General Motors and Forge Nano have also entered a strategic partnership agreement to collaborate on potential atomic layer deposition applications for GM batteries.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"background: #F9F9F9; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt 0in;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\">Atomic layer deposition is a surface engineering technique that applies thin-film coatings to battery materials to control chemistry and structure at atomic scale. Using its Atomic Armor technology, Forge Nano will develop thin-film coatings for GM to pursue battery performance enhancements and cost reductions. Forge Nano will also build prototype lithium-ion battery cells at its Thornton, Colorado headquarters to showcase the capabilities of its technology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"background: #F9F9F9; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt 0in;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\">This investment highlights GM\u2019s continued commitment to finding innovative technology solutions that can improve battery performance and lower EV costs to make them an attractive option for all vehicle buyers. The investment also positions Forge Nano to further enhance its technology, as it plans to expand its battery material coating business and semiconductor footprint.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"background: #F9F9F9; box-sizing: border-box; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; orphans: 2; widows: 2; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; word-spacing: 0px; margin: 0in 0in 7.5pt 0in;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10.5pt; font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #333333;\">\u201cGM Ventures\u2019 primary goal is to bring disruptive technology into the GM ecosystem to improve products and processes,\u201d said Anirvan Coomer, managing director of GM Ventures. \u201cForge Nano\u2019s Atomic Armor technology has game-changing potential for our battery materials. They have already demonstrated the ability to expand cathode capabilities, which is the most expensive battery cell component.
