Hu Guorong’s research

Mainly engaged in research on electrochemical theory and application, functional materials, etc. In recent years, he has been engaged in the research and development and industrialization of lithium-ion battery cathode materials, and has achieved outstanding results, among which cobalt, the cathode material for lithium-ion batteries, Both lithium cobalt oxide and lithium manganate have been industrialized. 120 million yuan has been invested in Changsha Economic and Technological Development Zone to build a 2,000 tons/year lithium cobalt oxide and 500 tons/year lithium manganate production base. After reaching capacity, the output value is expected to be 8 100 million yuan/year.

In the process of industrialization of lithium cobalt oxide, Professor Hu Guorong took the lead in developing and producing high-density, high-voltage platform lithium cobalt oxide products, making the cobalt acid produced by Hunan Ruixiang New Materials Co., Ltd. Lithium has become the number one brand of similar products in China and ranks among the top level of similar products in the world. It has completely broken the monopoly of China's lithium cobalt oxide market by Japan, Belgium and other countries. Lithium cobalt oxide products represented by Ruixiang Company have It has completely replaced imports, saved a lot of foreign exchange for the country, and greatly promoted the rapid development of China's lithium-ion batteries. Ruixiang's lithium cobalt oxide has been widely used by major domestic high-end lithium-ion battery manufacturers, and has been recognized by international brand companies such as Japan's Panasonic, South Korea's Samsung, and LG.
