General description

Lithium ethoxide is an organometallic compound widely used as a precursor to fabricate lithium-ion batteries.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Click here for more information.

Application

Lithium ethoxide can be used as a precursor:
  • To fabricate chemically inert, Li-ion conducting, and electronically insulating coating on the cathode materials. This coating helps to avoid unwanted reactions between the solid-state electrolyte and the cathode in all-solid-state batteries.
  • To produce an amorphous Li-Zr-O coating on the surface of high-Ni cathodes, to improve the surface stability and cycling performance of lithium-ion batteries.
