Sieving Electrolyte Powders for Advanced Battery and Electronic Applications
What are Electrolyte Powders? Electrolyte powders are specialized materials used in various high-performance electrochemical systems, most notably lithium-ion and solid-state batteries. These powders typically contain lithium salts and other conductive additives that enable efficient ion transport between electrodes. Beyond batteries, electrolyte powders are also used in electrolytic capacitors, fuel cells, and metal finishing applications, where particle consistency and purity are equally critical.
Contract Manufacturing Experience
Uniform particle size distribution significantly affects performance across multiple electrochemical systems:
In battery applications, consistent particle sizing ensures uniform conductivity, chemical stability, and optimized ion flow.
In electrolytic capacitors, precise sizing contributes to stable capacitance and longer component life.
In fuel cells, ultra-fine electrolyte powders are essential for efficient ion conduction and performance under high-temperature conditions.
In metal finishing and electroplating, consistent powder sizing ensures even metal deposition and bath chemistry control.
Traditional screening equipment often struggles with electrolyte powders due to their tendency to agglomerate, retain static charges, and blind screen meshes, reducing throughput and consistency.
Elcan Industries specializes in advanced sieving solutions tailored to the unique challenges of electrolyte powders. Our proprietary Hi-Sifter sieving machine applies strong vertical energy to efficiently break apart agglomerates, preventing screen mesh blinding and achieving consistent particle sizing down to 10 microns. For applications demanding ultra-fine precision, our Elbow Jet Air Classifier delivers screenless classification down to 1 micron, ideal for solid-state batteries, fuel cells, and capacitors. Additionally, our Electromagnetic Separator Equipment(Class II Div II & UL rated) achieves up to 18,500 Gauss, ensuring high-purity powder by removing metallic contaminants—an essential step in electronics and energy storage applications. With our advanced toll processing facility, manufacturers can trial, refine, and scale their processes efficiently.
