Prevent costly EV battery recalls with Stanyl® (PA46) SuccinoNitrile (SN)

Prevent costly EV battery recalls with Stanyl® (PA46) SuccinoNitrile (SN)

In the world of battery-powered vehicles, today lithium-ion batteries (LiBs) are the preferred solution due to their higher output and energy density. LiB cells are the basic building blocks of a battery. The cells contain the electrodes, separator and electrolyte and are stacked together inside a housing. Since the electrolyte is highly flammable, LiBs and the materials used in battery modules and packs, must meet very high safety standards. This to prevent short circuits, or leakages that could potentially lead to fires or explosions.

Overcoming barriers to EV adoption with high-performance electrolyte additives

Overcoming barriers to EV adoption with high-performance electrolyte additives

Electric vehicles (EVs) are key to global decarbonization, driven by the declining cost of lithium-ion batteries (LiBs). However, safety and performance challenges remain as manufacturers push for higher energy density. Envalior’s Stanyl® SN-PURE enhances battery stability, safety, and lifespan, ensuring EVs remain efficient and reliable.
