Company Profile
Incorporated in 1993 and headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, Albemarle is a leading global developer, manufacturer, and marketer of highly engineered specialty chemicals, such as Lithium, Bromine, and Catalysts.
Their Lithium segment develops lithium-based materials including lithium carbonate, lithium hydroxide, lithium chloride, butyllithium, and lithium aluminum hydride. Lithium is an essential component in consumer electronics, electric vehicles, high performance greases, car tires, rubber soles, and plastic bottles. They provide technical services, including the handling and use of reactive lithium products, recycling services for lithium containing by products and lithium metal and other reagents.
Their Bromine segment includes products used in fire safety and other specialty chemical applications. Their fire safety technology enables the use of plastics in high heat applications by enhancing the flame resistant properties. The products that benefit from this technology include plastic enclosures for consumer electronics, printed circuit boards, wire and cable products, electrical connectors, textiles, and foam insulation. This segment includes specialty chemicals such as elemental bromine, alkyl bromides, inorganic bromides, brominated powdered activated carbon, and other bromine chemicals. These specialty bromine chemicals are used in chemical synthesis, oil and gas well drilling, mercury control, water purification, beef and poultry processing and other applications.
Their Catalysts segment is comprised of three main product lines. Clean fuel technologies, fluidized catalytic cracking, and performance catalyst solutions. Clean fuels technology is primarily composed of hydroprocessing catalysts and isomerization and akylation catalysts. Fluidized catalyst systems assist in high yield cracking of refinery petroleum streams into derivative higher-value products like transportation fuels and propylene. Performance catalyst solutions are used in the manufacture of alpha-olefins, polyolefins, and electronics.
