Visit Venator’s battery experts at Stand B292, Hannover Messe, Germany – 15-17 May 2018
Wynyard, UK – Battery producers looking to source high quality raw materials for the production of lithiumion, lead-acid and primary-alkaline power packs should visit Venator at The Battery Show Europe in Hannover, Germany, in May.
Venator, previously Huntsman Pigments and Additives, is a leading name in the manufacture of high purity titanium dioxide pigments and performance additives, and produces and supplies a range of materials designed to boost performance in a variety of battery applications.
Products that will be promoted at The Battery Show Europe include HOMBITEC® BM – a family of titanium dioxide-based precursors for the production of lithium titanate battery anode materials. Venator’s HOMBITEC® range for the battery industry includes a ready-to-use lithium titanate grade – HOMBITEC® LTO5. Used to replace carbon-based anodes such as graphite, lithium titanate can create safer lithium-ion batteries with an improved ability of fast charging and longer lifetime.
For lead-acid batteries, Venator produces a wide range of BLANC FIXE™ and SACHTOPERSE® barium sulphates that can enhance the in-service lifetime of negative active materials. Venator has been providing these materials to the market for many years, delivering benefits such as improved cold cranking and a longer lifespan for automotive and industrial batteries.
Russell Evans, Business Development Director at Venator, said: “With such powerful performance properties, interest in our products is increasing across a range of battery applications. In stationary energy storage, our products are used to make batteries that provide a back up power source for the utility industry. They are also popular in mobile applications to power forklift trucks and automated guided vehicles. Helping to deliver fast charge and discharge performance, our latest products for lithium titanate chemistry favour the needs of electrified public transportation systems of the future. But ultimately, whatever the application, we can support the needs of battery manufacturers through our extensive range of barium sulphate and specialized titanium dioxide materials.”
