In June 2019, Alteo joined forces with the China-based group Ginet to create the joint venture Alteo-Ginet (Suzhou) Lithium Battery Material Technology. In this joint venture, Alteo provides its expertise in superfine alumina, which is already used in surface coatings for lithium-ion battery separators and electrodes. In turn, Ginet provides the industrial capacity needed to grind alumina powder made by Alteo’s plant in Gardanne (France).
In April 2018, Arkema SA established a new Kynar fluoropolymer production facility at its Calvert-City plant in Kentucky, US. This expansion enabled a 20% increase in its US production capacity, helping Arkema support the strong demand of its customers in the North American region.
In April 2018, Nano One Materials Corp. developed a novel coating technique that stabilizes cathodes for use in advanced lithium-ion batteries. The company has applied for patent protection related to this coating technique.
In January 2019, the Volkswagen Group (Germany) agreed to invest USD 10 million in Forge Nano Inc. with a view to reinforcing its specialist knowledge in the field of battery research. Forge Nano is involved in the investigation of a material coating technology that could further improve the performance of battery materials. As a partner of Forge Nano, Volkswagen will also provide support for industrial trials of this technology. The transaction is still subject to approval by the authorities.
