01 / OVERVIEW

About this material

Above 4.35 V the standard carbonate blend starts to oxidise and the aluminium current collector begins to dissolve. This formulation replaces part of the cyclic carbonate with a fluorinated co-solvent and adds a passivating salt that builds a protective film on the aluminium surface.

The result holds to 4.5 V with a conductivity of 8–10 mS/cm — slightly lower than the baseline, which is the price of the fluorinated component. It is intended for NCM811 and high-voltage LCO work where the extra 0.15 V is worth 8–10% energy density.

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

  • Handle in a dry room or glove box; hygroscopic and HF-forming on air exposure.
  • Store sealed under argon at 5–25 °C, away from light.
  • Do not open a partly used bottle repeatedly — dispense into a septum vial.
