Orion S.A. announced the launch of PRINTEX kappa 10, a high-quality conductive additive that will supply surging demand from producers of lithium-ion batteries for electric vehicles, energy storage systems and consumer applications.
The new product, produced with furnace technology in Europe and eventually in Asia, marks a crucial expansion of Orion’s portfolio of conductive additives. The company also makes other kappa grades with the acetylene process.
PRINTEX kappa 10 facilitates a more efficient transfer of electrical energy within lithium-ion batteries. It forms a percolating network that enables the electrons to flow. This enhances the performance and power response during both charging and discharging.
The conductive additive works for both anode and cathode. It is also compatible with lithium-ferrous-phosphate (LFP) batteries, nickel-manganese-cobalt (NMC) and other batteries.
"At Orion, we're focused on products enabling more efficient and powerful lithium-ion batteries that help to decarbonize mobility. PRINTEX kappa 10 is a key part of our strategy for expanding our business for such conductive additives,” Orion CEO Corning Painter said.
