Global Cathode Materials Market, by Materials (LNCA, LCO, LMO, LFP, LNMC, Lead Acid Cathode Materials, Nickel-Based Cathode Materials), by Battery (Li-Ion, Lead Acid, Ni-Based and Others), by Region (North America, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Asia Pacific, Middle East, Rest of the World) – Market Size & Forecasting (2016-2028)

Cathode Materials Market Dynamic:

A cathode material determines the energy density of a cell through cell voltage and capacity. It transports ions to the anode during the electrolysis process and enables current flows. After ions start migrating back to the cathode in the electrolyte cell, discharge current flows. The cathode material is a very important part of the cell and is the highest contributor in terms of cost of the battery cell.

Segment Analysis:

Different materials are used in different kinds of batteries. Cathode materials are one of the major building blocks of the batteries. There are mainly two categories of batteries—primary and secondary. Primary batteries are non-rechargeable, whereas, secondary batteries are rechargeable. Lead-acid and Li-ion batteries are the most widely used rechargeable batteries, accounting for approximately 95% of the global rechargeable battery market and, approximately, 65% of the global battery market, in terms of value. Other rechargeable batteries (sodium-based, nickel-based, and flow batteries) account for the remaining 5% of the global rechargeable battery market, in terms of value. Most of the demand for these batteries is witnessed from automotive, portable devices, and industrial applications.

Some of the key Impact Factors:

  • Use of batteries in energy storage devices
  • Innovation and technology advances in lithium-ion battery cathode materials
  • High demand for lithium-ion cathode technology in the renewable energy industry
