November 30, 2007 – Vol.12 No.36 ExxonMobil Chemical Develops New Film Technologies For Lithium-ion Batteries. The separator film has the potential to improve the energy efficiency and affordability of next generation hybrid and electric vehicles. Separator film, which physically separates the cathode and anode within a battery, yet allows ions to pass through it, is an integral part of battery system design and critical to overall performance. ExxonMobil Chemical, and codeveloper ExxonMobil's Japanese affiliate Tonen Chemical, say that new film technologies are expected to significantly enhance the power, safety and reliability of lithium-ion batteries, thereby helping speed the adoption of these smaller and lighter batteries into the next wave of lower-emission vehicles.
The new technology platform builds on twenty years experience in lithium-ion battery separators. The companies will present the new film technologies at the 23rd Electric Vehicle Symposium and Exposition (EVS-23) in Anaheim, Calif. on December 2-5, 2007. ExxonMobil Chemical is a global leader in technology, product quality and customer service with petrochemical manufacturing and/or marketing operations around the world. Tonen Chemical is the world’s second-largest producer of separator film for lithium-ion batteries. (11/29/07)
