From March 10 to March 13, 2025, electrolyte prices decreased. Cost side, the decline in raw material prices led to the decrease in electrolyte prices.

SMM March 13 News:

This week, electrolyte prices declined. The average price of electrolyte for ternary power batteries was 24,500 yuan/mt, while the average price for LFP batteries was 20,000 yuan/mt. On the cost side: The price of its core raw material, LiPF6, dropped significantly, with an average price of 60,900 yuan/mt. The prices of solvents and FEC additives also decreased, while the price of VC remained stable. As a result, the overall cost of electrolyte decreased. On the demand side: End-use demand recovered slowly, maintaining stable procurement of electrolytes. On the supply side: Electrolyte manufacturers produced based on orders from battery cell manufacturers, while LiPF6 enterprises also produced according to the order demands of electrolyte companies. The procurement status of both electrolytes and LiPF6 remained stable. In the short term, fluctuations on the cost side are expected to lead to a further decline in electrolyte prices.
