【CATL Self-Generating Anode】Sodium-Ion Battery: Energy Density Boundary: Self-generating anode, energy density increased by more than 50%. In terms of high energy density battery expansion, it pioneered a non-expanding anode. Cycle Life: High-energy SEI construction. Safety: Reconstructed electrolyte system, combined with surface electric field regulation and separator shield layer design, achieving high safety. Green Environmental Protection: Sodium-ion battery carbon emissions are up to 60% lower than lithium batteries, green and low-carbon throughout the life cycle. Energy retention rate at -40 degrees Celsius is greater than 90%, extreme cold as normal temperature. Energy density 175 Wh/kg.

SMM Daily Review: Spot lithium carbonate price drifts lower on July 24

[SMM Daily Review: Spot Lithium Carbonate Prices Drifted Lower on July 24] SMM battery-grade lithium carbonate spot prices drifted lower compared with the previous working day. In the futures market, the lithium carbonate 2609 contract opened lower at 144,200 yuan/mt today, drifted lower after opening, moved sideways below the average price line (143,800 yuan/mt) in the morning, and hit a low of 141,300 yuan/mt; around midday, bulls and bears repeatedly struggled in the 141,000–144,000 yuan/mt range, with trading volume increasing in stages; in the afternoon, bulls briefly exerted strength, pushing the price to surge to 145,800 yuan/mt, before it encountered bearish selling pressure and drifted lower. The contract then consolidated at lows around 144,300 yuan/mt in the late session, finally closing down 0.88% at 144,300 yuan/mt. Open interest decreased by 13,209 lots. In the spot market, downstream purchase willingness moderated, with purchasing mainly as needed; upstream lithium chemical plants continued to hold prices firm and hold back from selling for spot orders, trading more with downstream through long-term contracts. Overall, market inquiries and actual transactions relatively slowed down.
