This week, battery companies have resumed work one after another, and the sound of inquiries and inquiries in the field has increased. Affected by the fluctuation of nickel salt, cobalt salt and lithium salt at the raw material end, waste ternary and lithium iron batteries have a small range. Some manufacturers believe that it is more cost-effective to purchase materials from the first end to make products than from the new material end, which can reduce costs, and are willing to raise the price slightly to promote the transaction. Waste lithium cobalt oxide batteries account for a small market share, and there is no information on the purchase of goods. At present, practitioners are looking forward to the next development of waste batteries.

Pole pieces and black powder: a small number of transactions in the scrap market, and the holders have a strong willingness to raise prices

In the first week of the year, the scrap market is gradually on the right track. At the beginning of the week, the number of market inquiries was small, and the wet process plant purchased goods from the previous year's scrap ***, and the stockholders responded flat; In the middle of the week, due to the fluctuation of lithium salt and nickel salt**, the wet process plant increased its procurement**, and the market transaction gradually increased. Ternary electrode powder** to 74% off, lithium iron phosphate electrode powder** to 3800 yuan lithium point, and the holder has a strong willingness to raise the price, and it is expected that the waste will run in the short term.

After the year, the impact of waste ternary batteries on the fluctuation of nickel salt, cobalt salt and lithium salt at the raw material end showed a small amount. Although some practitioners intend to purchase, there is no information on the goods released by the holders, and the wait-and-see atmosphere in the market is relatively strong, and there are few real transactions in the market.

After the year, the waste lithium iron phosphate battery ** has been raised to a certain extent, and the sentiment of the inquiry and interrogation in the field is getting better. Some enterprises that resumed work after the holiday tentatively inquired about the goods, and some manufacturers wanted to ship iron-lithium soft packs. However, there is still a certain psychological gap between the two sides, and it is difficult to make a deal. Waste pure cobalt batteries are not inquired about for the time being, and they occupy a small market share.
