EV Car or Electric vehicle at charging station with the power cable supply plugged in on blurred nature with blue energy power effect. Eco-friendly sustainable energy concept.
Globally, BASF is conducting research into innovative cathode materials that make electromobility a reality. BASF’s innovations for high-performance lithium-ion batteries will help double the real range of a mid-size car from 300 to 600 km by 2025 and significantly reduce the charging time of electric vehicles. For the production of small test batteries, a scientist pours the cathode material paste on an aluminum foil. The cast film will then be dried and compacted. Later it will become the cathode, the positive pole of a lithium-ion battery.
