Glatfelter Announces Tunable Lithium-ion Battery Separator at The Battery Show
October 03 2024 - 9:00AM
Glatfelter Corporation (NYSE: GLT), a leading global supplier of
engineered materials, is proud to announce the launch of its
OmniSep™ Battery Separator, a cutting-edge solution for the
lithium-ion battery market. This innovative product is the result
of extensive research and development aimed at advancing electrical
energy storage technologies.
OmniSep™ was developed to meet the demand for a battery
separator that supports high charge and discharge rates (up to 16C
pulse discharge), enhances safety, offers customizable features to
suit various battery chemistries, and is fully manufactured in the
United States.
The OmniSep™ production platform allows the separator to be
tailored to the specific application, offering high porosity for
increased ionic conductivity and fast charging capabilities. Its
pore size can be made smaller to increase shelf-life. Various
polymers can be used to meet the temperature and safety
requirements of each application. The standard grades of 15 and
22µm are thermally stable up to 150ºC, with developmental grades
stable up to 200ºC, eliminating the need for any ceramic
coatings.
OmniSep™’s advanced fiber design enhances hydrophilicity,
promoting fast wet-out and filling, lower ionic resistance, and
suitability for aqueous systems. This versatility has already
garnered interest from several battery manufacturers who are
supplying “extreme” batteries.
Glatfelter will introduce OmniSep™ at the Volta Foundation
Reception on Wednesday, October 9th, from 5:00 PM to 8:00 PM, in
conjunction with The Battery Show. For more information or to
request samples, please contact info@glatfelter.com.
