Application

Solid electrolytes (SEs) have become a practical option for lithium ion and lithium metal batteries because of their improved safety over commercially available ionic liquids. Solid electrolyte materials are highly conductive and made for advanced solid-state lithium ion battery technologies. These solutions are high purity and battery grade thus making them suitable as standards in LIB research.
