Additives for Li-ion: The Critical but Overlooked Materials Shaping the Battery Industry
Improvements to battery technology will be critical to the development of various industries, including vehicle electrification, stationary energy storage, and consumer electronics. With greater specialization needed for each application, Li-ion manufacturers are looking at every possible avenue to improve cell performance. Beyond just the major cell components, additive materials play a crucial role in optimizing battery performance and are a growing area of investment for manufacturers and end-users.
IDTechEx’s new report “Additives for Li-ion Batteries and PFAS-Free Batteries 2026-2036: Technologies, Players, Forecasts” dives deep into the battery additive landscape, paying specific attention to the binder, conductive additive, and electrolyte additive markets. These areas are set to be reshaped by the ever-expanding battery industry and will become increasingly important to material suppliers and battery manufacturers in the next decade. IDTechEx forecasts the combined Li-ion additive market to be worth over US$18 billion by 2036.
