Freudenberg Sealing Technologies offers material testing for lithium-ion battery electrolytes

Green Car Congress

The risks associated with testing lithium-ion battery materials exposed to electrolytic solutions are real, and the cost of controlling them is one of the reasons only a handful of universities are the only other organizations to conduct such testing. Full protective gear is required when handling the electrolytic solutions.
