FluoRok recently met partners from renowned deep-tech innovation centre CPI at their Sedgefield facility. Along with WMG, University of Warwick, FluoRok and CPI are collaborating on a feasibility study grant of £750k awarded by UK Research and Innovation via its Faraday Battery Challenge to accelerate FluoRok's disruptive chemical processes.    The project focuses on FluoRok’s ground-breaking technology for the HF-free manufacture of electrolyte salts (e.g. LiPF6). These fluorine-containing materials are key components in Li-ion batteries yet are almost entirely manufactured in Asia-Pacific via a hazardous and poorly sustainable process based on the highly toxic chemical hydrogen fluoride (HF). This project will enable FluoRok and CPI to scale-up HF-free technology towards the design of FluoRok's pilot plant, while WMG, University of Warwick’s electrolyte testing in Li-ion batteries will ensure the required quality standards for mass adoption. Big thanks 🙏 to CPI for their hospitality and looking forward to continued collaboration to accelerate the development and commercialisation of state-of-the-art battery technologies and support growth of the UK supply chain for the battery sector⚡️⚡️⚡️   📨 info@fluorok.com #fluorine #fluoRok #fluorination #fluorochemicalrevolution #sustainability #netzero #circulareconomy #FaradayBatteryChallenge #ukmanufacturing
