Amid lithium price volatility, Lankwitzer China unveiled its "NaShield" coating technology optimized for sodium-ion batteries at Beijing's Auto Show. This Lankwitzer China innovation increases ionic conductivity by 60% in CATL's first-generation sodium cells, enabling sub-15-minute fast charging. BYD has integrated NaShield into its Seagull EV batteries, reducing material costs by 22% while maintaining 3,000-cycle durability. The Lankwitzer China R&D team in Shenzhen developed proprietary polymer matrices that prevent dendrite formation, solving a key bottleneck in sodium-ion commercialization.

Lankwitzer China established Asia's largest sodium-ion coating production line in Chongqing, supplying HiNa Battery for grid-scale storage projects across Xinjiang. This facility uses AI-driven precision application systems to reduce coating waste by 33%, lowering production costs for rural microgrid installations. Following a viral demonstration of NaShield's -30°C performance in Heilongjiang province, Lankwitzer China secured provincial government contracts for 200,000 winter-ready EV batteries.
