01 / Why XnergyWhy Choose Xnergy as Your Battery Electrolyte Supplier
Choosing a battery electrolyte supplier for a serious research program or production line is not a commodity decision. Lithium-ion electrolyte chemistry is sensitive to ppm-level moisture, trace metallic impurities, and formulation consistency between lots. A supplier that gets any of these wrong can destroy six months of cell testing or silently degrade a production run you only notice in field returns. This is why the choice of battery-grade electrolyte supplier matters as much as the choice of cathode or anode material.
Xnergy Materials was founded as a dedicated battery electrolyte manufacturer. We do not sell industrial-grade chemicals, adjacent products for paints or coatings, or reagent-grade bulk for the chemical industry. Every product on our lithium battery electrolyte catalog is battery-grade, intended for cells, and manufactured with ≤10 ppm moisture across every SKU.
Four things distinguish us from alternative battery electrolyte suppliers:
- Volume range from grams to tonnes. Most research-chemical suppliers cap orders at 5 kg. Most bulk producers won't sell below a metric tonne. We serve both ends from one catalog — 500g online checkout for the bench, up to 40-tonne orders for production.
- Competitive battery electrolyte pricing. As a direct manufacturer rather than a redistributor, our pricing is typically 20–40% below Sigma-Aldrich, TCI, and other research-chemical channels for comparable battery-grade lithium-ion electrolyte products.
- Global shipping with full hazmat support. Battery electrolyte requires specialized UN-certified packaging and regulatory documentation for international transport. We ship to North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Middle East, and beyond, handling all hazmat compliance internally.
- 30 years of formulation experience. Our EF-series production electrolyte formulations are currently used by leading global cell manufacturers in automotive, energy storage, consumer electronics, and power-tool applications.

02 / Research CatalogLithium Battery Electrolyte Catalog: 28 Research-Grade SKUs Online
Our online lithium battery electrolyte catalog is designed for researchers who need battery-grade purity in small quantities without the eight-week quote cycle typical of specialty chemical channels. Every product ships with ≤10 ppm moisture, battery-grade purity, and transparent online pricing — starting at 500 grams.
The 28 SKUs break down into four families of battery electrolyte components:
Pre-mixed lithium-ion and sodium-ion electrolyte formulations
Ready-to-use battery electrolyte solutions for the most common research chemistries, saving researchers the glovebox weighing step:
- 1M LiPF6 in EC : DEC = 1:1 (v/v) + 5% FEC — the canonical silicon-anode lithium-ion electrolyte for research
- 1M LiPF6 in EC/DMC/DEC = 1:1:1 — three-solvent baseline lithium-ion battery electrolyte
- 1M NaPF6 in EC/DMC = 1:1 — standard sodium-ion battery electrolyte
- KPF6-based potassium-ion electrolyte across EC, DMC, PC, DME and TEP solvent systems
Battery-grade lithium, sodium, and potassium salts
The ion-conducting salts at battery grade. For lithium-ion battery electrolyte formulation: LiPF6, LiFSI, LiTFSI, LiBF4. For sodium-ion electrolyte research: NaFSI, NaPF6, NaTFSI. For potassium-ion work: KPF6, KFSI, KTFSI.
Battery-grade electrolyte solvents
The carbonate and phosphate solvents that form the bulk of any lithium battery electrolyte: EC, DMC, EMC, DEC, PC for conventional lithium-ion work, plus TEP, TPP, and fluorobenzene for flame-retardant and high-voltage battery electrolyte research.
Functional additives for battery electrolyte
The two-to-five-percent ingredients that do most of the interesting work in a battery electrolyte formulation — SEI formation, cathode protection, thermal stability, gas suppression. Our catalog includes FEC, VC, DTD, PST (propanesultone), and SN (succinonitrile) — the additives that appear in roughly 80% of published lithium-ion battery electrolyte studies over the past five years.

03 / ProductionEF-Series Production Electrolyte Formulations: From Kilograms to Tonnes
For battery manufacturers moving from pilot to mass production, the EF-series production electrolyte line is Xnergy's flagship manufacturing-scale offering. Thirteen formulations, each engineered for a specific combination of cell form factor and application, each already validated at leading global battery manufacturers.
Unlike research-grade electrolytes which are sold by chemistry, EF-series production lithium battery electrolyte is specified by form factor and application — because the same chemistry performs differently in an 18650 cylindrical versus a 280 Ah prismatic cell. Wetting dynamics, gas management, and thermal behavior all depend on cell geometry. The EF matrix below reflects this reality:
EF-Series Battery Electrolyte Formulation Matrix
View Full EF Series| Model | Form factor | Functional advantage | Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| EF-1 | Cylindrical | Standard cylindrical electrolyte. High capacity, overcharge resistance. | 3C digital |
| EF-2 | Cylindrical | LFP-tuned. Long cycle life, 2000 cycles at 45°C. | ESS, EV power |
| EF-3 | Cylindrical | High-rate. 15C discharge capable. | Power tools, start-stop, high-power EV |
| EF-4 | Cylindrical | LFP cathode, wide temperature range, 3C discharge. | EV power |
| EF-5 | Pouch | 4.2V LCO/NMC pouch electrolyte, mild-high-temperature. | 3C digital |
| EF-6 | Pouch | 4.35V / 4.4V high-voltage pouch, fast-charge. | 3C digital, black pouch cells |
| EF-7 | Pouch | High-current discharge, thermal stable pouch. | E-cigarette batteries |
| EF-8 | Pouch | High-rate NMC/LCO stacked pouch. | Power tools, RC aircraft |
| EF-9 | Pouch | LFP-matched pouch, cycle and thermal performance. | Energy storage |
| EF-10 | Pouch | NMC ternary cathode pouch, cycle stability. | EV power |
| EF-11 | Prismatic | LFP prismatic. >1000 cycles @ 1C/60°C; <5% swelling @ 85°C/48h. | 3C digital, ESS |
| EF-12 | Prismatic | LFP prismatic, capacity retention, high-power. | EV power |
| EF-13 | Coin Cell | High-current charge/discharge, zero gas swelling. | Bluetooth digital |
EF-series production battery electrolyte is delivered from litres to tonnes, with full applications-engineering support for custom formulation requests. LFP (lithium iron phosphate) battery manufacturers should look at EF-2, EF-9, EF-11, or EF-12 depending on cell geometry. NMC (nickel-manganese-cobalt) battery manufacturers should evaluate EF-4 or EF-10. High-voltage 3C applications pair best with EF-6.
04 / Pricing & ShippingCompetitive Battery Electrolyte Pricing & Global Supply
Battery electrolyte pricing is one of the most opaque areas of the battery materials market. Research-chemical channels like Sigma-Aldrich, TCI, and Alfa Aesar often mark up battery-grade electrolyte products by 2–3x over manufacturer pricing because they operate as redistributors rather than producers. As a direct battery electrolyte manufacturer, Xnergy Materials offers transparent pricing that is typically 20–40% below redistributor channels for comparable battery-grade products.
Representative battery electrolyte pricing
Current online catalog pricing for our most-ordered lithium-ion battery electrolyte products:

Global battery electrolyte shipping
Battery-grade electrolyte is classified as hazardous material (UN 3316 / UN 3082 / UN 3316 depending on composition) under international transport regulations. Xnergy Materials handles all UN-certified packaging, hazmat documentation, and carrier compliance internally. We ship battery electrolyte worldwide:
For bulk tonne-scale battery electrolyte shipments, we coordinate dedicated sea freight with ISO tank containers and climate-controlled drummed options. Lead times for custom EF-series production orders are typically 2–4 weeks from order confirmation.
Because Xnergy Materials manufactures battery electrolyte at tonne scale, the marginal cost of producing a 500g research sample leverages the same raw-material economics as a 40-tonne production lot. This is why our per-gram pricing is competitive even at lab quantities — most research-chemical suppliers operating at small scale cannot match it.
05 / Selection GuideHow to Choose the Right Battery Electrolyte for Your Application
Choosing a battery electrolyte depends on three decisions: battery chemistry, cell form factor, and performance target. Below is a practical decision guide mapping common research and production scenarios to our product recommendations.
For lithium-ion battery electrolyte research
If you are running a standard research program on lithium-ion cells with LCO, NMC, or NCA cathodes and graphite or silicon anodes, start with pre-mixed 1M LiPF6 in EC/DMC/DEC as your baseline lithium-ion battery electrolyte. For silicon-anode research, switch to 1M LiPF6 + 5% FEC — the 5% fluoroethylene carbonate additive is essential for stable SEI formation on silicon.
For sodium-ion battery electrolyte research
Sodium-ion electrolyte research requires different salt and solvent choices than lithium. The standard sodium-ion baseline is 1M NaPF6 in EC/DMC. For custom sodium-ion electrolyte formulation, start with individual NaPF6, NaFSI, or NaTFSI salts.
For LFP (lithium iron phosphate) battery electrolyte
LFP battery manufacturers should select EF-series production electrolyte by cell form factor: EF-2 for cylindrical LFP cells (18650, 21700, 4680 formats), EF-9 for LFP pouch cells, and EF-11 or EF-12 for prismatic LFP cells. EF-11's combined specification of >1000 cycles at 1C/60°C with <5% swelling after 85°C/48h storage is particularly strong for energy storage applications.
For NMC (nickel-manganese-cobalt) battery electrolyte
NMC cathode manufacturers should look at EF-10 for pouch NMC cells, EF-4 for cylindrical high-power NMC used in automotive applications, and EF-6 for high-voltage (4.35V / 4.4V) 3C consumer applications.
For high-rate and power-tool battery electrolyte
High-rate applications that require 5C+ discharge capability — power tools, start-stop systems, RC vehicles, drone batteries — should use EF-3 (cylindrical, 15C rated) or EF-8 (stacked pouch). Both are optimized for high-current discharge with strong thermal stability.
For solid-state battery research
If your research is moving from liquid lithium battery electrolyte toward solid-state, Xnergy Materials also supplies a full range of LPSCl argyrodite sulfide solid electrolytes — nine SKUs across three compositional families. See our technical primer on LPSCl for background on solid-state electrolyte selection.
