SMM March 27 news, the LFP market remained stable this week, with relatively small price fluctuations. On the raw material side, the average price of lithium carbonate remained steady this week, and the processing fee also showed no changes. However, the price of iron phosphate has recently shown a slight upward trend, prompting material manufacturers to consider proposing an increase in the Q2 processing fee to downstream battery cell manufacturers. Supply side, LFP material manufacturers maintained stable production enthusiasm this week, but some top-tier enterprises saw a reduction in order volume compared to the full production plan at the beginning of the month, and actual production did not meet the production schedule expectations. However, overall production still increased compared to February. Demand side, downstream battery cell manufacturers saw a significant increase in production schedules compared to February, especially for power battery cells and high-density materials. The LFP production increase is expected to slow down in April.
