From August 6 to 7, the 2024 Gaogong New Energy & New Materials Industry Conference, hosted by Gaogong Lithium Battery, Gaogong Energy Storage, Gaogong Sodium Battery, and Gaogong Industry Research Institute (GGII), was held in Qionglai, Chengdu. Concurrently, the award ceremony for the 2024 Battery New Material Innovation Enterprises took place during the conference, where Rolechem won this Lithium Battery Material Innovation Award by virtue of its patented technologies related to Lithium Bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI).

The Gaogong Lithium Battery New Material Award is an industry selection activity initiated and organized by Gaogong Lithium Battery, recommended jointly by the industry. It aims to select new material enterprises with "novel" and "high-quality" potential in the industry, providing critical momentum for the continuous growth of the new energy sector. This conference focused on the innovative development and industrialization process of new batteries and materials, as the exploration and application of new materials will become an important force driving the progress of the battery industry. Rolechem has been deeply dedicated to the fields of new materials and new energy, implementing multiple forward-looking technical layouts in both lithium and sodium battery directions. Rolechem's receipt of the Gaogong Lithium Battery New Material Award, driven by the outstanding performance of its LiFSI products, is a solid recognition of its R&D innovation capabilities, comprehensive market performance, and industrial operation strength.

As a novel lithium salt, LiFSI drastically reduces the generation of hydrogen fluoride ($HF$). While ensuring battery safety, it significantly improves the high- and low-temperature performance as well as the cycling stability of lithium-ion batteries, yielding excellent effects on the enhancement of overall battery performance. Rolechem's independently developed LiFSI process technology effectively overcomes existing industrialization defects. It provides an efficient, green, and energy-saving catalytic and fluorination reaction process technology, yielding highly pure LiFSI products with outstanding performance, which have gained widespread market recognition.

With the acceleration of the new cycle of full-scenario electrification, batteries are moving toward higher safety, higher performance, and better cost-effectiveness. The industrialization speed of solid-state batteries, sodium-ion batteries, ultra-fast charging batteries, and large cylindrical batteries is accelerating, gradually building a sustainable growth space for the new materials industry. Rolechem always adheres to an innovation-driven development strategy, continuously increases its R&D investment, and actively lays out additive products across different technical routes. At present, it has established a comprehensive product matrix of additives for both lithium and sodium battery systems, covering diversified market demands.

In the future, Rolechem will continue to pay close attention to industry dynamics and continuously promote the progress of the battery industry in multiple application scenarios, such as power and energy storage, through "new" and "high-quality" productive forces.
