Batteries
We have applied our expertise in surface modification to batteries, creating unique battery additives.
Having developed a deep understanding of chemistry over decades, we are able to apply this know-how and solve practical problems during the energy transition. In battery manufacturing, our dispersants help improve porcessability of electrode slurries, whilst providing performance benefits such as improved capacity retention.
We can help you to optimize your battery manufacturing processes, save energy and maximize performance with our technical expertise and ongoing research and development program.
Battery dispersants
Enhance capacity retention
As experts in chemical synthesis, we have developed Electrosperse™ 4000, a polymeric amide dispersant designed to form concentrated carbon dispersions (slurries) in NMP (N-Methyl-2-pyrrolidone), the industry standard solvent used to manufacture battery electrodes.
Electrosperse™ 4000 improves the distribution uniformity of conductive carbon particles in electrodes. This enhances capacity retention at high charge-discharge rates. We are also developing dispersants for water-based formulations, as well as solid state batteries.
