Battery Chemicals

Shepherd's high purity Cobalt Oxide is used as a precursor to making Lithium Cobalt Oxide, which is widely used as a cathode material in the production of Lithium ion rechargeable batteries.

Our high purity Cobalt Hydroxide is also used in Lithium ion batteries, and manufacturers of Nickel based rechargeable batteries also find it useful as a conductive additive.

Cobalt Nitrate and Nickel Nitrate are also used by rechargeable battery manufactures.

We also manufacture Manganese chemicals such as Manganese Carbonate, Manganese Hydroxide and Manganese Dioxide for the battery industry.

Shepherd also makes Mixed Metal Hydroxides and Mixed Metal Oxides that are used in the manufacturing of Lithium ion rechargeable batteries.

With our well tested batch process technology, we are able to produce these products with the required specifications on particle size, surface area and purity.
