As an important basic material for lithium battery cathodes, battery aluminum foil has higher requirements in strength, dyne value, thickness, etc. than ordinary aluminum foil, and its preparation process is more complex. With the rapid development of the new energy automobile industry, the demand for battery aluminum foil has also grown rapidly.
According to cited Internet data, the total global demand for battery aluminum foil is expected to reach 488,200 tons, 663,000 tons and 885,500 tons by 2023, 2024 and 2025 respectively. It is expected that by the end of 2025, more than 150 sets of aluminum foil rolling mills will be added to the market, and the new battery aluminum foil production capacity will exceed 1 million tons.
Although data shows that the demand for battery aluminum foil will be approximately 900,000 tons by the end of 2025, actual production capacity may not be fully released. He also introduced the difficulties faced in releasing battery aluminum foil production capacity and the challenges in production organization. Difficulties in releasing battery aluminum foil production capacity include technical, management and talent barriers, long certification cycles, and relatively low product yields. These factors may limit the release of battery aluminum foil production capacity.
This information indicates that despite strong demand in the battery foil market, the industry still faces a number of technical and managerial challenges that need to be overcome to meet growing demand.
