21700 battery cell annual summary, you will understand it in seconds after reading this article

Preface
In recent years, energy storage has become a development issue in the field of new energy. In order to increase the energy density of battery packs and reduce the number of batteries in the battery pack, many new energy companies have launched 21700 model lithium-ion power batteries with larger capacity. The first batch of 21700 batteries produced in China has a cell capacity of 4000-4500mAh and is specially developed for new energy products.

Large-scale replacement of 21700 batteries by new energy is one of the ways to upgrade the energy density of new energy products, and upgrading from 18650 batteries to 21700 batteries is the development trend of power batteries. For example, Tesla and Panasonic cooperated in the MODEL series of models A large-capacity 21700 cylindrical battery is introduced to improve the cruising range.

21700 battery core science
The size of the 21700 lithium battery is 21mm in diameter, 70mm in length, weighs about 68g, and has a capacity of 4000mAh to 5000mAh. It is the latest cylindrical lithium battery standard developed by Tesla Motors of the United States and Panasonic of Japan. This type can achieve the best balance between volume and capacity to replace the old 18650 battery.

21700 lithium cell 1

The 21700 battery cell is a high-energy storage power battery cell with a high discharge rate and can be discharged instantly. It is often used in high-frequency power tools such as electric vehicles and electric drills. Compared with the 18650 battery cell, the 21700 battery cell does not have an increase in energy due to volume. , but by reducing the cobalt content and increasing the nickel content to effectively increase the battery energy. Because the metallic properties of nickel are relatively active, increasing the nickel content can greatly increase the energy density, so that the endurance will be improved when forming a battery pack. In addition to 18650 and 21700 batteries, there are also 4680 batteries with larger volume and energy storage.
