Technological Hegemony

Luo Luojia continued to write on the whiteboard quickly, listing domestic manufacturers of lithium battery anodes, as well as their market share and technology level.

"From this table, we can clearly see that the current market share of lithium battery cathode materials in China has reached 53% of the world, and it is still accelerating."

所以 "So, if we enter the battery industry, the positive electrode material will adopt a strategy of cooperation with domestic suppliers. At the same time, we also need a research group to study the possibility of improving the positive electrode material."

After Luo Luojia said, he picked up a new whiteboard.

"Next is the negative electrode material, that is, graphite. The negative electrode material accounts for 10% of the total battery cost. The top three in the world are China's Bertrand, the neon Hitachi Chemical, and the unreliable Shanshan Group. . "

"The three giants together accounted for 70% of the global negative electrode materials, and have completely monopolized the market. The technology industry is cruel. The same is true of the new energy industry. The former hegemony of negative electrode materials, neon carbon, Mitsubishi Chemical , Neon JFE, it's all gone now, who did it? "

"Of course, it is Bertrand and the unsettling Shanshan. They did it. It is estimated that they will deal with the last overseas manufacturer of the Big Three, Hitachi Chemical."

Sahahahaha ~

众 Everyone laughed in the conference room and then applauded.

Everyone feels more and more like to listen to Luo Jia's pre-war meeting. Perhaps knowledge can really change a person's temperament. Unconsciously, Luo Jia has become more and more confident, and there are still some funny people. Little humor.

Luo Luojia waited for everyone's laughter to stop, took out a third white board, and wrote on it.

"The third largest raw material is the electrolyte, which is lithium hexafluorophosphate. Before I start the analysis, I will tell you a little story."

"Before 2011, the price of lithium hexafluorophosphate was as high as 340,000 yuan per ton, but this year's price was only 80,000 yuan per ton. In a short period of time, the price was cut again and again, all the way to the original price of 100 yuan. Twenty-five-three. "

"why?"

"Because the monopoly was broken!"

"Before 2011, Neon Rising Chemical, Morita Chemical, Kanto Denka, monopolized the global market, for every one ton of lithium hexafluorophosphate we buy from them, they will get 80% of net profit!"

"But when Chinese manufacturers made lithium hexafluorophosphate, they realized that the original thing would sell 80,000 yuan per ton and make money, which is the price of technological monopoly!"

Everyone sighed and heard the same thing. Because of the lack of technology, the tuition fees paid over the years are really amazing. The road to scientific research is a long way to go.

Luo Jia wrote the names of several companies on the whiteboard. "The current market structure is that China's polyfluoride and polyfluoride are the world's first, Neon Morita is second, Neon Rising is third, and China ’s Tianci and Bicon are ranked fourth And fifth. "

所以 "So our lithium battery project will directly purchase electrolyte from domestic manufacturers."

Then, Luo Jia picked up the fourth white board, and her expression suddenly became serious.

"The last of the four raw materials for lithium batteries is the separator."

"Unlike the previous three major raw materials, this industry is still ruled by giants. After acquiring Negel Asahi Kasei in the United States, Neon Asahi Kasei has formed the world's strongest diaphragm manufacturing group. Followers are Neon Dongran, Neon Ube, and SK in South Korea. "

"There are three major companies participating in the competition in China, namely Xingyuan, Zhongke, and Jinhui. Among them, Xingyuan and Sichuan University cooperate. It is the only manufacturer in China that has mastered the two methods of stretching porosity and phase separation, according to This year's data, they are already the fourth largest player in the world and have achieved good results. "

"But unfortunately, we have higher requirements for technology. Currently, the thickness of the separator mainly used in the market is 7 microns, and we must strive to compress the thickness of the separator to less than 3 microns. After all, the separator guarantees the safety of lithium batteries. Important materials, we must not make jokes about safety. In addition, the thickness and weight of the separator material will also determine the most important parameter of a battery, the energy density. "

"In order to achieve this goal, we need to conduct in-depth research on the upstream materials of the diaphragm, PP and PE, and in-depth research and development of the equipment for manufacturing the diaphragm, mainly the mold temperature machine."

Luo Luojia said his requirements and assumptions, and the smiles on everyone's faces gradually disappeared.

The first three raw materials have mature manufacturing systems in China, which has created the illusion that it is easy to make lithium batteries.

Starting from the diaphragm, the difficulty of research and development has increased explosively!

The experts in the conference room who engaged in materials, machinery, chemistry, and heat research all felt that their breathing was cramped and their heart beats faster and faster.

It is indeed the blood of the technology industry. It's really hard to make this little lithium battery!

Luo Luojia's speaking speed became faster and faster, he took out the fifth whiteboard, the sixth whiteboard, the seventh whiteboard, and the eighth whiteboard!

"The problem of the separator has been solved, and there are still more problems waiting for us." Luo Jia said seriously, "In addition to the alloy hard packaging, industrial lithium batteries also need to adopt flexible packaging, but the aluminum used in industrial soft packaging Plastic film is currently dominated by giants. China's self-produced aluminum plastic film ~ www.wuxiahere.com ~ only accounts for 7% of the world. "

"Neon DNP, Neon Showa Electric, Neon Letterpress Printing, Neon Licun, monopolize the global aluminum-plastic film industry, we will develop aluminum-plastic film-forming processes and develop corresponding machines."

"In addition, there are winding machines, to pole slice cutting machines, to welding and winding integrated machines, electrode lamination machines, assembly machines, four-in-one molding machines, these special machinery and equipment, all of which are not bad, we all have To conquer! "

Luo Luojia's voice was agitated, but Yaque was silent in the conference room.

Everyone can't believe their ears. Even the top elites in various industries, they are a little scared at this moment.

The common people always feel that a small lithium battery has no technical content.

After listening to Luo Jia's in-depth research, everyone will collapse!

I do n’t want to make anything at all, it ’s really easy.

But if you want to make a good lithium battery and challenge Panasonic, the global overlord, you will have to spend countless money and invest in dozens or even dozens of top R & D teams!

This is probably the charm of the technology industry. Few people really understand the hidden investment behind an inconspicuous technology product and how much research and development personnel's effort is consumed.

Luo Luojia shrugged, "Now you understand, why do I say that the lithium battery project is a hard bone, because it is really hard, it is not easy to get rid of it."

而且 "Also, this is only Plan B. Since the battery project is so important that it affects the future of all mankind, the company will launch a dual-line combat solution for the first time!"

After speaking, Luo Jia took out today's ninth whiteboard!

Began to write quickly.

After seeing what Luo Jia wrote on the whiteboard, everyone's face changed at the same time.
