Innovative Solutions to Increase Performance and Reduce Costs
Our electrification solutions meet the highest requirements in terms of safety and chemical resistance, addressing the needs of the entire battery system. Our solutions and technologies include fluorinated electrolyte additives, salts, binders, and separators which improve the performance of the new generation of Li-Ion batteries, offer higher stability, and allow batteries to work at higher voltages while increasing range and reducing costs. Today we offer the broadest selection of technologies, materials, and ingredients for battery cells, cell structural components, and battery enclosures to increase performance, safety, and recycling of today's and tomorrow’s batteries.
Binder & Separator Coatings
- Solef® PVDF - It brings many advantages to the lithium battery industry when used as a binder in the formulation of electrodes as well as in the design of the separator. Solef® PVDF is available in both emulsion and suspension polymerization technologies, thereby producing a broader PVDF portfolio for anode, cathode, and separator applications in Li-ion batteries.
- SolgainTM - This is the latest Syensqo technology to improve safety and battery performance and reduce cost by enabling a much leaner and less capital-intensive process. It is also a way to manufacture “dry cathodes”, eliminating dangerous solvents and drying steps.
Conductive Salt
- LiFSI - This is a high purity salt with superior electrochemical and thermal stabilities. In particular, it has excellent low (-20°C) and high-temperature performance.
Solvents & Additives
- Energain® - This is the new generation of fluorinated solvents and formulations for High Voltage Electrolyte (up to 5V). This technology enables the extension of operating voltage and cell capacity.
Cell Structural Components & Enclosure
- Ryton® PPS - This is the ideal lighter weight choice for automotive parts exposed to high temperatures and electrical/electronic devices requiring high heat resistance.
- Evolite® - This is a comprehensive range of thermoplastic composites for demanding applications and is designed for use in ultra-lightweight composite applications.
Extractants
- CYANEX® - A series of extractants developed by Syensqo to provide the mining industry with an effective method for separating nickel, cobalt, and various other metals. It also enables the recovery of high purity lithium, cobalt, and nickel from spent lithium-ion batteries
