CATHODE POWDERS

Cathode materials are the main component of Li-ion batteries; it determines the energy density of a cell through cell voltage and/or capacity. Lithium ion batteries are typically based on intercalation/deintercallation compounds, where lithium ions provided by the cathode are inserted into the host lattice (anode) during charge and extracted during discharge, with a minimal structural change in the host material. The choice of cathode material with a particular chemistry depends on various factors, including cell voltage, capacity, energy and power capabilities, cycle life, and temperature of operation.

RotaLab provides lithium manganese nickel oxide (LMNO) and other type of cathode materials that are suitable for a wide range of applications.
