The new 20-layer cells use a low-flammability electrolyte, distinguishing them from previous lithium-sulfur and lithium-ion cells that employed high-flammability electrolytes.

The cells perform nearly twice as well as modern lithium-ion (Li-ion) cells in terms of gravimetric density, yet maintain an identical volumetric energy density of over 400 Watt-hours per kilo.

The 20-layer cells, similar in size to existing lithium-ion cells but half the weight, offer a considerable weight reduction advantage.
