    As a lithium source in the production of lithium battery cathode materials, lithium hydroxide is mainly used for the production of high nickel cathode materials in ternary materials, which is closely related to the development of the new energy automobile industry
    .
    The production and sales of new energy vehicles have increased significantly this year, and the demand for lithium hydroxide is also rising rapidly


    .


    In addition, due to strong overseas demand, China's lithium hydroxide exports are also significantly improving
    .
    According to customs statistics, in May this year, China’s lithium hydroxide exports amounted to 612.


    993 tons, the export value was about 54.


    From the perspective of production, domestic lithium hydroxide production mainly uses spodumene concentrate as raw material

    Due to the limitation of mineral resources, the operating rate is low, and the supply of raw materials is tight, which restricts the growth of lithium hydroxide output

    .
    With the support of tighter market supply and demand, it is expected that the price of lithium hydroxide will rise steadily in the short term
