This is the best summary I could come up with:

Find the right mixture of electrolyte materials and you can end up with a faster charging, more energy dense battery for an EV, the grid or even an electric airplane.

“The problem is there’s too many candidates and not enough time,” Aionics co-founder and CEO Austin Sendek told TechCrunch during the recent Up Summit event in Dallas.

The company is super-charging its effort by using software developed in the Accelerated Computational Electrochemical systems Discovery program at Carnegie Mellon University.

This chatbot tool, which has been trained on chemistry textbooks and scientific papers selected by Aionics, isn’t used for the actual discovery, but it can be used by scientists to eliminate certain molecules that wouldn’t be useful in a particular application, Sendek explained.

Once the billions of candidates have been screened and narrowed down to just a couple — or designed using the generative AI model — Aionics sends its customer samples for validation.

Chement, a startup co-founded by Viswanathan and that is also partnered with Aionics, is working on ways to to use renewable electricity and raw materials to drive chemical reactions to make zero-emissions products like cement.
