Wanshun Develops High-Dyne Battery Aluminum Foil, Enhancing Battery Efficiency and Stability
Wanshun New Material (300057.SZ) stated during an institutional survey that the high-dyne battery aluminum foil independently developed by the company features a high and stable dyne value, which enhances the adhesion between the slurry and the aluminum foil in subsequent processing, improves coating uniformity, reduces resistance, and consequently increases the battery's charge-discharge efficiency and cycle stability. It is also suitable for applications such as sodium-ion battery anodes and cathodes. The high-dyne battery aluminum foil has entered the small-batch supply stage.
