HED NCMs

Superior Quality Cathode Materials

BASF offers a portfolio of application specific cathode materials to support high energy density, safety, and improved efficiency for lithium-ion batteries.  

Features & benefits

BASF’s HED family of Li-stabilized NCM cathode materials offers customers a unique combination of energy, power, safety, and cost for high performance lithium-ion batteries. BASF offers three pilot plant products – NCM-111, NCM424, and NCM-523 – with varying ratios of Ni:Co:Mn. We also offer pilot plant samples of our next generation cathode material, HE-NCM, to selected customers.
