1. Top 5 aluminum foil manufacturers in China in 2022

Battery aluminum foil is mainly used as battery current collector. Regardless of the packaging route, battery aluminum foil is used for the positive and negative electrodes of lithium batteries and sodium batteries. The development of sodium battery also becomes more and more popular and there occurs lots of sodium manufacturers. We can have a look at the top 10 sodium ion battery manufacturers in China.

According to the data, each GWh ternary battery requires 300-450 tons of battery aluminum foil, each GWh lithium iron phosphate battery requires 400-600 tons, and each Gwh sodium battery requires 800-1000 tons. The demand for battery aluminum foil is higher than that of lithium batteries in the field of sodium batteries. Next, let’s take a look at the top 5 aluminum foil manufacturers in China in 2022.
