LiMn2O4 Double-Side Coated Aluminum Foil Description
LiMn₂O₄ (LMO) Double-Side Coated
Aluminum Foil is an advanced cathode material designed to enhance the
performance of lithium-ion batteries by coating lithium manganese oxide on both
sides of high-purity aluminum foil. This double-sided configuration
significantly increases the active material loading per unit area, leading to
higher energy density and improved power output compared to single-side coated
electrodes. The spinel crystal structure of LiMn₂O₄ provides excellent lithium-ion
diffusion channels, which support high-rate charge and discharge capabilities
while maintaining thermal stability and safety.
The manufacturing process starts by
preparing a uniform slurry consisting of LiMn₂O₄ powder, conductive additives
like Super P carbon black, and a binder such as polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)
dissolved in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). This slurry is coated precisely onto
both sides of aluminum foil using roll-to-roll or slot-die coating techniques.
The coated foil undergoes drying to remove solvent residues, followed by
calendaring to compact the electrode layers, improve mechanical strength, and
ensure consistent thickness and density.
LiMn₂O₄ double-side coated foil is
widely used in lithium-ion coin cells, pouch cells, and cylindrical cells for
research, development, and prototype applications. It is especially suited for
power tools, electric bicycles, and energy storage systems where safety, cycle
life, and rapid charge/discharge are critical requirements.

1. Common Preparation Methods
The preparation of LiMn₂O₄ (LMO)
Double-Side Coated Aluminum Foil involves first creating a homogeneous slurry
by mixing lithium manganese oxide (LiMn₂O₄) powder with conductive carbon
additives such as Super P and a binder like polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)
dissolved in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) solvent. This slurry is thoroughly
mixed to ensure uniform dispersion and appropriate viscosity. The well-prepared
slurry is then precisely coated onto both sides of high-purity aluminum foil
using advanced coating methods such as roll-to-roll or slot-die coating. After
coating, the foil is dried under controlled temperature and humidity conditions
to remove solvents and enhance binder adhesion. Following drying, the coated
foil undergoes calendaring, where it is compressed by rollers to achieve a
uniform thickness, increase electrode density, and improve mechanical strength.
The final product is then inspected for coating uniformity, adhesion, and
overall quality before being slit or cut into desired sizes for lithium-ion
battery fabrication, testing, and research purposes. This process results in a
high-performance cathode material with enhanced active material loading and
energy density suitable for various advanced battery applications.
