Innovationen ermöglichen, die Leben verbessern, die Produktivität steigern und globale Chancen schaffen

Circuit boards that are smaller, flexible, more versatile and powerful drive electronic innovation. Albemarle’s fire safety solutions are used in the adhesive layer of circuit boards, providing lifesaving properties while enabling industry growth. Our high-performance precision cleaning solvents are used for circuit board vapor degreasing, cold cleaning and ultrasonic cleaning, and are easy to recycle, compatible with metals and less likely to cause corrosion than many other solvents.

Essential to the electrical and electronics industry, wire and cable manufacturers need additives to reduce the fire hazard potential of densely packed, high-performing electronics. Albemarle’s innovative flame retardants can be compounded into the polymer matrix during the wire and cable extrusion process, which greatly enhances the fire resistance and overall fire safety of the final product.

Advanced semiconductor technology relies on Albemarle's specialty chemical products, which are crucial for achieving intricate designs, often at the atomic level. Our anhydrous hydrogen bromide is vital for precise and specialized etching procedures, while our butyl lithium serves as a key intermediate enabling powerful memory systems in compact sizes.

Proliferation of personal electronic devices like smartphones, tablets and watches has increased the need for screens that are strong, durable and thermal resistant in all shapes and sizes. Albemarle’s technical grade lithium carbonate solutions promote advanced glass manufacturing advantages for a wide array of electronic products.

Albemarle is at the forefront in advancing solid-state battery technology, producing the highest purity (99.9%) lithium sulfide. The potential is especially notable for wearable devices like hearing aids, blood pressure and glucose monitors, as well as wellness/fitness trackers.
