CMC binders for battery anodes and separators
Optimize and strengthen lithium-ion batteries
CMC to optimize and strengthen cell materials
AkuPure™ sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is especially suited for aqueous binder systems in lithium-ion battery anodes.
SBR alone cannot generate sufficient coating rheology and slurry stability for graphite powder. Our AkuPure™ CMC can be coupled with graphite and styrene butadiene rubber (SBR) to improve battery performance.
- Strengthens copper collector as an anode binder
- Reinforces separator and prevents dendrite penetration as a ceramic binder
Applying AkuPure™ CMC provides excellent dispersion of graphite particles and homogenous distribution of the binder. Secondary lithium-ion batteries made using our CMC show high capacity retention at standard and high charge/discharge rates (C-rates).
We are committed to supporting our customers by providing high-quality ingredients. Our continual investment in R&D, testing, and manufacturing capabilities makes us an agile partner and a reliable CMC supplier.
