The application of semi-solid batteries in power banks
Compared to traditional power banks, the core advantages of new semi-solid batteries are mainly reflected in three aspects: safety, energy density, and cycle life.
Below is a summary of key information regarding their application in power banks:
Feature | Traditional Liquid Lithium-ion Battery | Semi-Solid Battery (Power Bank Application) | Explanation of Core Advantage |
Safety | Flammable liquid electrolyte, risk of thermal runaway | Intrinsic safety improvement: Uses solid/gel electrolyte, which is non-flammable or flame-retardant; can pass nail penetration test without catching fire or exploding. | Fundamentally resolves fire and explosion hazards caused by crushing or puncturing in power banks. |
Energy Density | Generally low, with bottlenecks for improvement | Significantly higher | Greater capacity for the same volume, or smaller, thinner, and lighter for the same capacity. |
Cycle Life | Typically around 500 cycles | Substantially extended: Manufacturer data indicates it can reach over 1000 cycles, even up to 2000 cycles. | Longer service life, lower long-term cost of use. |
Temperature Adaptability | Poor performance at low temperatures, prone to overheating at high temperatures | Wider operating temperature range: Can operate stably in environments from -20°C to 70°C or even 80°C. | Better adaptability to extreme environments like severe cold or heat, more reliable. |
Charging Performance | Significant heat generation during fast charging | Superior temperature control: Supports fast charging (e.g., 80% charge in 30 minutes) with excellent temperature rise management during charging. | Achieves "fast charging without less heating" |
Current Main Challenges and Purchasing Recommendations
Although semi-solid battery technology has broad prospects, its widespread adoption in the power bank sector still faces some practical challenges:
Higher Cost: As a new technology, its material and manufacturing costs are significantly higher than those of traditional lithium-ion batteries, which is directly reflected in the final product price.
Inconsistent Market Understanding: Definitions and standards for "semi-solid" are not yet fully unified within the industry, leading to potential discrepancies between advertised technical content and actual performance across different products.
If you are considering choosing a power bank equipped with semi-solid batteries, it is recommended to evaluate based on the following points:
Focus on Core Safety Certifications: Prioritize products that explicitly state they have passed the "Nail Penetration Test," as this is the most direct proof of their safety.
Refer to authoritative test reports: Reliable products usually disclose battery safety performance test reports issued by third-party authoritative testing institutions.
Choose Reputable Brands: Opt for brands with strong technical capabilities, as their product quality and after-sales service are relatively more reliable.
Future Outlook
As the country incorporates safety into mandatory certifications and consumers' demand for safety increases, semi-solid batteries, due to their inherent safety advantages, will become an important upgrade direction for mobile power sources and the entire consumer electronics industry.
Currently, it is regarded as a mature transitional solution towards all-solid-state batteries. In the future, as the industry chain matures and the scale effect becomes evident, costs are expected to gradually decrease.
Overall, semi-solid batteries have brought a real safety revolution to mobile power sources and are one of the best technical solutions currently for addressing concerns about power and safety.
