I. Domestic Lithium Battery Cell Manufacturers
1. ATL New Energy
The manufacturer's main products are lithium-ion battery modules, and its cell codes include INR, ICR, and IMR.
INR indicates that the battery cell uses advanced lithium cobalt oxide cathode material, which has high rate capability and long cycle life.
ICR: This indicates that the battery cell uses traditional lithium cobalt oxide cathode material, which has high energy density but is not suitable for high-power consumption devices.
IMR: This indicates that the battery cell uses nickel-manganese-cobalt cathode material, which has high rate capability and long cycle life, and is suitable for high-power consumption equipment.
2. BAK
The manufacturer's main products are lithium-ion battery cells, with cell codes such as LiPo and LiFePO4.
LiPo: This indicates that the battery cell uses a polymer electrolyte, which has high energy density but short cycle life.
LiFePO4: This indicates that the battery cell uses lithium iron phosphate cathode material, which has long cycle life, high temperature stability and safety.
3. BYD (BYD)
The manufacturer's main products are lithium-ion batteries, with cell codes such as LiCoO2 and LiFePO4.
LiCoO2: This indicates that the battery cell uses lithium cobalt oxide as the cathode material, which has high energy density but short cycle life.
LiFePO4: This indicates that the battery cell uses lithium iron phosphate cathode material, which has long cycle life, high temperature stability and safety.
II. Foreign lithium battery cell manufacturers
1. SAMSUNG
The manufacturer's main products are lithium-ion batteries, and their cell codes include INR, ICR, and IMR.
INR indicates that the battery cell uses advanced lithium cobalt oxide cathode material, which has high rate capability and long cycle life.
ICR: This indicates that the battery cell uses traditional lithium cobalt oxide cathode material, which has high energy density but is not suitable for high-power consumption devices.
IMR: This indicates that the battery cell uses nickel-manganese-cobalt cathode material, which has high rate capability and long cycle life, and is suitable for high-power consumption equipment.
2. LG (LG Chem)
The manufacturer's main products are lithium-ion batteries, and its cell codes include LiPo and LiCoO2.
LiPo: This indicates that the battery cell uses a polymer electrolyte, which has high energy density but short cycle life.
LiCoO2: This indicates that the battery cell uses lithium cobalt oxide as the cathode material, which has high energy density but short cycle life.
3. PANASONIC (Panasonic)
The manufacturer's main products are lithium-ion batteries, and its cell codes include NCR and CGT.
NCR: This indicates that the battery cell uses cobalt-nickel-manganese cathode material, which has high energy density and long cycle life.
CGT: This indicates that the battery cell uses nickel-cobalt-aluminum cathode material, which has high energy density and high rate performance.
In general, the cell codes of different manufacturers reflect a combination of factors, including the types of positive and negative electrode materials, battery type, cell manufacturing process, and performance characteristics. When selecting a battery, it is necessary to consider factors such as required power, energy density, cycle life, and safety performance.
