Cathode Materials

Q: What is the typical specific capacity of AIMRSE NMC 811 cathode material?

Our NMC 811 (LiNi₀.₈Mn₀.₁Co₀.₁O₂) delivers a reversible discharge capacity of 195-205 mAh/g when cycled between 2.8-4.3V vs. Li/Li⁺ at 0.1C. For higher voltage windows (4.4V or 4.5V), capacities up to 215 mAh/g can be achieved with appropriate electrolyte and electrode engineering. Please consult our data sheets for detailed rate and cycle life performance.

Q: Do you offer cathode materials with custom particle size distribution (PSD)?

Yes, we offer flexible PSD tailoring. Our standard D50 ranges from 3-5 µm (for high-power) to 10-15 µm (for high-energy). We can also produce bimodal distributions or narrow-cut fractions upon request. Minimum order quantities may apply for custom PSD runs.

Q: What quality control documentation is provided with each shipment?

Each shipment includes a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) reporting elemental composition (ICP), particle size distribution (laser diffraction), specific surface area (BET), tap density, moisture content, and XRD phase verification. We also provide representative electrochemical data (coin cell tests) upon request. Full material traceability is maintained.
