BYK-ET 3031

BYK ET 3031 is an aqueous wetting and dispersing additive for aqueous concentrates of electrically conductive carbons and for the formulation of highly filled electrode slurries of Li-ion cells. The stabilizing effect of BYK ET 3031 shortens the dispersion process of carbon black and other conductive carbons (e.g. Ketjenblack®, carbon nanotubes, etc.). Adding BYK ET 3031 achieves better stabilization of the particles, leading to reduced viscosity of the slurry compared to standard systems without dispersant. BYK ET 3031 facilitates the formulation of electrode slurries for Li-ion cells with a higher solid content. The higher solid content in turn accelerates the drying process and improves the productivity of the electrode manufacturing.
