Your challenge: purity, consistency, stability 

Battery production demands purity, consistency and stability. Inconsistent binder chemistry can lead to slurry instability, coating defects, and yield loss. With evolving purity standards, supply chain pressure, and sustainability targets, battery manufacturers need more than just materials — they need a partner.

Our solution: AkuPure™ NC CMC

Ultra-high purity carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) for lithium-ion batteries

Our AkuPure™ NC CMC is engineered for current and next-generation battery applications, including electric vehicles, energy storage, and consumer electronics. It delivers:

  • Unmatched Purity – Ultra-low insoluble content reduces coating defects and improves consistency
  • Multifunctional Performance – Acts as binder, dispersant, and rheology modifier in one
  • Reliable Global Supply – Manufactured in Finland with secure logistics to Asia, Europe, and the Americas
  • Proven Results – Trusted by major cell makers and validated in lab and full-scale production
