Sila Nanotechnologies
Sila Nanotechnologies is a Specialty Polymers, Coatings & Surfaces company founded in 2011 and based in Alameda, USA. It has raised $1.2B in total funding, most recently a Series G in 2024.
Founded in 2011 in Alameda, California, Sila Nanotechnologies develops nano-engineered silicon anode materials that drop into existing lithium-ion cells to raise energy density by roughly 20% without changing cell format. The company has raised over $1.3B and built its Moses Lake, Washington plant, the first commercial-scale silicon anode facility in North America, to supply automotive programs including Mercedes-Benz and Panasonic. Its materials shift the bottleneck of battery performance from cell design to the chemistry of the anode itself.
A leading specialty-materials supplier whose silicon anode chemistry is already shipping into automotive EV programs at commercial scale.
