NCM523 - Lithium Nickel Manganese Cobalt Oxide, Cathode Materials

Powder for high power Li-ion battery cathode application, (Ni : Co : Mn = 5 : 2 : 3)

Technical Data | MSDS | Literature and Reviews

Layered ternary oxide lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide, LiNi_0.5Co_0.2Mn_0.3O₂ (NCM523, or NMC532), has displayed great advantages in its relatively high energy density, low cost, low toxicity, cycle stability and safety as battery materials for electric vehicles. NCM523 is one of the most important cathode materials for next-generation lithium (Li) ion batteries due to its high capacity and cost effectiveness compared with LiCoO₂. It has been reported to have a reversible capacity of 160 mAh g^-1 at 4.3 V (vs. Li/Li⁺) and 190 mAh g^-1 at 4.5 V (vs. Li/Li⁺). Compared with LiCoO₂ cathode material, less use of Co reduces the cost; Ni contributes to a higher capacity at the expense of complicated preparation and Mn enhances the structural stability during charging/discharging.

High energy density

Most important cathode materials for next-generation lithium

low cost

Cost Effective Value

High safety

Safety tests superior to a pure NCM cell.

Worldwide shipping

Quick and reliable shipping

With low contents of cheap materials graphene (0.5 wt%) and Al₂O₃ (1.0 wt %) as additives, the cyclic stability, energy density and thermal safety of the lithium ion battery (LIBs) can be dramatically improved. The assembled cell of NCM523-Al₂O₃-Gs∥graphite delivered an impressive capacity retention of 76.9% at 3.0 C after 400 cycles. The heat generation during the discharging under 3.0 C and safety tests are also both superior to those of a pure NCM cell.
