Altech Chemicals

Alumina firm moves to next stage of commercialising its lithium-ion battery boosting material

Battery materials firm Altech Chemicals is in the final development stage of its high purity alumina (HPA) grade material designed to increase performance of lithium-ion battery anodes.

The Western Australian-based company is proceeding to an independent verification phase of its method for the alumina coating of graphite particles.

Tests prove need for high purity alumina in making lithium-ion batteries last longer

Australian battery materials firm Altech Chemicals has released test results that show high purity (99.99%) 4N alumina prevents sodium leaching when used on a lithium-ion battery separator.

Test work by Germany’s Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems (IKTS) showed high purity alumina (HPA) could prevent battery failure modes including thermal runaway, lithium plating on the anode and life cycle reduction.
