Driving the transition to e-mobility

BASF can help meet these challenges with our dispersion expertise through the development of advanced anode binders that optimize overall battery performance and provide cost-effective and more-sustainable solutions for battery manufacturing. By offering distinct battery binders, BASF aims to drive the mass adoption of EVs and support the transition to e-mobility. This development is particularly relevant for the battery industry, including lithium battery manufacturers, because it offers improved battery materials for more-efficient and higher-performing EV batteries.

Improving charge capacity

BASF has developed a binder series for anodes in lithium-ion batteries, which addresses the need for technical improvements in charge capacity. These battery binders play a crucial role in enhancing the performance and energy density of lithium-ion batteries, helping advance battery technology for EVs. Explore our product portfolio of battery binders for high-performing lithium-ion anodes!

Licity®

Electric mobility is among the most promising solutions to today's climate and energy challenges. The key to successful electric vehicles and their mass adoption lies with the technology of lithium-ion batteries. But there is still need for technical improvement - especially, when it comes to charge capacity. By envisioning distinct materials for lithium-ion batteries we at BAS can help to - quite literally - drive this change. Therefore, we developed a new binder series for anodes in lithium-ion batteries.
