Batteries
Indium Corporation’s compounds are used in the battery industries to improve the operational efficiency in a variety of battery technologies. Alkaline batteries, some types of lithium ion batteries, and zinc air batteries are all examples where our compounds are used to:
- improve battery efficiency
- replace mercury
- act as an inhibitor to hydrogen outgassing
The indium compounds are used in a variety of ways inside the battery: Indium can be alloyed with other metal powders, plated onto connectors inside the battery, or added to the electrolyte.
Of specific interest to the battery industry are our following compounds:

The Perfect Sputtering Target Bond
Why do we care so much about target bonding? This is important because a sputtering target that truly performs will allow greater process flexibility, and higher throughput. An introduction from Eliminating Bond Stresses of Sputtering Targets at Operating Temperatures: “…It was observed…
Bonded Sputtering Targets are a Bi-Metallic Assembly
Whenever two materials with different coefficient of thermal expansion values are bonded together, they will expand and contract as the temperature changes. Assuming these two materials are bonded rigidly, there are two things that can happen as the temperature changes: 1) the bond will break apart…
NanoBond® is a Fluxless Process
Fluxes are an interesting element of working with many solder applications. With so many specialized fluxes there is usually a perfectly-tailored flux for removing oxides from any solderable surface. Even though we love fluxes at Indium Corporation – not all of our customers share that same affection. It…
