The Qiantu K50 uses a ternary lithium-ion battery. Most pure electric vehicles or plug-in hybrid vehicles use ternary lithium-ion batteries, which have higher energy density and are lighter in weight. The cathode of a ternary lithium-ion battery is made of ternary materials. Some ternary lithium-ion batteries use nickel, cobalt, and manganese for the cathode, while others use nickel, cobalt, and aluminum. Below is an introduction to ternary lithium-ion batteries: 1. The "ternary" in ternary lithium-ion batteries refers to a polymer containing three metal elements: nickel (Ni), cobalt (Co), and manganese (Mn) or aluminum (Al), which serve as the cathode in the battery. All three elements are indispensable and play a crucial role within the battery. 2. Ternary materials have a higher voltage platform compared to lithium iron phosphate. The higher the voltage platform, the greater the specific capacity. Under the same volume or weight, or even with batteries of the same ampere-hour, ternary material lithium-ion batteries with a higher voltage platform offer a longer driving range. Ternary lithium-ion batteries also have significant advantages in high-rate charging and low-temperature performance. 3. The capacity degradation of ternary lithium-ion batteries is irreversible. After purchasing a vehicle equipped with a ternary lithium-ion battery, it is advisable to avoid charging in extremely high or low-temperature environments. Additionally, users should pay attention to relevant precautions during daily use to extend the battery's lifespan.
