About Albemarle Corp

Albemarle Corp Performance Chemicals Division, doing business as Albemarle and its subsidiaries, is a leading global specialty chemicals company that provides a wide range of products and services to the federal government. Registered in SAM.gov since June 2002, Albemarle is structured as a corporate entity and classified as a for-profit organization and manufacturer of goods. The company specializes in lithium, bromine, and catalysts, serving customers in various industries including energy storage, petroleum refining, consumer electronics, and automotive.

Through federal contract awards, Albemarle has primarily supplied chemical products to defense and civilian agencies. The company has delivered lithium hydroxide to the Naval Sea Systems Command for multiple contracts, including a recent $11,700 purchase order for Albemarle-brand lithium hydroxide with specific particle size control for system testing. Other defense-related contracts involved supplying zirconium metal, lithium aluminum hydride powder and tablets, and cleaning compounds for turbine engines to agencies such as the Office of Naval Research and TACOM Life Cycle Management Command. Civilian agencies, including the Federal Correctional Institution El Reno and the Federal Acquisition Service, have procured cleaning compounds and solvents from Albemarle. These contracts demonstrate the company's expertise in producing specialized chemical products for various government applications, with a focus on lithium-based materials and cleaning solutions.

Albemarle has also secured significant federal grant awards to support critical mineral production and advanced battery technology development. In September 2023, the company received a $225,967,885 Defense Production Act Title III Cooperative Agreement from the Department of Defense Washington Headquarters Service to restore lithium mining operations at its King's Mountain mine through December 2027. This project aims to bolster domestic lithium production capacity for advanced battery manufacturing in military and civilian electric vehicles. Additionally, Albemarle was awarded a $394,066,046 project grant from the Department of Energy to establish a lithium materials processing plant in Kings Mountain, North Carolina, set to be completed by June 2024. This grant, part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law initiative, further enhances critical mineral supply chains for electric vehicle and energy storage applications. Lastly, Albemarle Corporation secured a cooperative agreement with the Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy for thin-film lithium metal manufacture by room-temperature electrodeposition, demonstrating the company's involvement in cutting-edge energy storage technology research and development.
