Arkema, a global leader in specialty materials, will present its comprehensive portfolio of advanced solutions and innovations for electric vehicle (EV) and energy storage system (ESS) batteries at The Battery Show Europe 2026 in Stuttgart, Germany. At the event, the company will demonstrate how its innovations are enabling improved performance, enhanced safety, and greater sustainability in next-generation battery technologies.
Complementing these PVDF innovations, recently introduced the Incellion family, which further strengthens Arkema’s leadership with solutions such as Incellio Pr binder range for primer coatings and Incellion El PAA and SA range for Silicon-based anodes, enhancing adhesion, conductivity, durability, and processability for next-generation LFP cells.
Best-in-class battery separator coating, proven expertise and new advanced materials
Arkema also brings decades of separator coating expertise with its well-known Kynar Flex PVDF portfolio, bringing mechanical integrity, electrolyte wettability, and outstanding thermal dimensional stability. Kynar Flex LBG 2600 represents the latest evolution in this proven family, offering improved manufacturing efficiency allowing for lower temperature assembly.
Building on this foundation, Arkema also introduced Incellion Sp 1252, an acrylic binder designed specifically for ceramic-coated separators and Incellion Sp 450, a co-binder for PVDF for adhesive layer. It provides exceptional mechanical strength, strong adhesion to polyolefin films, and excellent electrolyte wettability, enabling separator designs that combine high safety margins with efficient ion transport.
Next-generation solutions: enabling semi-solid and solid-state batteries and advanced dry-process technologies
Arkema is also accelerating material innovation for the next wave of battery technologies, including all-solid-state and semi-solid batteries as well as advanced dry-electrode processes. For semi-solid and solid-state architectures, Arkema is developing new generations of binder materials tailored for solid electrolytes, interface stabilization, and high-voltage cathode compatibility – key enablers for safer, higher-energy battery designs.
In parallel, Arkema’s breakthroughs in dry-process-capable PVDF binders support cell manufacturers seeking to reduce energy consumption, eliminate solvent recovery steps, and lower production costs. Arkema has opened a state-of the art dry coating laboratory in France, reflecting Group’s commitment to pioneering sustainable & advanced solutions for next generation battery technologies.
