MUMBAI, India, Sept. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617077427 A) filed by Tesla, Inc. on June 23, 2026, for Methods Of Producing Cathode Material Precursors Utilizing Cavitation, And Products Thereof.
Inventors include Zou, Feng; Lee, Sungjong; Liu, Yang; Hossain, Mohammad Jahangir; Li, Hongyang; Yang, Quanmin; Mardock, Michael Austin; and Van Regenmorter, Jonathan Alan.
The application for the patent was published on September 18, 2026, under issue no. 38/2026.
Abstract: A process for the production of a mixed metal hydroxide material for use as a cathode active material precursor is described, wherein the process utilizes cavitation to produce high quality materials through elimination of some processing steps and ingredients. In particular, a method of producing a mixed metal hydroxide material combining a first metal, a second metal, an oxidant and a liquid to form a reaction slurry is disclosed. The method may include applying cavitation to the liquid prior to the formation of the reaction slurry and/or applying cavitation to the liquid when the liquid is part of the reaction slurry. A method of forming an active material and a mixed metal hydroxide material for use as an active material precursor is also disclosed.
