SMM April 17 News:

This week, the price of dry-process lithium battery separators showed an upward trend, with mainstream quotations for wet-process separators (5um/7um/9um) at 1.59 yuan, 0.82 yuan, and 0.75 yuan, respectively; mainstream quotations for dry-process separators (12um/16um) were 0.46 yuan and 0.43 yuan. Supply side, with the completion of the resumption of work and production in the industry chain in March, the industry's capacity utilization rate has recovered, and a slight increase in the production schedule is expected in April. Demand side, downstream NEV and ESS demand continues to grow, which will promote battery cell manufacturers' procurement of separators. In terms of prices, as the previous separator prices were already close to the cost line, the price of wet-process separators is expected to remain stable in the near term, while the price of dry-process separators shows an upward trend.
