In the specialized field of electrolyte materials for advanced batteries, the synthesis of high-performance additives is a critical area of research and manufacturing. Chloroethylene Carbonate (CEC) plays a pivotal role in these synthesis pathways, serving as a fundamental precursor for the production of Vinylene Carbonate (VC) and Fluoroethylene Carbonate (FEC). As a leading supplier of fine chemical intermediates, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is committed to providing the high-quality CEC required for these sophisticated chemical transformations.

The Importance of CEC in Electrolyte Synthesis

Chloroethylene Carbonate (CAS: 3967-54-2, Formula: C3H3ClO3) is not only valued as an electrolyte additive itself but also for its reactivity and structural suitability as a starting material for other functional carbonate compounds. Its molecular structure makes it an ideal building block for creating more complex molecules essential for modern battery technology.

Synthesis of Vinylene Carbonate (VC) from CEC

Vinylene Carbonate (VC) is a well-established electrolyte additive known for its ability to form a stable and protective SEI layer on graphite anodes in lithium-ion batteries. This SEI layer is crucial for preventing electrolyte decomposition and improving the overall cycle life and stability of the battery. The synthesis of VC often involves the dehydrochlorination of Chloroethylene Carbonate. This process typically requires specific reaction conditions, catalysts, and purification steps to yield high-purity VC. For manufacturers aiming to produce VC, securing a reliable source of high-quality CEC is the first step.

Synthesis of Fluoroethylene Carbonate (FEC) from CEC

Fluoroethylene Carbonate (FEC) is another advanced electrolyte additive that has gained significant traction due to its superior performance characteristics. FEC can enhance the thermal stability of the electrolyte and improve the high-voltage performance and cycling stability of lithium-ion batteries. The synthesis of FEC can be achieved through various routes, often involving the fluorination of precursors derived from CEC or its subsequent modifications. The ability to efficiently convert CEC into FEC allows battery developers to access electrolytes with enhanced capabilities for demanding applications.
