H&V develops battery separator solutions across the industry's
broadest range of chemistries. We choose the precise material and
technique to formulate the right separator for your unique battery
requirements.

A new high-strength VRLA separator, EnergyGuard is a combination
material that blends the best properties of microglass and the added
strength of synthetic fiber. The separator has significantly higher
puncture resistance that leads to a lower incidence of shorting
in batteries produced with all grid types.

Offered only by H&V, the BGO 065 Series is a new separator
material that increases the compression on battery plates - boosting
battery life and performance uniformity. This innovative product
features a smoother top surface for more uniform plate contact,
higher malleability for less cracking around thick plates, better
weight control, and a more uniform pore structure.

Applied to uninterruptible power systems, emergency lighting,
telecommunications and other applications, the Hovosorb®
sealed lead acid microglass separator exhibits tight control over
basis weight and thickness as well as a high degree of purity and
low leachates.
H&V produces fibrous separators for lithium thionyl chloride,
zinc air cells, and other specialty batteries. We are actively developing
separators for emerging advanced battery systems and electrochemical
applications.
This absorptive separator material for sealed lead acid batteries
allows you to "fill and spill" with immediate recombination.
Hovosorb II's highly engineered patented process generates natural
electrolyte voids. Using this remarkable material and the fill and
spill method, you should always have consistent, reliable battery
performance. Hovosorb II simplifies your design and production process,
totally eliminating the need for precision filling equipment.

H&V manufactures nonwoven, meltblown, and composite battery
separators for cylindrical and prismatic cells, specifically suited
for Portable Power and Motive Power applications. Polyolefin fibrous
separators are treated with permanent surface treatment for proven
hydrophilic properties in demanding high temperature applications.
Fine fiber technology and uniform web forming techniques assure
reliable performance. Battery separators are manufactured to thickness
and basis weight and porosity specifications per your requirements.
Multi-layered nonwovens in nylon, polyolefin, or blends are produced
using the latest fine fiber technology. Thickness and basis weight
and pore structure are tailored to your specific needs. High temperature
polymers are available for demanding high temperature or long life
applications.
H&V offers a wide range of separators for AAAA - F size Alkaline
MnO2 batteries. These separators incorporate blends of the finest
available mini fibers, including PVA, Rayon, Vinyon, and Cellulosics.
Precise control is maintained over basis weight, thickness, pore
structure, purity, and absorbency characteristics. New "tight
pore" structure separators are available for low mercury applications.
H&V also offers Cellophane laminated separators for rechargeable
and primary applications.
H&V continues to stay abreast of technology shifts in the power
source field. Recognizing that many new technologies are years from
commercial reality, H&V maintains its dedication to tomorrow's
needs. Substantial resources are expended in our work with electrochemical
device designers in commercial, military, and academic endeavors.
Recent projects include developments for EC Capacitors, Fuel Cells,
Electrode Substrates, and Lithium Batteries. And H&V's capabilities
extend beyond separators. Our diverse manufacturing resources allow
us to produce substrates from carbons, organic, and inorganic particulate.
Our coating and lamination technology, surface treatment, and fiber
technology combine to give us the ability to work on the "Active"
side of the electrochemical spectrum as well as the more passive,
yet critical, separator side. H&V has extensively equipped R&D
laboratories and pilot manufacturing facilities that provide a solid
base for theoretical research work. We will work on a contract basis
or in joint partnership with commercial developers or will perform
work under research grants with academic or government institutions.
