Novel Advanced Li-ion Electrolyte Innovation

Page last modified
April 11 2024

The proper choice of battery electrolyte is key to achieving safe and robust operation, fast-charging, long cycle life and operability in both hot and cold environments.

Li-ion battery electrolytes typically employ LiPF6 salt. However, the thermal instability of LiPF6 limits operable cell temperature and cycle life and necessitates expensive battery pack cooling systems. BroadBit Batteries introduces ProLion: its new, high-performance electrolyte for Li-ion cells. This new Li-ion electrolyte overcomes the key performance limitations of current Li-ion electrolytes and enables higher temperature operation, improved safety, longer cycle-life, faster charging and higher power (especially in cold conditions).

With BroadBit’s ProLion electrolytes, Li-ion batteries set new world record cycle life in three important product categories:

  • Highest-Performing LCO batteries
  • Cost-effective LFP batteries
  • Co & Ni-free 4.2 V LMFP batteries

And enables:

  • Extended cycle-life NMC batteries
