Electric accumulators; lithium-ion, including separators, whether or not rectangular (including square)

HS v2022 Code: 850760

About electric accumulators; lithium-ion, including separators, whether or not rectangular (including square)

HS code 850760 covers the import and export of lithium-ion electric accumulators, a critical component in the rapidly growing global market for rechargeable batteries. These batteries are essential for powering a wide range of electronic devices, from smartphones and laptops to electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems. As the demand for portable power and sustainable energy solutions continues to rise, the lithium-ion battery industry has become a key driver of economic growth and technological innovation across numerous sectors.

Production process

The production of lithium-ion batteries involves a complex process that includes the manufacture of the battery cells, assembly of the battery packs, and integration of various electronic components. The key steps in this process include the preparation of the electrode materials, the construction of the battery cells, and the final assembly and testing of the complete battery systems. Advances in materials science, cell design, and manufacturing techniques have enabled the industry to continuously improve the energy density, safety, and cost-effectiveness of lithium-ion batteries.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of lithium-ion batteries include lithium-based compounds (such as lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide), graphite, cobalt, nickel, and other metals used in the electrodes and other components. Additionally, the industry relies on specialized manufacturing equipment, including cell assembly lines, coating machines, and testing facilities. The availability and cost of these raw materials and production resources can significantly impact the overall competitiveness of the lithium-ion battery industry.

Production outputs

Lithium-ion batteries produced under HS code 850760 are primarily used in a wide range of electronic devices, including 851712 Telephones for cellular networks or for other wireless networks, 847130 Portable digital automatic data processing machines, weighing not more than 10 kg, and 870321 Motor cars and other motor vehicles principally designed for the transport of persons, including station wagons and racing cars, with spark-ignition internal combustion reciprocating piston engine of a cylinder capacity not exceeding 1,000 cc. The outputs of this industry also serve as inputs for other HS codes, such as 850720 Lead-acid accumulators, 853710 Boards, panels, consoles, desks, cabinets and other bases, equipped with two or more apparatus of heading 8535 or 8536, for electric control or the distribution of electricity, and 854231 Processors and controllers, whether or not combined with memories, converters, logic circuits, amplifiers, clock and timing circuits, or other circuits.
