1,4-Di-t-butyl-2,5-bis(2-methoxyethoxy)benzene, 99+% Redox shuttle ANL-RS2 Usage And Synthesis

Uses

1. Provides a long term intrinsic overcharge protection of lithium-ion batteries.
2. Maintains the safe operation of lithium-ion batteries.
3. Highly-soluble in conventional non-aqueous, carbonate based electrolytes.
4. Increases battery long-term stability and oxidation potential.

Uses

In lithium ion batteries (LIBs) the redox shuttles are employed to prevent overcharging which could lead to thermal runaway and catastrophic failure. The use of redox shuttles increases the safety and stability of LIBs. 1,4-Di-tert-butyl-2,5-bis (2-methoxyethoxy)benzene is an important redox shuttle used for overcharge protection in batteries.
