Lithium Iron phosphate battery
Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery
Lithium Iron Phosphate Battery (LiFePO4)
also short form (LFP)
A lithium Ion rechargeable battery
Use LiFePO4 as a anode material
A relatively new and revolutionary
battery for Industrial and
consumer electronics
LFP vs Other kinds of Lithium battery
Three types:
 Lithium Cobalt Oxide (LiCoO2) (LCO)
(Use in most consumer electronic devices, mobile phone, tablets, notebook)
 Lithium Manganese Oxide (LiMn2O4) (LMO)
 Lithium Iron Phosphate (LiFePO4) (LFP)
LFP vs Other kinds of Lithium battery
LCO
* Higher energy density
* Safety concerns, relatively easy to
catch fire, explode (recent 787
planes battery issue)
LMO
* Safer
* High temperature performance very
bad, decade extremely fast at 50C
* More expensive
LFP vs Other kinds of Lithium battery
LFP
* Best Safety Characteristics
(not required BMS, battery management
system and protection module)
* Long cycle life (>2000 times)
* Good availability on material
* Higher discharge current
* Lower energy density (overcome by our
proprietary Nano Technology to
increase energy density)

Major Advantages and Characteristics of LFP
Safest and the Most Environmental friendly
(overcharge and overheat can cause fire and explosion for other Lithium battery but not LFP)
Fast “forced” Charging
(because an overvoltage can be applied)
Large overcharge tolerance and Safer Performance
(can overcharge 30V w/o protection circuit, i.e. best for high power and
large capacity application)
Higher energy density
(specific capacity> 145Ah/kg, gravimetric energy density is 130Wh/kg)
Major Advantages and Characteristics of LFP
Simplified Battery Management system and Battery Charger
(because large overcharge tolerance and self-balance characteristics, i.e. low cost)
Longer Cycle life
(LiCoO2 is around 300, LFP can be > 2000)
High Temperature Performance > 70C, remain stable even at 160C
High current discharging
(e.g. standard 2-5C, continuous high current discharge can be 10C, temporary high current
discharge can be 20C (10s))
No Memory effect
