Analysis of driving factors of aramid coated separator in lithium-ion battery market

1. Upgraded safety demand: Enhanced thermal runaway protection

Safety risks of high energy density batteries:

As the battery energy density exceeds 300Wh/kg, the risk of thermal runaway increases significantly. The thermal decomposition temperature of aramid coated separator reaches 500℃ (far exceeding the 200℃ of ceramic coating), forming a physical barrier at high temperature to delay heat diffusion.

Improved pass rate of needle puncture test:

The puncture resistance of aramid coating reaches more than 50N (about 15N for ordinary separator), which significantly reduces the risk of needle puncture short circuit and meets safety standards such as GB 38031-2020.

2. Popularization of fast charging technology: Demand for heat resistance surges

4C fast charging scenario adaptation:

Under 4C rate charging, the battery temperature rise can reach more than 80°C. The thermal shrinkage rate of the aramid coating is <2% (150°C), ensuring the stability of the diaphragm structure and avoiding lithium dendrite puncture.

Cycle life optimization:

The electrolyte wettability of the aramid coated diaphragm is increased by 20%, reducing the internal resistance and supporting high-frequency charging and discharging.

3. Policy compliance pressure: safety standards are becoming stricter

Global safety regulations are upgraded:

China's "Safety Requirements for Lithium-ion Power Batteries for Electric Vehicles" requires that batteries pass 13 tests such as overcharge, over-discharge, and short circuit.

The EU "Battery Regulation" requires that there is no open flame within 5 minutes after the power battery has thermal runaway.

Automotive safety certification threshold:

Tesla, BYD, etc. require diaphragm suppliers to provide UL2580, IEC62133 and other certifications, and the pass rate of aramid coated diaphragms is more than 95%.

4. Cost-effectiveness: Cost-effectiveness exceeds ceramic coating

Material cost comparison:

The cost of aramid coating is about 1.2 yuan/m² (1.5-2 yuan/m² for ceramic coating), the stacking process is simplified (no high-temperature sintering is required), and the overall cost is reduced by 18%.

Improved yield rate:

The aramid coating process is compatible with the existing wet-process diaphragm production line, and the yield rate exceeds 95% (about 90% for ceramic coating).

5. Emerging market applications: high-end scene penetration is accelerated

Solid-state battery transition plan:

Aramid coating, as a solid electrolyte carrier, improves the interface compatibility of solid-state batteries and is expected to account for 30% of the solid-state battery diaphragm market in 2025.

Energy storage and special fields:

Home energy storage: adapted to long cycle scenarios (>6000 times), aramid coated diaphragms account for 15%.

Aerospace: Meets RTCA DO-160G standards and is used for satellite and drone batteries.

6. Technology iteration: composite coating innovation

Aramid + ceramic composite coating:

Combining the heat resistance of aramid and the electrolyte wettability of ceramic, the overall performance is improved by 30%, which has been verified by CATL and LG New Energy.

Nano modification:

Para-aramid nanofiber coating (diameter <50nm) increases the porosity of the diaphragm to 55% and the ionic conductivity by 40%.

7. Supply chain localization: domestic substitution is accelerated

Breakthrough of Chinese enterprises:

Zhongke Technology and Taihe New Materials have achieved localization of aramid stock solution, breaking the DuPont monopoly and reducing costs by 40%.

Enjie Co., Ltd. and Xingyuan Materials have mass-produced aramid coated diaphragms, and the production capacity is expected to reach 1.5 billion m² in 2025.

Export substitution effect:

The price of Chinese aramid diaphragms is 35% lower than that of imported ones, and the global market share may exceed 40% in 2025.

Summary: The aramid coated diaphragm market is driven by safety regulations, fast charging technology, and cost optimization. Chinese companies need to focus on technology iterations such as nano-modification and composite coatings to consolidate their competitive advantages in the high-end battery market.
