Low CO conversion restricts production capacity; high methane/carbon dioxide by-product yield; rapid deactivation from carbon deposition during long-term operation; severe particle pulverization and abrasion; large batch-to-batch activity fluctuations leading to unstable working conditions
1. Insufficient purity of active iron carbide phases results in low single-pass CO conversion, incomplete synthesis gas reactions, repeated tail gas circulation, sharply increased equipment energy consumption and operating costs, and production line output failing to reach design standards.
2. Poor catalytic selectivity triggers frequent side reactions, generating high volumes of methane and carbon dioxide, lowering carbon resource utilization and target oil yield to damage economic benefits.
3. Irrational catalyst pore structure leads to rapid carbon deposition covering active sites during continuous operation, drastic activity attenuation within short cycles, and frequent shutdowns for regeneration or catalyst replacement, interrupting continuous production.
4. Low particle mechanical strength causes severe friction and impact pulverization under fluidized bed and fixed bed conditions; fine powders carried away by gas flow not only waste catalyst but also block pipelines and filters, increasing equipment maintenance pressure.
5. Deviations in active component and additive ratios across batches lead to fluctuating conversion rates and product distribution under fixed process parameters, requiring repeated working condition adjustments by operators and unstable mass production.
1. Optimize crystal phase synthesis processes to increase the proportion of effective active phases, ensuring high single-pass CO conversion, reducing tail gas circulation frequency, unlocking production line capacity and cutting overall energy consumption.
2. Precisely regulate additive systems and pore structures to suppress side reactions, lower methane and carbon dioxide output ratios, and improve long-chain oil selectivity and carbon utilization efficiency.
3. Adopt hierarchical pore design matched with anti-carbon-deposition modification technology to slow carbon accumulation, extend single-cycle catalyst operation duration and reduce shutdown regeneration frequency.
4. Strengthen forming processes to boost particle mechanical strength and wear resistance, drastically lowering pulverization rates and reducing material loss and pipeline blockage issues.
5. Standardize raw material ratios and production workflows to lock all core indicators, delivering highly consistent activity and selectivity across batches for stable long-term production line operation.
Insufficient olefin selectivity; high heavy hydrocarbon by-product yield; narrow stable reaction temperature range prone to deactivation; activity passivation from sulfur impurities in raw materials; short catalyst service life after repeated cycles
1. Unregulated catalytic active sites lead to broad product distribution, low light olefin ratios, increased heavy alkane and wax by-products, complex downstream separation and purification processes, and elevated purification costs.
2. Narrow stable reaction temperature window causes sharp drops in olefin yield with minor furnace temperature fluctuations, increasing production control difficulty.
3. Trace sulfides and nitrides in raw materials occupy active sites, causing chronic catalyst poisoning, gradual activity decline and sustained deterioration of product quality.
4. Active component loss and structural damage during cyclic reuse shorten service life, requiring frequent catalyst replenishment and raising production costs.
5. Uneven particle size distribution disrupts bed gas flow distribution, triggering local overheating that further exacerbates side reactions and fails to meet olefin purity standards.
1. Directionally modify active sites to enhance light olefin selectivity and control heavy by-product generation, simplifying downstream separation workflows and reducing purification costs.
2. Widen the stable reaction temperature window to maintain stable catalytic performance under minor temperature fluctuations and lower on-site process control difficulty.
3. Introduce anti-poisoning additives to improve sulfur and nitrogen resistance, adapt to industrial synthesis gas with impurities and slow activity passivation.
4. Strengthen bonding strength between active components and carriers to boost cyclic reuse performance, extend service life and reduce catalyst replenishment frequency.
5. Strictly screen particle sizes to ensure uniform particle distribution, balanced bed gas and temperature distribution, avoid local overheating and stabilize olefin product purity.
Low conversion efficiency from complex tail gas compositions; structural collapse under water vapor environments; poor adaptability to pressure fluctuations; pore blockage from impurity dust; high overall operating energy consumption
1. Complex tail gas compositions and fluctuating effective gas concentrations result in poor compatibility of conventional catalysts, volatile conversion efficiency and insufficient waste gas resource utilization rates.
2. Intrinsic water vapor in tail gas decomposes catalyst crystal structures under high-temperature water vapor atmospheres, accelerating performance attenuation during long-term operation.
3. Frequent fluctuations in unit load and system pressure fail to match catalytic systems quickly, unbalancing conversion rates and product indicators and raising non-compliant product rates.
4. Solid dust carried by tail gas adheres to and blocks catalyst pores, shortening continuous operation cycles and increasing pipeline cleaning workloads.
5. High activation energy for catalytic reactions requires sustained high temperature and pressure working conditions, keeping equipment energy consumption high and creating heavy operational cost pressure for projects.
1. Optimize formula systems to adapt to multi-component tail gas with fluctuating concentrations, ensuring stable conversion efficiency under varying intake conditions and improving resource recovery rates.
2. Enhance hydrothermal stability to prevent crystal structure decomposition and active component loss under high water vapor conditions, matching coal chemical waste gas treatment scenarios.
3. Develop wide-load and wide-pressure compatible systems to maintain stable catalytic performance under fluctuating unit loads and pressures, ensuring compliant product indicators.
4. Optimize surface structure and pore sizes to boost anti-dust blockage capacity, extend continuous operation duration and reduce equipment cleaning maintenance workloads.
5. Lower reaction activation energy to achieve efficient conversion under relatively mild working conditions, effectively cutting equipment energy consumption and controlling operating costs.
Poor compatibility with formulated additives leading to stratification; caking and deterioration under high-temperature storage & transportation; fluctuating effective component contents disrupting formulas; activity erosion from acid/alkali additives; short shelf life of finished formulated products
1. Mismatched surface properties and pH values cause uneven mixing, stratification, sedimentation and agglomeration when compounded with co-catalysts, structural additives and binders, preventing uniform composite system preparation.
2. Particle adhesion and caking occur under high-temperature ocean shipping environments, altering physical morphology, worsening bed air permeability after feeding and triggering abnormal reactions.
3. Deviations in effective iron content and additive ratios across batches lead to inconsistent finished product performance under fixed formulation recipes and higher defective rates.
4. Contact with acidic and alkaline formulated components erodes active phases, rapidly eliminating catalytic activity and rendering formulated products completely ineffective.
5. Insufficient stability of formulated finished products leads to gradual performance attenuation under normal-temperature storage, short shelf life and inability to meet long-cycle overseas distribution demands.
1. Adjust catalyst surface polarity and pH values for excellent compatibility with all formulated additives and binders, delivering uniform and stable mixed systems without stratification or sedimentation.
2. Implement anti-caking surface treatment to tolerate high-temperature ocean shipping environments, maintaining loose particles with no adhesion and consistent physical morphology.
3. Standardize full-process control of component contents for highly consistent batch indicators, enabling direct mass production with customers’ existing formulation recipes without repeated adjustments.
4. Improve chemical stability to resist acid and alkali erosion, preserving catalytic activity when matched with various functional additives.
5. Add long-term stabilizing components to extend the shelf life of formulated finished products, maintaining stable performance under normal-temperature storage to adapt to overseas warehousing and multi-regional distribution.
Counterfeit low-cost products with falsely labeled indicators; sedimentation and stratification of bulk materials; moisture absorption and deterioration under humid ocean shipping environments; incomplete compliance documents blocking customs clearance; lack of complete test reports hindering customer acceptance
1. Low-quality raw materials mixed with inert fillers and low-activity powders carry falsely labeled core parameters including conversion rate and selectivity. After downstream commissioning, production capacity and product quality fail to meet standards, triggering after-sales compensation claims.
2. Long-term static storage of bulk materials causes sedimentation and stratification of components with different densities; simple stirring fails to achieve uniform mixing, resulting in significant performance gaps between small repackaged batches and damaging channel credibility.
3. Insufficient packaging tightness leads to catalyst moisture absorption and pulverization under high-temperature and high-humidity ocean shipping conditions, damaging crystal structures and drastically reducing performance upon arrival.
4. FEC is classified as an industrial hazardous and controlled chemical raw material. Missing English SDS, REACH compliance certificates and transportation appraisal reports carry high risks of customs detention in Europe and America, preventing normal customs clearance and sales.
5. Some suppliers cannot provide third-party performance test certificates and component analysis reports, preventing overseas industrial customers from completing incoming quality inspections and supplier audits and hindering long-term cooperation establishment.
1. Supply genuine original factory products with no adulteration or false labeling; all performance parameters match measured values, with authoritative test reports provided per batch and support for third-party re-inspection.
2. Adopt homogenization treatment processes to eliminate sedimentation and stratification of bulk materials, paired with standardized stirring and repackaging workflows for consistent performance across bulk and small packages.
3. Supply moisture-proof sealed packaging adapted to high-temperature and high-humidity ocean shipping conditions, preventing catalyst moisture absorption and pulverization with consistent arrival status matching factory output.
4. Provide complete English compliance documents including safety data sheets, regulatory screening and transportation qualification reports with each shipment to guarantee customs clearance and local compliant sales.
5. Deliver full batch traceability documents, component and performance test certificates to meet overseas customer incoming inspection and system audit requirements for smooth cooperation workflows.
If you require more professional and in-depth analysis on FEC selection, please contact HiSiaddi customer service.
The South Korean client only provided lab-scale test parameters without industrial mass production process data. Many domestic chemical factories declined sample production due to stringent customized indicators and low profit margins for small-lot orders.
South Korea’s KC certification requirements for chemical products and SDS compliance documentation standards conflicted with China’s national labeling specifications, making test submission documents incompatible with South Korean customs clearance protocols.
Classified as Category III dangerous goods, the catalyst faced discrepancies in UN number classification and packaging standards for dangerous goods logistics between China and South Korea, rendering conventional sea freight non-compliant for export.
Collaborative Custom R&D: HiSiaddi coordinated with its partner catalyst factory’s R&D laboratory to convert the client’s microscale lab parameters into industrial production processes. Three rounds of lab trials were conducted to adjust carrier calcination temperatures and impregnation durations for active metals. Three sample batches were submitted for testing within 22 days. The third batch achieved a measured FEC conversion rate of 92.7%, with all by-product indicators meeting the client’s specified thresholds.
Specialized Compliance Documentation Rectification: HiSiaddi’s compliance department liaised with South Korean chemical certification bodies to recompile Korean-language SDS safety data sheets, conduct separate KC registration filings for each catalyst component, revise domestic dangerous goods classification labeling, and complete component traceability reports required for South Korean import customs clearance.
Customized Special Logistics Solution: Partnering with China-South Korea dangerous goods freight forwarders, the team reconfirmed UN3265 as the official dangerous goods classification. Vacuum aluminum foil packaging filled with inert shielding gas was adopted for the 50 kg trial batch, which was shipped via dedicated China-South Korea dangerous goods air freight lines to avoid port detention risks associated with sea transport.
After blending the produced FEC into its electrolyte formulation, lithium-ion cells suffered severe capacity fading under high-temperature cycling. Capacity retention dropped by over 28% after 50 cycles at 80°C. Root cause analysis identified excessive impurities in FEC feedstock stemming from poor control of side reactions triggered by the catalyst.
The client’s in-house synthesis reactor temperature control range was poorly matched with the domestically supplied catalyst. Local overheating occurred inside the reactor during feeding, resulting in a sustained FEC distillation yield below 75%, far short of the client’s designed target of 85%. The client threatened to file a return claim and suspended a planned annual framework order of 30 tons.
Formulation Troubleshooting & Optimization: HiSiaddi dispatched chemical process engineers to the client’s factory in Thailand. Third-party testing of sampled material confirmed free fluoride ion residues in the catalyst exceeded the acceptable threshold by 120 ppm, the core factor driving FEC impurity levels and cell degradation. To mitigate cell capacity fading temporarily, the team assisted the client in fine-tuning its electrolyte base EC/DEC ratio: reducing the FEC dosage from 3.5% to 2.8% and incorporating a small amount of VC co-additive. Simultaneously, HiSiaddi coordinated its domestic catalyst manufacturing partner to adjust post-treatment water washing and calcination processes, capping free fluoride residues at under 30 ppm.
Production Process Adaptation & Rectification: To resolve the mismatch between reactor temperature profiles and catalyst performance, the team recalculated the catalyst’s optimal reaction temperature window. The client was instructed to replace the original constant 85°C heating regime with a staged temperature control protocol: low-temperature pre-activation at 62°C followed by a main reaction stage at 78°C. The feeding rate was reduced from 250 kg/h to 160 kg/h to eliminate localized overheating and subsequent side reactions.
Long-Term Supporting Package: HiSiaddi provided a complimentary replacement shipment of 3 tons of reformulated catalyst for production line trial runs, alongside a full-process FEC synthesis technical manual and standardized catalyst storage control guidelines.

Lead time (days) | 7 | 15 | To be negotiated |
The monthly inventory volume of FEC is 20 tons, with appropriate adjustments upwards or downwards in response to peak and off-peak seasons.
HiSiaddi safeguards the supply stability of FEC through the following measures:
(1) Performance evaluation and screening of FEC brand factories based on on-time delivery rate, batch pass rate, timeliness of risk alerts, and completeness of documentation to assess their supply stability.
(2) For each mainstream model or major grade of FEC, secure 1 primary high-quality brand manufacturer and 2 backup high-quality manufacturers.
(3) Each factory operates independent production lines in separate production zones to prevent production halts caused by major unforeseen incidents such as environmental production suspensions and power outages.
Through long-term cooperation with brand manufacturers via technology commercialization and authorized distribution channels, HiSiaddi can effectively strengthen supervision over the production processes of brand manufacturers, optimize full-process traceability management, improve batch stability control, and further reinforce real-time monitoring of the supply stability of FEC products.
Long-term Annual Framework Supply Guarantee Agreement. HiSiaddi signs 12-month long-term agreements with leading manufacturers. The agreements specify the minimum guaranteed supply volume, maximum price hike range, and priority production scheduling rights during peak seasons. It is stipulated that manufacturers shall issue a 30-day prior written notice if production is suspended due to environmental rectification or equipment maintenance, and backup manufacturers will be activated to replenish goods accordingly.
We have 4 warehouses, which are jointly operated and managed with suppliers to store hot-selling products.The four warehouses are located at Qingdao Port in North China, Ningbo Port in East China, Shenzhen Port in South China, and Zhengzhou, China’s inland logistics hub. This setup guarantees sufficient supply and timely shipment of FEC during peak seasons.
HiSiaddi issues a rolling demand forecast covering the subsequent three months on the 25th of each month, allowing manufacturers to reserve production capacity in accordance with the forecast. Any new urgent orders from overseas clients will be prioritized to draw on inventories or production capacity from backup manufacturers.
Unstable logistics for FEC will extend delivery lead times. HiSiaddi has established alternative arrangements covering multiple freight forwarders, ports and transportation solutions:
(1) Binding of multiple professional chemical freight forwarders for FEC
Each product is assigned 2 to 3 freight forwarders with hazardous chemical/food transport qualifications affiliated with different shipping lines. Alternative sailing schedules can be switched to immediately in case of space shortages or customs inspections on a single shipping route.
(2) Backup transportation solutions for FEC
Ocean freight serves as the standard mode; air freight and rail freight are reserved as alternatives for urgent orders. Long-term agreements for temperature-controlled containers are signed for temperature-sensitive and perishable food additives to secure shipping space.
(3) Visual tracking and digital early warning for FEC
Freight forwarders synchronize daily updates on container loading, customs declaration, vessel loading and port arrival milestones. If customs inspection occurs, replenishment from backup inventory will be initiated immediately to shorten client waiting periods.
Full-chain digital early warning automatically monitors four categories of risks:
Factory side: Expiring supplier environmental assessment certificates, renewal of production permits, scheduled major equipment overhauls, and notifications of price hikes for upstream raw materials;
Inventory side: Inventory falling below safety thresholds, excessive inventory age, and batches failing quality inspection;
Logistics side: Shipping line space shortages, strikes at destination ports, and updates to customs policies;

FEC is a fluorine-containing fine electronic chemical and special electrolyte additive for lithium batteries. It has a low flash point and certain corrosivity, classified as hazardous flammable liquids in most regions worldwide. It is subject to regulations covering electronic chemicals, fluorinated substances, hazardous goods, REACH, and lithium battery industry access rules. The core performance of the product is determined by main content purity, water content, acidity, chloride ions, fluoride ions, alcohol residues, color, refractive index, electrochemical stability, and metallic ion impurities. Trace impurities will directly damage the SEI film structure, resulting in rapid battery capacity fade, poor low-temperature performance, aggravated self-discharge, cell swelling and gas generation. In addition, standards for hazardous goods transportation, electronic material access, and fluorinated substance control vary across countries. Procurement cannot rely solely on unit price comparison; comprehensive evaluation must be conducted in combination with electrolyte formulas, battery application scenarios, production processes, and local regulations.
Featuring triple attributes of hazardous flammable liquid, fluorine-containing fine chemical, and lithium battery electronic raw material, FEC is regulated by hazardous goods classification registration, REACH & SVHC control, fluorinated substance restrictions, electronic chemical hazardous substance management, and lithium battery material industry standards. Complete compliance documents serve as the foundation for cross-border circulation, industry admission, and risk avoidance.
1.
Specialized Testing and Certifications Matched with End Applications For general-grade FEC used in consumer digital batteries and small energy storage batteries exported to mainstream markets including the EU, North America and Japan & South Korea, REACH registration, full SVHC screening reports, as well as conventional anion, cation, residual solvent and color testing data shall be provided. Power-grade FEC dedicated to new energy power and vehicle lithium batteries requires supplementary automotive electronic material admission tests, low metallic ion analysis, and halogen control reports to meet stringent automotive electronic standards. Ultra-high-purity grade for long-cycle energy storage batteries and high-end cylindrical/pouch cells shall provide full-element trace impurity analysis and long-term electrochemical cycle test reports. Some countries impose special controls on fluorinated chemicals, requiring advance local filing of fluorinated substances.
2.
3.
Complete Documents for Cross-Border Transportation and Customs Clearance With a low flash point, FEC is uniformly categorized as a hazardous flammable liquid in most countries globally. Suppliers shall uniformly provide multi-language SDS safety data sheets, chemical hazard classification appraisal reports, corresponding UN numbers, hazardous goods packaging certificates, and maritime hazardous goods declaration documents. Conventional customs clearance documents include certificates of origin, batch-by-batch full-item COA quality inspection reports, and production traceability documents. For power battery and high-end energy storage grade orders, additional gas chromatography (GC), ion chromatography (IC), electrochemical performance evaluation reports, and actual battery cycle test data shall be attached.
4.
5.
Supplier Qualification Screening Prioritize source manufacturers with complete production capacity covering fluorination synthesis, multi-stage rectification, deep dehydration and impurity removal, and electronic-grade fine purification, who specialize in lithium battery electronic chemical production and boast long-term overseas lithium battery customer service experience. Key verification items include hazardous goods production qualifications, dust-free electronic chemical production qualifications, and the authority and traceability of third-party test reports. Insufficient main purity, excessive water/acidity, or high ionic impurities will directly lead to electrolyte failure, drastically shortened battery cycle life, cell swelling and gas generation, and elevated safety risks. Non-compliant indicators may also result in customs detention and trade claims. Qualification audits, electrolyte formula compatibility small-scale tests, and third-party full-item re-inspection must be completed prior to cooperation.
6.
The main content, impurity levels, electrochemical performance, and storage stability of FEC are fundamentally determined by the grade of upstream raw materials, fluorination process control, multi-stage vacuum rectification, deep dehydration, ion removal and other key procedures — these are also the core criteria for grading FEC for different lithium battery applications.
1.
Upstream Raw Material Inspection High-quality products adopt ultra-high-purity ethylene carbonate (EC) and high-selectivity fluorinating reagents as raw materials for targeted fluorination reactions under closed and controllable working conditions, minimizing by-product generation. Subsequent multi-stage high-efficiency rectification, molecular sieve deep dehydration, ion exchange impurity removal, and precision membrane filtration maximize the removal of water, organic acids, various inorganic ions, residual alcohols and light component impurities. Finished products feature high main purity, extremely low impurities, wide electrochemical windows, stable film-forming performance, strong compatibility with all types of electrolyte systems, and resistance to discoloration and acidification during long-term storage. Low-end products adopt industrial-grade raw materials with simplified rectification and impurity removal processes, suffering from low purity, excessive water and acidity, high ionic impurities, yellowing after long-term storage, and rapid degradation of electrochemical performance. Such products are completely inapplicable for high-demand scenarios including power batteries and long-cycle energy storage batteries. For high-end grades, suppliers may be requested to provide raw material purity certificates.
2.
3.
Confirmation of Core Production Processes Mainstream process route: Pretreatment of high-purity EC raw materials → Targeted fluorination reaction in closed system → Neutralization of crude liquid to remove by-products → Multi-stage vacuum rectification for component cutting → Continuous deep dehydration via molecular sieves → Ion exchange to remove trace anions/cations → Filtration with high-precision filter elements → Filling under inert nitrogen protection → Light-proof sealed warehousing.
4.
· General digital battery grade: Standard fluorination + two-stage rectification process, balancing cost and basic film-forming performance, suitable for consumer batteries such as mobile phones, earphones and power banks.
· Special power battery grade: Three-stage rectification + deep ion removal with strict control of metallic and halogen ions, tailored for vehicle power lithium batteries.
· Ultra-high-purity energy storage battery grade: Full-process dust-free production, multi-stage deep purification + extreme dehydration and impurity removal with strict control of trace impurities, suitable for large-scale energy storage and long-service-life batteries. Formal production lines operate fully sealed to isolate water vapor and air. High-end lithium battery grades are equipped with independent dust-free workshops and dedicated pipelines to avoid cross-contamination; counterfeiting of high-purity lithium-grade products with low-grade materials is strictly prohibited.
1. Quality Control and Production Capacity Assessment FEC is manufactured via continuous fine chemical production. Conventional grades are in sufficient stock, while customized ultra-high-purity grades are produced to order. Request multi-batch COAs, GC purity analysis, ion chromatography tests, water titration, and electrochemical cycle test data, with close monitoring of fluctuation ranges for key indicators including FEC main content, water content, acidity, chloride ions, fluoride ions, alcohol residues, metallic ions, and color. For long-term cooperation, lock raw material standards, process parameters and testing methods to guarantee consistent electrolyte compatibility and battery cycle performance across batches. Prioritize manufacturers with independent fluorination synthesis and deep purification capacity; products purchased as crude liquid and simply rectified and repackaged are prone to excessive impurities and unstable performance. Stability data under high-low temperature and long-term sealed storage shall also be provided to adapt to ocean shipping and warehousing environments worldwide.
Commercial FEC is classified by purity grade, impurity control standards, and metallic ion limit values. Incorrect model selection will cause defective SEI films, sharp battery cycle capacity drop, sudden low-temperature capacity loss, gas generation and cell swelling. Precise matching with battery types and electrolyte formulas is mandatory.
1. Classification by Application Grade
· General digital battery grade: Meets basic requirements for small consumer batteries with conventional electronic chemical impurity standards.
· Special power battery grade: Strict control of halogens and metallic ions for vehicle power lithium batteries.
· Ultra-high-purity energy storage battery grade: Extreme control of all trace impurities for large-scale energy storage and long-life batteries. Grades cannot be substituted for one another.
