General description

Our 1.2 M LiPF6 in EC/EMC=30/70 (w/w) + 1 wt.% VC, battery-grade electrolyte solution is designed specifically for use in lithium-ion batteries. This electrolyte contains a high concentration of lithium hexafluorophosphate in a carefully formulated mixture of ethylene carbonate and ethyl methyl carbonate with a vinylene carbonate additive, ensuring excellent battery performance. Our electrolyte solution is of battery-grade quality, with minimized impurities of water, acid, and metals. It is packaged in an aluminum bottle under inert, dry conditions
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more information.

Application

We designed our 1.2 M LiPF6 in EC/EMC=30/70 (w/w) + 1 wt.% VC battery-grade electrolyte solution to offer top-notch safety, thermal stability, and exceptional performance for use in lithium-ion batteries. Our careful formulation of ethylene carbonate (EC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), and vinylene carbonate (VC) provides superior electrochemical stability and low viscosity. Additionally, the VC additive contributes to the formation of a solid-electrolyte interface (SEI) during operation, which enhances performance at high operating temperatures, including rate capability and cycling performance.,Our electrolyte exhibits compatibility with a broad range of cathode and anode materials, such as graphite, lithium metal, silicon, LFP, and NMCs, giving versatile battery design options for numerous applications.
