Koppers is Named As One of Newsweek's Most Responsible Companies for 2025
As the electric vehicle market continues to develop, Koppers provides an essential element to protect the life and performance of the lithium-ion batteries powering those vehicles.
CPRO™ is an outstanding coating pitch for spherical and natural graphite used in advanced battery anode materials. Produced using Koppers patented technology, CPRO™ is a zero ash, zero QI pitch with a high coking value which exhibits very low batch to batch variation.
Extensive testing has demonstrated CPRO™’s effectiveness in improving the properties and performance of spherical graphite.
Increases tap density. Decreases BET. Improves battery life.
CPRO™ is available in three different physical forms to suit the needs of Battery Anode Manufacturers.
CPRO™ CS. Pellets for use in dry and solvent coating. Available in a range of softening points.
CPRO™ CD. A water-based dispersion of pitch for VOC-free and dust-free coating. Available in a range of softening points.
CPRO™ CP. Pitch pre-dissolved in solvent for solvent coating. Available in a range of softening points.
Koppers is a proud member of the SAFELOOP consortium, working to develop and demonstrate technology to meet the 2030 EUCAR* Hazard Level 3 standards for LIBs in electric vehicles.
