01 / OVERVIEW

About this material

LiFSI does not hydrolyse to HF the way LiPF6 does, which makes it attractive for low-temperature, high-voltage and long-life cells. It also forms a more conductive, more stable SEI on graphite and a better passivation layer on aluminium.

The practical barriers are cost and corrosion. At high potential, LiFSI can attack the aluminium current collector unless a passivating additive is present, and residual chloride from synthesis accelerates that attack. The ≤10 ppm chloride limit on this grade is the specification that matters.

04 / QUALITY & HANDLING

Documentation, controls and care

Quality controls

  • Certificate of analysis per batch
  • Moisture by Karl Fischer, reported per lot
  • Trace metal screening
  • Retained samples held for 12 months

Handling & storage

  • Hygroscopic — weigh and transfer in a dry room or glove box.
  • Store sealed under argon; discard if the powder cakes or discolours.
  • Do not blend into an electrolyte above 60 °C; decomposition products form above that.
