Supporting the Development of Battery Technology
We see our customers in the energy storage and batteries sectors rapidly developing as renewable energy adoption is more feasible and widespread as unit costs are reducing in price.
Of the wide range of energy storage solutions, we know that lithium-ion batteries are predicted to become the cheapest and main battery technology of the future. Whether including graphite structures, and lithium complexes, including lithium titanate, here at Goodfellow we have a range of materials to support your need for small-quantity specialist materials.
For alternative battery applications, such as potassium ion batteries, other mineral solutions are available beyond lithium, cobalt and liquid metal batteries, such as sulfur for electrodes. Where unusual combinations of materials are required that are of very high purities and qualities, with over 170,000 advanced materials available, our expert Technical Solutions team of scientists and engineers offers you support for your product customization needs. Our customers pride us on quality, professional support and speed. Goodfellow’s materials all meet the ISO 9001 standards and accreditation.
Next-gen Lithium-ion Energy Storage Technologies
We offer a range of new lithium-ion battery anode materials, including lithium titanium oxide (LI4Ti5O12), a key material in next-generation lithium-ion energy storage technologies due to its excellent safety properties, cyclic performance and very high-rate capabilities.
For cathodes we also supply lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) for solid-state energy storage devices, lithium manganese oxide (LiMn2O4) as an environmentally friendly alternative and lithium nickel manganese oxide (LiN0.5Mn1.5O4), another next-generation battery material that has high thermal stability and offers a nontoxic alternative.
