The LNCA (or NCA) is essentially an "upgraded" version of LCO (Lithium Cobalt Oxide) that seeks to maximize energy density by using a very high amount of nickel. LNCA has a 2D layered crystal structure (hexagonal). Lithium ions slide in and out of the planes between the metal-oxide layers. It has the following features: (1) Top-tier energy density: It packs a huge amount of energy into a small space, making it ideal for high-performance, long-range EVs. (2) Excellent fast-charging: It can accept a high rate of charge, which is crucial for the EV market. (3) Long cycle life: When managed properly by a good BMS, it has a very good lifespan, though not as long as LFP.
The LNCA powder was surface coated (or doped) with cerium.
