Batteries

High performance batteries in industrial and consumer markets need high performing materials

Indium- and gallium-containing compounds and metals play an important role in various battery and energy storage technologies. The most prominent examples include Lithium Thionyl Chloride (LiSOCl2) and alkaline (Zn/MnO2) battery chemistries.

Features

Our compounds participate in battery chemistries to improve performance and reliability.

100° Celsius
  • Lithium chloride batteries can operate at high temperatures by using a gallium based electrolyte made from our gallium trichloride compound
  • These batteries are used in downhole oil and gas production and exploration, and when the highest energy density together with ultra-stable voltage is needed.
Pourable compound for easier production processes
  • Our EZ-PourTM product is gallium chloride in pellet form; it does not clump or stick
  • EZ-PourTM simplifies the production process
Alkaline batteries
  • Indium inhibits outgassing and swelling in alkaline batteries
  • Indium hydroxide or indium trichloride (in both powder or dissolved form) are available
Shot, solutions, and powder compounds
  • Depending on the manufacturing setup, different forms of indium are required
  • We supply multiple concentration levels, shot sizes, or ingot shapes
