According to China's goal of achieving power battery energy density of 300Wh/kg by 2020, it is inevitable that the material combination form of NCM 811/nca with silicon-carbon anode is adopted.
In the first half of this year, the application of NCM 811/NCA materials in the power battery market gradually increased. As the core equipment technology of high nickel anode materials involves upgrading and adjustment, the production process control is more strict than that of conventional anode materials, which drives the technical upgrade of material equipment manufacturers. In general, the core equipment that high nickel anode materials enterprises need to upgrade and replace mainly includes: furnace, drying equipment, crushing equipment, grinding machine, dehumidification equipment, etc.
As for the silicon carbon negative electrode, due to its low coulomb efficiency for the first time, the demand for lithium anode automation equipment has been derived. The irreversible capacity loss of the cathode during the first charging process can be supplemented to achieve the purpose of improving the first coulomb efficiency (energy density can be increased) and the battery capacity (range can be increased). It can be predicted that, with the market volume of silicon carbon power battery, the market demand of lithium equipment will be further driven.
