Product Introduction

Lithium Difluoro(oxalato)borate 99.5% Battery Grade is a fluorinated borate salt commonly used as an additive or co-salt when the electrolyte program needs a more interface-oriented component.

Compared with a plain baseline salt, LiDFOB is usually chosen for formulation trials that are trying to tune film formation, high-voltage behavior, or interphase stability. It should be handled as a dry formulation ingredient whose exact role depends on the full solvent and additive system.

Key Features

  • Fluorinated oxalato borate anion for interphase and additive studies.
  • Lithium borate salt supports SEI and CEI formulation comparisons.
  • Solid form enables controlled low-dose additive preparation.
  • Suitable for high-voltage and storage-stability screening with verified compatibility.

Lithium Difluoro(oxalato)borate (LiDFOB) is a moisture-sensitive solid that requires strict anhydrous handling conditions. Exposure to ambient air will cause degradation and loss of electrochemical activity.

  • Atmosphere Requirement: Store and handle LiDFOB exclusively under inert gas (argon or nitrogen) to prevent moisture absorption.
  • Glovebox Use: All manipulations must be conducted in a glovebox with controlled inert atmosphere to maintain anhydrous conditions.
  • Container Integrity: Keep the material in a hermetically sealed container when not in use.

This procedure ensures safe transfer and preparation of LiDFOB for electrolyte formulation. Strict adherence to anhydrous and oxygen-free conditions is critical to preserve material quality.

Required Equipment: Inert atmosphere glovebox, Moisture-free spatula, Pre-dried glass vial and cap

  1. Equilibrate in glovebox
    Allow the LiDFOB container to equilibrate inside the glovebox before opening.
  2. Weigh out powder
    Transfer the desired amount of LiDFOB powder into a pre-dried glass vial using a moisture-free spatula.
  3. Seal and store
    Seal the vial tightly and remove from the glovebox for immediate use or short-term storage.

How does the 99.5% purity and battery-grade moisture classification of LiDFOB improve lithium battery performance and stability relative to standard-grade materials?

The 99.5% purity ensures minimal impurities that could catalyze side reactions, while battery-grade moisture verification guarantees robust stability under electrochemical cycling. This combination is explicitly engineered in the product to improve lithium battery performance and stability, as stated in the key features.

What handling environment is mandatory when using LiDFOB to ensure its battery-grade integrity in electrolyte formulations?

LiDFOB must be handled exclusively under moisture-controlled inert gas or dry room environments, as specified in the product's important notice. This constraint preserves the battery-grade moisture specification and prevents degradation of the solid white powder, which is packaged in a secure 50g container to insulate material properties.

What are the recommended storage conditions for maintaining the 99.5% purity and low moisture content of LiDFOB for long-term research use?

Store LiDFOB in its original secure 50g container under a dry, inert atmosphere to prevent moisture absorption. The container is designed to insulate material properties during storage and shipping, and the product should only be opened in a dry room or glovebox to maintain battery-grade integrity.

The ATOMFAIR® Lithium Difluoro(oxalato)borate (LiDFOB) offers 99.5% battery-grade purity with verified moisture control, making it suitable for advanced electrolyte research and lithium battery optimization. However, its strict handling requirements under inert atmosphere and limitation to R&D use are key operational considerations.

Positive

  • High purity for reproducible research: At 99.5% purity, the material ensures consistent and reliable electrochemical performance in advanced lithium battery studies, minimizing variability from impurities.
  • Battery-grade moisture control: The product is verified as battery-grade moisture, providing robust stability that enhances lithium battery performance and longevity in electrolyte formulations.

Trade-offs

  • Moisture-sensitive handling required: To preserve battery-grade integrity, the material must be handled exclusively under moisture-controlled inert gas or dry room environments, adding infrastructure demands.
  • Restricted to laboratory R&D use: This product is strictly designated for laboratory research and development only, limiting its applicability in commercial or production-scale battery manufacturing.
