Problems solved by technology

Controlling the ratio of Ni, Co, and Mn elements is one of the key factors to optimize the performance of ternary cathode materials. If the Ni content is too high, the safety performance of the battery will be reduced, and if the Co content is too high, the material cost will be increased. Lead to problems such as low material capacity and structural instability
At present, the ratios of the three elements Ni, Co, and Mn in the synthetic materials are 1:1:1, 4:2:4, 5:2:3, 6:2:2, and 8:1:1. Coating modification is carried out, but a better modification method has not been found to balance the synergistic effect of the three elements, which seriously affects the performance of the material and the commercialization of the product
[0003] Take LiNi 0.5 co 0.2 mn 0.3 o 2 The safety performance of the power lithium-ion battery as the cathode material is worrying, and its low-temperature performance cannot meet the needs of consumers.
