Syensqo to showcase materials portfolio designed for electric mobility

As a player in the transportation industry, Syensqo offers a portfolio of advanced materials that enable cleaner, safer, and more energy-efficient mobility. The company’s focus on battery materials and green hydrogen platforms is designed to accelerate the transition to a sustainable future.

At the Battery Show, Syensqo will launch its new PVDF grade, Solef ZA830. This latest addition to the company's PVDF grades is designed for batteries using high nickel cathode active materials, providing quality cathode adhesion and processability. Solef ZA830 is commercially available worldwide.

“We’re excited to launch our new Solef ZA830 PVDF at this year’s The Battery Show,” said Maurizio Gastaldi, Battery Materials Growth Platform Director. “This new grade is designed to meet the needs of our customers by enabling higher production speeds and lower processing costs. Compatible with a wide range of active battery materials, it helps to increase battery cycle life and energy density, delivering long-term performance even while operating at high voltage.”

In addition to PVDF, Syensqo provides a range of advanced materials and technologies for both current and next-generation electric vehicle batteries, battery packs, e-motors, and power electronics. It also offers solutions to expedite the transition to a green hydrogen economy.
