Lithium battery

To improve the safety and performance of the lithium batteries they produce, manufacturers require high-quality separating fluids. These thin, porous membranes physically separate the anode and cathode while facilitating ion transport. The Shell Risella X range of process oils provides an effective base for lithium battery separators – delivering lower costs through lower evaporation and oil loss, reduced maintenance disruption through a more consistent molecular structure and greater chemical consistency with a narrower boiling range.
