Mr. Wang Xiaoxing, General Manager of Wanhua Chemical Battery Technology Co., Ltd., and Mr. Nemanja Mikać, Founder and CEO of ElevenEs, attended the signing ceremony. This collaboration aims to establish a comprehensive supply and technical partnership covering products such as LFP cathode materials, PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) binders, NMP (N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone) solvents, etc., to promote the sustainable development of both parties in the new energy industry.


Wanhua Chemical, with its industrial chain advantages and decades of experience in process development and engineering research, has established a battery material integrating battery material technology development, equipment process technology development, and battery cell application technology research. The company has also established a complete technical platform for cathode and anode materials, binders, and solvents.

Under the agreement, the parties express their intention to cooperate on LFP and other high-quality raw materials. At the same time, both parties will jointly form a technical team, exchange technical and market information, and accelerate the development of their products and markets.
