SHANGHAI, Nov 18 (SMM)—During November 17-20, SMM new energy business director Wang Tian and marketing consultant Yu Lei led SMM staff and members of the delegation to visit lithium battery raw material producers in Hunan in order to seek more in-depth cooperation opportunities. Their first stop was Hunan Kingfuli New Energy Co., Ltd.

Hunan Kingfuli New Energy Co., Ltd (hereinafter referred to as "the company") is a high-tech enterprise specialising in R&D, production and selling of ternary cathode materials and precursors for lithium-ion batteries. The company's main products are lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt aluminium oxide, lithium rich materials, lithium manganese oxide, lithium titanate, lithium iron phosphate, etc., among which the motive ternary materials are the key products.

The company has passed the certification of ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO45001, IATF16949 management system, intellectual property management system and three-level safety standardisation. The company is a national high-tech enterprise, a new material enterprise and a provincial enterprise technology center in Hunan Province, independently undertaking key scientific and technological research projects of strategic emerging industries and major scientific and technological achievements transformation projects in Hunan Province

Representatives of SMM and lithium downstream enterprises had in-depth exchanges on core competitiveness and future development planning of Kingfuli New Energy. In order to consolidate and improve its competitive advantage in the field of lithium battery cathode materials, the company implements the strategy of "cutting-edge technology research, new product development and continuous optimisation in production". In addition to continuous optimisation and upgrading of mass production products, the company has developed a number of new products, and has carried out research on solid-state batteries, sodium-ion batteries, and lithium-rich manganese based materials to meet higher requirements.

The company's own advanced precursor-making technology is a core competitiveness of new product development and industrialisation of ternary materials. The ternary materials have characteristics of high energy density, long cycle life, high safety and high power charging, which are a powerful guarantee for improving safety and driving range, reducing charging time and prolonging battery life of electric vehicles.
