SHANGHAI, May 9 (SMM) - SMM data showed that the Chinese electrolytic manganese dioxide (EMD) output was 10,100 mt (including 600 mt for LMO battery, 6,100 mt for alkaline manganese battery, and 3,300 mt for zinc-carbon battery) in April, down 0.98% MoM and 56.65% YoY. EMD output in the first four months of 2023 stood at about 42,800 mt, down 66.80% on the year. The overall EMD output fell slightly, which was contributed by production reductions of EMD (for alkaline manganese battery and for zinc-carbon battery) despite the output increase in EMD (for LMO) with the improvement in the downstream demand.
In May, the downstream demand for EMD (for LMO battery) will improve, while the consumption of the other two types of EMD will remain poor, hence the overall EMD output may decrease further to about 9,300 mt.
