Research Summary

NCA (nickel-cobalt-aluminum) cathode is a type of cathode material used in lithium-ion batteries. It is composed of nickel, cobalt, aluminum, and oxygen. NCA cathodes have gained significant attention in recent years due to their high energy density, making them suitable for applications that require long battery life and high power output, such as electric vehicles. The inclusion of cobalt provides stability and enhances the overall performance of the cathode. NCA cathodes offer advantages in terms of energy density and thermal stability compared to other cathode materials like NMC (nickel-manganese-cobalt) or LFP (lithium iron phosphate). However, cobalt is a relatively expensive and limited resource, which has led to research efforts into reducing or eliminating cobalt content from cathodes. Overall, NCA cathodes play a crucial role in advancing battery technology and enabling the development of high-performance lithium-ion batteries for various industries.
