Amel Energy

PFAS-Free Alternative for Sustainable Battery Production

Amel Energy is eliminating toxic NMP solvent and PFAS-based PVDF binders from lithium ion battery manufacturing. We have built a bio-based PFAS free, drop in solvent and binder platform that lowers cost, energy use, and regulatory risk without requiring new equipment. The result is a more scalable and recyclable battery production process.
