Nickel, when refined and alloyed suitably, enhances the properties of the battery components by increasing their energy density. This superior energy density directly translates into improved performance parameters such as extended driving range and longer battery life for electric vehicles.
These batteries power our EVs and are crucial components in various modern technologies. Among the key ingredients of lithium-ion batteries, nickel stands out due to its unique properties. Its energy density and capacity retention make it essential in EV battery manufacturing.
In the realm of battery technology, a direct correlation exists between the concentration of this transition metal and the energy density, with increased amounts leading to heightened performance. The sourcing and refining processes of nickel play a pivotal role in defining its effectiveness within batteries used for electric vehicles.
When more nickel is incorporated into a cathode, it greatly increases the battery’s ability to store energy, and thus, the range of the EV. As a result, nickel-rich NMC (such as NMC811, where the “8” denotes 80% nickel) is of great interest and importance.
