1. What is a Lithium Titanate (LTO) Battery?
Lithium Titanate Oxide (LTO) battery is a type of lithium-ion battery renowned for high safety and ultra-long lifespan. With its negative electrode made of lithium titanate (Li₄Ti₅O₁₂), it outperforms traditional graphite-based batteries (such as NCM and LFP) in faster charging speed, broader temperature adaptability, and exceptionally long cycle life.
✅ Core Features:
• Ultra-long lifespan: Over 10,000 cycles (300~2000 cycles for conventional lithium batteries)
• Extreme temperature adaptability: Stable operation at -30°C~60°C (conventional lithium batteries are prone to lithium plating at low temperatures)
• Superior safety: Easily passes needle penetration test
•
Rapid charge/discharge: Supports 4C~10C high-rate charging/discharging (1C~3C for conventional lithium batteries)
✅ Application Scenarios:
• Medical devices (portable monitors, hearing aids)
• Industrial sensors (low-temperature resistance, long life)
• UAVs (high-rate discharging, low-temperature stability)
2. Advantages and Disadvantages of LTO Batteries
✅ 5 Key Advantages of LTO Batteries
1). Ultra-long cycle life (10,000+ cycles)
Ideal for scenarios requiring long-term use, such as energy storage systems and industrial equipment.
2). Extreme temperature adaptability (-30°C~60°C)
While conventional lithium batteries suffer significant capacity drop below 0°C with safety risks, LTO maintains over 80% performance.
3). Exceptional safety (no thermal runaway risk)
Suitable for high-safety-critical fields like medical devices, military, and aerospace.
4). Rapid charge/discharge (4C~10C)
Perfect for applications such as EV fast charging and UAV high-power discharging.
5). Wide voltage platform (2.4V)
Stable voltage reduces the complexity of Battery Management Systems (BMS).
❌ 3 Disadvantages of LTO Batteries
1). Lower energy density
Not suitable for applications with strict lightweight requirements (e.g., consumer electronics).
2). Higher initial cost
Long-term cost is lower due to extended lifespan.
3). Lower voltage
Nominal voltage of 2.4V; suitable BMS solutions are scarce due to limited market demand for LTO.
