Lithium
Cobalt Oxide Market: Introduction
·
Lithium cobalt oxide, also called lithium cobaltate or lithium
cobaltite, is a dark blue or bluish-gray crystalline solid. It is commonly used
in the positive electrodes of lithium-ion batteries. The compound is now being
used as cathode in some rechargeable lithium-ion batteries.
Key
Drivers of Global Lithium Cobalt Oxide Market
·
The global
lithium cobalt oxide market is expected to expand significantly due to
an increase in demand for lithium cobalt oxide in battery applications
·
Li-cobalt is used in mobile phones, laptops, and digital cameras
owing to high specific energy of lithium cobalt oxide. Batteries consist of
cobalt oxide cathode and graphite carbon anode.
·
Increase in demand for lithium-ion batteries in various
applications such as mobiles and computers is expected to drive the lithium
cobalt oxide market during the forecast period
Battery
Application Segment to Dominate Global Market
·
In terms of application, the battery segment accounted for major
share of the market in 2019. Currently, the most popular lithium-ion technology
in battery is the lithium-cobalt oxide (LCO) battery, which has a cathode
composed of LiCoO2.
·
The main feature of the LCO battery is high energy density,
which translates into a long run-time for portable devices such as cell phones,
tablets, laptops, and cameras. The cathode material contains 60% cobalt and
accounts for 50% of the weight of the cathode.

Asia Pacific to Hold Significant Share of Global Lithium Cobalt
Oxide Market
·
In terms of region, the global lithium cobalt oxide market can
be divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Middle
East & Africa
·
Asia Pacific is a major consumer of lithium cobalt oxide across
the globe. China and India possess significant potential for many application
areas of lithium cobalt oxide. Being a major manufacturing hub for electronic
products, China holds immense potential for the growth of the lithium cobalt
oxide market. Increase in production of lithium-ion batteries in smart phones
and electric vehicles is driving the lithium cobalt oxide market in China.
·
Europe accounted for key share of the global market in 2019. Key
associations in Europe, such as the Association of European Automotive
Industrial Battery Manufacturers and PRBA, are promoting the usage of
lithium-ion batteries in different applications. This, in turn, is likely to
boost the demand for lithium cobalt oxide in the near future.
·
Significant investment in R&D of battery production,
presence of a well-established automotive sector, high production of electric
vehicles, and investments by governments to increase battery production in
North America and Europe are key factors driving the lithium cobalt oxide
market in these regions
·
Significant expansion of the battery sector in Germany, France,
Italy, South Korea, Japan, India, and China is projected to boost the demand
for lithium cobalt oxide in these countries in the near future
