Name: Zhenhua E-Chem NCM Ternary Cathode
Material Type: Nickel-Cobalt-Manganese Ternary Cathode Material (Ni / Co / Mn = 60 / 20 / 20 by mole)
Product Code: ZH6200
Brand: Zhenhua E-Chem
Product Introduction:
The Zhenhua E-Chem NCM Ternary Cathode (Product Code: ZH6200) is a lithium-ion battery cathode material with a Ni : Co : Mn molar ratio of 60 : 20 : 20. The composition combines elevated cobalt content for structural and rate stability with a 60% nickel content for high specific capacity. ZH6200 is suitable for 4.40 V high-voltage applications and is well-matched to research and small-batch production of lithium-ion cells targeting high gravimetric capacity, balanced thermal stability, and consistent slurry processing behavior.
Key Features:
NCM ternary chemistry with Ni / Co / Mn = 60 / 20 / 20 mol% — balanced energy density and cycle stability
High first-cycle efficiency 90.8% in CR2430 coin cell (4.40–2.8 V)
High specific capacity 194.1 mAh/g at 4.40 V upper cutoff
Tight monomodal particle size distribution — D10 1.90 μm / D50 3.60 μm / D90 6.80 μm, well-suited to slurry processing
Very high tap density 2.02 g/cm³ — supports high electrode loading and energy density
Low impurity content — Fe, Na, Ca, Cu, Zn, residual Li⁺ all well below specification limits
XRD-verified NMC phase purity — matches JCPDS 70-4314 standard with no unqualified secondary phases
Dark blue powder, no agglomeration, easy to handle and process

SEM Morphology:
SEM imaging shows well-defined primary particles with a narrow size distribution and minimal agglomeration. The compact particle packing is consistent with the high tap density (2.02 g/cm³) measured by powder analysis. Two SEM images are provided at progressively higher magnification to illustrate particle morphology across length scales.

Application Areas:
Lithium-ion battery cathode for high-voltage 4.40 V applications
NCM ternary cathode research targeting high gravimetric capacity

Materials science research on nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode chemistry
Recommended Handling:
ZH6200 should be handled in a dry environment (relative humidity preferably below 30%) to minimize moisture pickup and residual Li⁺ increase. Store in a sealed container in a cool, dry place away from acidic vapors and reducing atmospheres. For slurry preparation, use appropriate solvent (NMP for PVDF binder systems) and follow standard cathode-slurry formulation protocols (active material + conductive carbon + binder). Coat onto aluminum current collector using a film coater (e.g., XN-VC-300, XN-VCH-300, XN-SDC) followed by drying and calendering (e.g., XN-CRPE or XN-HRPE roller press series).
Packaging & Storage:
Standard packaging is in sealed moisture-barrier bags inside lined drums. Store in a cool, dry environment away from heat sources, direct sunlight, acidic vapors, and reducing atmospheres. Once opened, reseal the inner moisture-barrier bag promptly and store in a dry box or dry room. Avoid prolonged exposure to ambient humidity, which can increase residual Li⁺ and degrade electrochemical performance.
Safety:
For research and industrial use only. Wear appropriate PPE (chemical-resistant gloves, safety glasses, lab coat, dust mask or respirator) when handling NCM cathode powder, especially during weighing, transfer, and slurry preparation. Avoid generating dust; transfer powders in a fume hood or with local exhaust ventilation. Avoid contact with skin and eyes; in case of contact, flush with water and seek medical attention. This material contains nickel, cobalt, and manganese, which are regulated heavy metals — handle and dispose of in accordance with local environmental and occupational health regulations. Refer to the included Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for complete safety information.
Note: Specifications listed above are typical and for reference only. Actual electrochemical performance depends on the specific cell architecture, electrolyte formulation, binder/conductive-additive composition, coating thickness, calendering parameters, formation protocol, and testing conditions — consult published literature and our technical team for guidance on specific NCM cathode electrode protocols.
