About Silniva
Silniva was founded in 2015 by John Carberry & Tim Wilson and backed by Artiman Ventures to develop novel nano-silicon powders, slurries and structures using Silniva's and patented manufacturing technologies.
Our first products are nano-sized silicon powders & slurries that are >98% free from oxygen and used in to make better ceramics, allows and silanes/silicons.
We started the company wiith the goal of reducing the carbon footprint that burning fossil fuel has on our planet. We are developing silicon thermal cells using our nano silicon slurries. If we pull this off we will replace the vapor compressors used in cooling and create a new industry to tap 200-600C waste heat recovery from fossil fuel combustion.
