Inorganics - Batteries, Dielectrics, and Energy Storage

GFS Chemicals has been producing and selling bulk quantities of material to the battery markets for many years.  We are currently involved in scale-up processes involving novel or emerging battery materials for customers.

For this reason, GFS Chemicals can readily support any size inquiry in this market from experimental, gram size samples all the way up to metric ton quantities of material. 

Additionally, GFS is currently involved in R&D activities associated with hydrogen storage for fuel cell applications, and currently offers materials that are used for such purposes.

GFS has recently added personnel with expertise in High Valence as well as Low Valence metal systems to our portfolio. These materials are the key electrochemical basis of many of the current and experimental battery systems in existence today.
