, these patents themselves are of no value. The above patents describe some things that Catherine can't use.

The more I looked at it, the more disappointed Catherine became. The things in it were very different from what she wanted.

"The patents related to nickel-iron batteries...Unfortunately, they are useless..."

Finally, Catherine found a patent related to batteries, but found that it was a patent for nickel-iron batteries. There was some excitement at first, but in less than a second, Catherine's excitement turned into disappointment.

Catherine shook her head. The original employees of the Golden Dragon Battery Company actually had someone studying such ancient batteries. This was indeed unexpected for Catherine. "Domain name, please familiarize yourself"

Perhaps because of psychological effects, the current Catherine actually sees the Golden Dragon Battery Company as a mob.

High-speed rail batteries and nickel-iron batteries, although both batteries are iron batteries, the former is the star of the future technology, while the latter is a kind of battery that is already aging.

The nickel-iron battery was developed by Thomas Edison. Its yīn pole is nickel oxide, its anode is iron, and its electrolyte (electrolyte) is potassium hydroxide.

The shortcomings of this kind of battery are obvious. The electric energy stored per unit mass is small, the electric energy cannot be stored well, the energy is low at low temperature, and the high manufacturing cost is highlighted when compared with lead-acid batteries. These are all nickel-iron batteries. Reasons for popularity.

Moreover, the performance of this kind of battery is also very bad, making this kind of battery charge slowly and put it out slowly. I can't even carry my laptop.

Nickel-iron batteries were invented in 1901 when they were used as an energy source for electric cars, such as Detroit electric cars. Edison manufactured these batteries between 1903 and 1940, which brought considerable profits to the company. To Edison's disappointment, no one accepted his battery to start the internal combustion engine. The electric vehicles mentioned above ceased production a few years after the introduction of these batteries. Finally, this kind of battery is only widely used in railway signal transmission and backup power.

When Catherine inquired about products and patents related to storage batteries, she talked with this type of battery. So when Catherine found out that she was still researching such a product, she was disappointed.

If the lithium battery is the current star product, then its own nickel-iron battery. It is a sunset product. It doesn't have much value in itself...

"It can effectively double the capacity of the battery and effectively reduce the self-discharge phenomenon...?"

But after taking a close look at one side, Catherine's eyes lit up.

This... seems to be a good thing!

Catherine immediately became excited.

If the power of nickel-iron batteries can be doubled and the self-discharge phenomenon can be reduced, doesn't it mean it can be used?

Of course, because this kind of product discharges very slowly, so it is not useful for the notebook-a good-looking novel:.

But if it is used for mobile phones, this is very suitable!

Nickel-iron batteries can be said to be a very useful battery. Because the solubility of the reactants in the electrolyte is very low. During the charging process, the formation of metallic iron is very slow due to the low solubility of ferroferric oxide. Therefore, the slow formation of iron crystals can protect the electrode well.

Moreover, even after such a product is severely discharged or stored for a long time, its charging performance will not be affected. And the battery is not easy to heat up when charging. The battery life is very long.

Although such batteries cannot replace lead storage batteries, they can compete with nickel-cadmium batteries.

If it is such a battery. Maybe you can use it on your phone?

Catherine immediately took out the patent alone.

Although it is a sunset product, as long as it can be used, Catherine made this decision.

But Catherine was not satisfied, such a product simply couldn't give Exxon a face.

At this moment Catherine shook her head.

If I have a polymer lithium battery and a lithium ion battery, it would be great. At this time, those guys will run over crying and crying, and then beg to cooperate with themselves...

This is called face slap...

Otherwise, if you develop a product with little practical value by yourself, others simply don't care about it.

what is this?

Catherine can only continue to watch this report at this time-other book friends are watching:.

She noticed that this document originated from a battery company named Big Mac.

Catherine continued to read enthusiastically, but to Catherine's disappointment, the following documents did not contain what Catherine needed, and the patents were thrown aside by Catherine.

"Sure enough, there is still a mob...Huh?" At this time Catherine saw another document.

"Is this the patent they applied for in the past two days?"

Catherine looked at the time. It was in 1972. It turned out to be a patent applied for after the establishment of the new company.

"Sodium battery..."

The corners of Catherine's mouth twitched.

This... is this a mockery?

Sodium is an essential element for the human body. The salt that people usually call is actually sodium chloride.

In the periodic table of elements, sodium and lithium are in the same family, and the outermost layer of both is an electron. This is junior high school chemistry.

Although the same family, but this is not something that can be substituted for each other.

Sodium and potassium are also of the same family. Potassium is below sodium, but people who eat too much sodium chloride can find water to drink. If you eat too much potassium chloride, you can try it. Maybe your heart stops immediately, and your eyes Close, a lifetime passed...

Oxygen and sulfur are also of the same family, but no one has ever said that hydrogen sulfide can be drunk as water... That is also a very scary thing.

So when Catherine saw the patent for the first time, Catherine wondered if her eyes were mocking herself and let herself see something that she shouldn't have seen.

Lithium can make lithium batteries, but sodium can not make sodium batteries...

"Sodium batteries? Sodium and lithium belong to the same family, aren't they? This seems to work as a battery?"

"Huh?" Seeing Elsa talking, Catherine was stunned for a moment-other book friends were watching.

"You said...sodium battery?"

"Yeah. Sodium battery, what's wrong, Kate?"

"No... nothing..."

What a sodium battery...?

What a sodium battery!

Catherine seemed to have a sudden feeling at this time.

This... seems to be a sodium battery!

Can sodium really be made into batteries?

Don't say it, this is true.

When Catherine founded the Golden Dragon Battery Company, many people just wanted to use them to cooperate with ExxonMobil. And when they developed such a goal of lithium batteries, they were a little dissatisfied.

At this time, someone wanted to prove their strength. At this time, I was doing research and research on my own.

The first thing they thought was that since the other party can develop lithium batteries, why can't they develop similar batteries?

Then, they noticed the element below lithium. That is sodium.

Well. Can sodium of the same family as lithium be made into batteries?

Not to mention, this idea was actually verified.

Someone used hún to combine ferric oxide, sodium oxide, manganese oxide and other materials into powder, then put it into a ball, and heat it at 900 degrees Celsius for 12 hours. The resulting material formula is sodium metal as an electrode. It has produced a high-efficiency charging and discharging nano battery, and it is not inferior to ExxonMobil's lithium battery!

And now it's in front of Catherine. That is their patent.

Although such a battery is still a laboratory product, there is no way to mass-produce it. But this is indeed a sodium battery.

"The person in charge of the project is called Anthony? Elsa, call this person over and I want to ask him some questions."

Catherine said so.

"okay."

Elsa made a call directly.

Not long after, the man named Anthony hurried over.

Anthony, who originally belonged to an ordinary employee under the Big Mac battery, was a little excited at this time-being called from behind the scenes of Catherine, this is not an ordinary honor!

"You are responsible for developing this?"

She handed over the patent and description of the sodium battery.

"Yes." Anthony took a look, then admitted.

"Why did you think of developing such a product?"

Anthony's face was a little red: "Because we think that a big company like us has our own dignity, we can develop a better product than the other party."

"So you have a plan like this?"

Anthony nodded.

In fact, after being acquired by the Ark Group, the original employees actually have a sense of superiority.

Ark Group! What is this place!

intel belongs here! Apple belongs here too! Angel Beat TV also belongs here!

Such a place, now they are in such a place, how can they not be excited? How can it not produce a sense of superiority?

With the sense of superiority, their self-confidence swelled.

And just when their self-confidence was inflated and self-confidence was bursting, they actually got the news that their company would be acquired only because the Ark Group wanted to cooperate with ExxonMobil on a small lithium battery. Cooperation only!

How can this make people feel comfortable?

These people soon felt that this should be Catherine's contempt for them.

Anthony is also one of these people.

In the end, Anthony was pushed out, and then they set up a research team, they are to prove their own value.

And the current sodium battery plan is their response to Catherine.

It's just that this plan has not been completed, they are still studying this plan, and their tasks have not yet been achieved.

"You used to be a Big Mac battery?"

Catherine asked again.

"Yes, Miss Edson-other book friends are watching:."

The other party nodded again.

"Then this nickel-iron battery patent was yours before?" Catherine asked.

"Oh, yes. But then our boss at the time bumped into the wall when promoting this product. We didn't continue to research. The nickel-iron battery is too old and its practical value is a bit small."

Catherine nodded.

It looks like this guy named Anthony is not bad, if the other party is on the road. You can also promote each other.

"If this battery is placed in a mobile phone to replace dry batteries, is it feasible?"

Catherine asked again.

"This... probably. Although the nickel-iron battery is very old and the discharge is not good, it is used to drive a mobile phone that can be driven by a dry battery. I think this should not be a problem. And the battery life is probably better than ordinary dry batteries. Better-at least better than the 3a battery."

1, 2, 3, 5, 7 batteries. These are the more commonly used batteries, of which No. 5 and No. 7 are particularly commonly used. The so-called aa battery is the No. 5 battery, and the aaa battery is the No. 7 battery! Both aa and aaa indicate the battery model.

"Speak clearly."

Catherine didn't want to go around with each other.

"Uh..." Anthony found that he had been slapped, he just didn't want to belittle his previous company's products: "It's probably about the same as the battery life of the current mobile phone dry battery. If it is a brand battery, we probably can't match it. other side."

It is incomparable to batteries like Duracell and Nanfu.

But there is no Nanfu now. Such a product has not yet been born.

"Really……"

Catherine was thinking about it in her heart.

She was a little disappointed, the difference between such a product and her own heart was still a bit big.

"but--"

Anthony thought of something at this time.

"What?" Catherine asked.

"If we adopt a one-piece model later, we should be able to achieve better battery life."

Put the dry battery into the phone. At least half of it is a gap, if it is a whole piece. The volume of the battery has increased by at least one-third, which means that more power may be used in between.

"Is this feasible?"

In Catherine's impression, it seems that in addition to polymer lithium batteries, other lithium-ion batteries have batteries inside. She doesn't know whether nickel-iron batteries are really good.

"of course!"

At this moment Anthony nodded sharply.

"Well... it doesn't seem to disappoint me..."

What Catherine didn't know was that in Catherine's original world, nickel-iron batteries were used in mobile phones!

A nickel-iron battery the size of an n95 battery can even have a capacity of 3.7v and 600mah!

Of course, that was later, and the current battery technology is not so advanced. Even the nickel-iron batteries that have been developed for a long time are bound by bottlenecks. There are really not many batteries that can reach the future.

"Well, this research will continue."

Catherine nodded.

"Our next generation." Catherine said to Elsa.

"I will also Mr. Cooper."

Rama NV is mainly responsible for signal research, and the appearance of mobile phones is all developed by Martin Cooper.

"Ok."

Then Catherine turned her head.

"I'll get in touch with Rama Lab later, and you will prepare for it. I want to discuss with them about the battery."

Catherine replied.

"Okay, Miss Edson."

Anthony answered.

"So where are you in the sodium battery research?" Catherine asked.

"This...Although our battery is available, it cannot appear as a product... In other words, we only have finished products for the time being... But as long as we give us time, I... we... should... No, we definitely will Something has been discovered!"

The other party's words gave Catherine the feeling that the other party seemed to be a little emboldened, but looking at the other's excited and leaping face, Catherine realized that things didn't seem to be the case.

Anthony was too moved...

Catherine nodded.

She has decided to rely on this improved nickel-iron battery first, and then develop her own sodium battery. This is my future strategy.

"Well, it shouldn't be limited to this..." Catherine murmured.

I am not short of money. Although I already have products, why do I keep staring at them?

Looking at it from another angle, it is not in your own interest to stare at a product by yourself!

After figuring this out, Catherine immediately understood.

——This thing is definitely not just the way it is now.

"Next, I have another task for you." Catherine said: "Next, I need you to research a new type of product..."

But Anthony was stunned after hearing Catherine's words ~www.wuxiaspot.com~.

As long as it is the metal elements that exist on the earth, it is necessary to try one by one whether it can be made into a battery. This is Catherine's plan.

To this end, Catherine invested 10 million US dollars to let these people look for new products.

It is not only iron, nickel, lithium, sodium, cadmium, and lead that can be used as batteries. Catherine remembers clearly that many batteries are suitable for storage batteries. Catherine just doesn't understand this aspect.

And now, she decided to find out these products one by one...

...

Second and third shifts. By the way, I made a personal attack on someone of my family.

It's not two in one, but I don't want to separate it, 6k words, absolutely two changes...

Well, start saving the manuscript now.
