General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products that adhere to one of the four categories of Greener Alternatives. This is an enabling product that plays a crucial role in the formulation of lithium-ion batteries with increased nickel content in the cathode′s layered oxides. This contributes to higher energy density and improved overall battery performance. Click here for more information.

Application

The presence of electrolyte additives enhances the performance of lithium ion batteries by improving their thermal stability and ionic conductivity. Additives also reduce the flammability of electrolytes and provide overcharge protection. Adiponitrile finds application as additive in lithium ion batteries.
