Product Technical Details

Product Overview

Lithium Difluoro(Oxalate)Borate, commonly known as LiDFOB, represents a critical advancement in modern energy storage chemistry. As a high-performance borate salt, it is specifically engineered to serve as a key additive or primary solute in lithium-ion battery electrolytes. Our manufacturing process ensures exceptional chemical stability and purity, making it an ideal choice for manufacturers seeking to optimize battery performance across various demanding applications.

This specialized chemical compound functions by forming a robust solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) on the anode surface. This protective layer significantly reduces impedance growth during cycling, thereby extending the overall lifespan of the energy cell. Furthermore, it offers superior protection for the aluminum current collector against corrosion, which is a common failure mode in high-voltage battery systems.
