Will ternary lithium lead the lithium battery market in the future?
Next month, the new national standard will be implemented, which is an important node for the electric vehicle industry. Many industry insiders predict that the development of lithium batteries will go further. As we all know, the three core components of electric vehicles are: battery, electric control and motor. Among them, the battery provides important support for the continuous endurance of electric vehicles, and when it comes to batteries with high endurance, one has to talk about ternary lithium batteries!
Ternary lithium battery refers to a lithium ion secondary battery that uses ternary polymers such as nickel cobalt manganese lithium or nickel cobalt aluminate as the cathode material. It refers to a polymer containing three metal elements: nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), manganese (Mn) or aluminum (Al). The difference in the cathode material also determines the different performance of the battery in terms of energy power, endurance and cycle life.
Next, we will analyze the reasons for the continuous expansion of the ternary lithium battery market share in recent years. What are the advantages of ternary lithium?
1
High density, long-lasting battery life
Relative Compared with lithium iron phosphate batteries, the energy density of ternary lithium batteries is greater, so for the same weight of battery packs, the capacity of ternary lithium batteries is larger, and the battery life of electric vehicles is longer. In addition, the higher energy density ternary lithium can reduce the overall weight of electric vehicles, which is also an inevitable choice under the new national standard and under the weight restriction.

Higher charging efficiency
In addition to battery life In addition, charging efficiency is also an important criterion for judging the performance of lithium batteries. Ternary lithium has obvious advantages over lithium iron phosphate in terms of charging efficiency. For electric vehicles, there are two key factors restricting their development: one is the long-lasting battery life, and the other is the charging time. Just like the fast charging function commonly available in mobile phones nowadays, it brings a better user experience to mobile phone users. Similarly, the current high-efficiency charging performance of ternary lithium will also bring a different experience to electric vehicle users.

Broad market prospects
Currently, electric The automobile market mainly chooses lithium iron phosphate and ternary materials as the cathode materials of lithium batteries. Ternary lithium has very broad prospects in terms of energy density and breakthroughs in technology applications. It is understood that in recent years, all aspects of ternary lithium batteries have been continuously improved. The increase in the number of cycles can be achieved by appropriately increasing the cost. Moreover, the safety performance of ternary lithium batteries has also been improved, and they are constantly approaching lithium iron phosphate.
In the future, the electric vehicle battery market will be further differentiated and shuffled. The ternary lithium battery will rely on its high energy density, long-lasting battery life, high charging efficiency and an open market Advantages such as prospects, go further!
