The pilot run involves mass production of battery cells with an energy density of 260-270 wh/kg

SHANGHAI, Nov 27 (SMM) – Sinochem International, a state-owned company mainly engaged in the chemical business, said on November 26 that a lithium-ion battery project under its Junsheng New Materials unit is about to start trial production.

The pilot run involves mass production of battery cells with an energy density of 260-270 wh/kg.

The subsidiary is looking to develop lithium-ion power batteries with higher energy density and capacity, as well as longer cycling lifespan and better safety performance.

Full operation of the project will add battery capacity of 8 million kWh, being able to meet demand from more than 100,000 electric vehicles.

Currently, the mainstream ternary batteries in China are NCM523, with an energy density of 180-220wh/kg.

PKC Makes First Shipment Of PCl₃

Korean company PKC announced that it has made its first shipment of 20 tonnes of phosphorus trichloride (PCl₃) produced at its Saemangeum Plant 1. The shipment was supplied as a paid sample for approval to a global top-tier fine chemical materials company specializing in high-performance antioxidants. The customer plans to use the material as a test feedstock in its antioxidant production process and begin full-scale quality verification. PKC’s phosphorus trichloride (PCl₃) and phosphorus pentachloride (PCl₅), which are being mass-produced at Saemangeum Plant 1, are key raw materials used in secondary battery electrolytes and fine chemical products.
