Ethylene carbonate, 98%

About Ethylene carbonate, 98%

Ethylene carbonate is a battery material carrying the CAS registry number 96-49-1 with a typical assay of 98%. The compound has the formula C3H4O3, corresponding to a molecular weight of 88.06 g/mol. Systematically, it is named 1,3-dioxolan-2-one. Alternative names: Glycol carbonate and Ethylene glycol carbonate.

It is supplied as a solid or liquid. Key physical data: a melting point of 35-38 °C and a boiling point of 243-244 °C. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heat and ignition sources. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Warning”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

It is commonly used for lithium-ion battery research, electrode materials, energy storage and dyes and pigments manufacture. Buyers come mainly from academic and industrial research and batteries and energy storage.

Standard pack sizes are 100 g, 500 g and 250 kg, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
