Redefining battery performance

Umicore’s silicon anode materials are redefining battery performance. By replacing traditional graphite anodes, silicon enables higher energy density, faster charging, and longer battery lifecycles, all while contributing to a more sustainable circular battery value chain.

With a proven silicon carbon composite strategy, Umicore has entered into a strategic partnership agreement with Korea's HS Hyosung Advanced Materials to advance and fund the industrialization, commercialization and further development of its silicon-carbon composite anode materials for electric vehicle (EV) lithium-ion batteries.

As we continue to push the boundaries of battery technology, our silicon anodes will play a key role in powering the future of electric mobility.
