Tongxing Shifts Sodium Battery Cathode Focus to Polyanion NFPP Route, Announces Production Plans

[Sodium Battery Cathode: Tongxing Shifts from Layered Oxide to Polyanion NFPP Route] On November 22, 2024, Tongxing Environmental Protection announced a strategic shift in its sodium-ion battery project. Previously focused on layered oxides, the R&D team, after thorough validation and market survey analysis, has decided to adopt the long-cycle polyanion route for sodium-ion battery cathode active materials.

Production Line: A pilot plant with an annual capacity of 200 mt has been completed. The company has acquired 180 acres of land for the construction of a project with an annual capacity of 20,000 mt of sodium-ion battery cathode active materials. The preliminary planning of the factory has been completed. The subsequent construction progress will be determined based on product maturity and market demand. The company is expected to construct the first phase of the project with an annual capacity of 6,000 mt of sodium-ion battery cathode active materials or adopt a tolling business model to flexibly respond to market demand.
