Lithium Tin Phosphorus Sulfide (LSPS)
Sulfide-based Solid Electrolytes
Lithium Tin Phosphorus Sulfide (Li10SnP2S12), commonly referred to as LSPS, is a superionic solid-state electrolyte designed to replace conventional liquid organic electrolytes, which are flammable and toxic. Beyond significantly enhancing battery safety, solid-state electrolytes enable the direct use of lithium metal anodes—dramatically increasing cell voltage and overall volumetric and gravimetric energy densities.
NANOMYTE® SSE-10
Produced using NEI’s proprietary manufacturing process, NANOMYTE® SSE-10 eliminates flammability risks associated with liquid electrolytes while delivering exceptionally high room-temperature lithium-ion conductivity (10-3 – 10-2 S/cm). Because LSPS is moisture-sensitive, SSE-10 is synthesized, packaged, and stored under strict inert atmospheric conditions.
In addition to standard SSE-10 powder, NEI offers custom synthesis for modified LSPS variants and a broad range of other sulfide-based solid electrolyte compositions.

LSPS XRD Pattern
Note: Due to the highly reactive and air-sensitive nature of sulfide electrolytes, particle size distribution testing is not performed, and custom particle size tailoring is not available for LPSCl or other sulfide-based materials.
Product Safety Information
NANOMYTE® SSE-10 is a flammable solid that requires strict handling precautions due to its extreme reactivity with moisture. When exposed to ambient air or water, LSPS rapidly hydrolyzes to generate hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S)—a toxic, flammable, and corrosive compound with a characteristic rotten-egg odor. LSPS must be processed and stored exclusively under a dry inert atmosphere (such as an argon glovebox) while using appropriate personal protective equipment and continuous H2S gas monitoring. In the event of a fire, never use water or foam; only Class D dry powder or inert dry suppressants should be applied.
Precautions for Safe Handling
Handle in a controlled environment, under inert gas. Never allow product to come in contact with moisture or water. Appropriate personal protective equipment should be used at all times. Avoid contact with eyes and skin. Provide good ventilation or extraction and avoid breathing vapors.
Conditions for Safe Storage
Store under inert gas in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Keep container tightly sealed and protect from moisture. Never allow product to get in contact with water during storage.
Refer to the Safety Data Sheet for complete information on the safe handling and storage of this material.
Shipping Classification
LSPS is classified as a Dangerous Goods (Hazmat) shipment due to its water-reactive and toxic properties, requiring regulated UN-certified packaging, proper hazard labeling, and strict compliance with air or ground transport regulations. Small quantity exceptions (30g or less) may apply.
