Lithium Ion Batteries are used for many things, from cell phones to laptops to electric cars and forklift trucks, and mining locomotives.
What Are They Made Of?
Lithium-ion batteries consist of three main parts: cathode, electrolyte, and anode.
- The anode is made up of carbonaceous materials.
- while the electrolyte consists of lithium salts dissolved in organic solvents.
- Finally, the cathode is made up of Lithium-ion compound, there are many types, covers
- LiFePO4: chemical name is lithium iron phosphate, It is often abbreviated as LFP; it is the safest type compared to the below Li-batteries.
- LMO: LiMn2O4, the Nominal battery voltage usually reaches 3.8V, but with short service time, you may find it mainly been made as button cells for your automobile remote control key;
- LCO: LiCoO2, this one with lower stability to high temperature, and price higher, usually re-chargeable 500 to 1000 times,
- NMC: LiNiMnCoO2, with a middle life time, Ternary lithium battery is hot these years, but with a fatal defect that is not endurable to high temperature, this reason has caused some car burned and some people died.
What Are They Used For?
Lithium-ion batteries are used in a variety of devices, including laptops, tablets, smartphones, cameras, watches, and even electric vehicles. These batteries are also used in medical equipment, power tools, and appliances.
Upon the application scenes, li-ion battery manufacturers offer different battery packs/modules to reach the other requirement. Evoke mainly offer LFP cells and integrated Li-ion batteries for industrial purpose.
Is Lithium Ion The Same As Lifepo4?
As we mentioned above, the LiFePO4 is one cathode, which means it is just one type of many similar products, but with higher safety and affordable price to most users.
Which kind of LiFePO4 battery is Evoke good at?
Evoke Energy established long-term cooperation relationships with the main LiFePO4 battery manufacturers, covering BYD, EVE, CATL, etc. our 40A & 50A liFePO4 cells won the trust of a large number of customers from abroad, and have developed dozens of industrial battery packs for forklift, mining locomotives, golf cart, and airport tractor.
