Global Lithium Cobaltate Market 2016 - Nichia, Toda Kogyo, L&F, UMICORE, Santoku, Hunan Ruixiang, Shanshan, Tianjin B&M
Lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) is a chemical compound commonly used in the positive electrodes of lithium-ion batteries. Batteries produced with LiCoO2 cathodes, have very stable capacities, but have lower capacities and power than cathodes based on nickel-cobalt-aluminum (NCA) oxides. Issues with thermal stability are better for LiCoO2 cathodes than other nickel-rich chemistries although not significantly.
