The quality of the additives in the electrolyte is only 3%-5%, but the cost is about 20%, which has a significant impact on the cost and price changes of the electrolyte. Lithium battery electrode liquid additives mainly include vinylene carbonate (VC), fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), propylene sulfite (PS) and DTD. Among them, VC and FEC are the more mainstream additives in the current market, and the two together account for close to 60% of the additive market.

The amount of VC added in the electrolyte formulation of LFP batteries is generally 2% to 5%. The VC additive content in the electrolyte of the ternary system is generally below 1% or even not added. The amount of VC added in the LFP battery is 3 times higher than that of the ternary battery. Therefore, VC is currently the most widely used additive in electrolytes. CAS: 554-13-2

The strong downstream demand for lithium batteries has led to a surge in demand for lithium battery-related materials. VC has also entered the price increase channel under the influence of multiple factors, boosting the price of electrolyte, and its share in the cost of electrolyte has greatly increased, second only to lithium hexafluorophosphate. Market data shows that the price per ton of VC has risen from 150,000 yuan/ton in July 2020 to 500,000 yuan/ton in September 2021, a year-on-year increase of 233%. The foreign quotations of traders have even reached 800,000-900,000 yuan/ton.

From the perspective of product profitability, VC's single ton profit may exceed 200,000 yuan/ton, and its profitability is significantly higher than that of lithium hexafluorophosphate, electrolyte and solvent. The solvent accounts for 85% of the electrolyte in the mass, and the solvent accounts for about 25% of the cost in the electrolyte. They are mainly divided into cyclic carbonate organic solvents and chain carbonate organic solvents. CAS: 554-13-2

Cyclic carbonate solvents include ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC); chain carbonate solvents include dimethyl carbonate (DMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC) and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) )Wait. Among them, EMC accounts for a relatively high proportion of ternary batteries, and DMC accounts for a relatively high proportion of lithium iron phosphate batteries.

Driven by the growth of downstream demand, the shipment volume of electrolyte solvents also increased significantly, but compared with lithium hexafluorophosphate and VC, the price increase of electrolyte solvents during the year was significantly lower than the former.

At present, domestic electrolyte solvent manufacturers mainly include Shi Dashenghua, Haike Xinyuan, Aoke, Liaoning Ganglong, and Hualu Hengsheng. There are relatively few companies capable of producing battery-grade solvents. Among them, Shida Shenghua and Haike Xinyuan electrolyte solvents accounted for the highest market share. In order to meet the growing demand of the downstream market, solvent companies are also accelerating the expansion of production, and at the same time, there are new companies entering the market.
