The "Lithium-ion Secondary Battery Materials Market Outlook 2025-2034: Market Share, and Growth Analysis By Product Type (Cathode Materials, Anode Materials, Electrolytes), By Application, By End User, By Technology" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global Lithium-ion Secondary Battery Materials Market size is valued at USD 52.4 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 105.8 billion by 2032, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.18% over the forecast period.
The lithium-ion secondary battery materials market is witnessing robust growth driven by the surging demand for electric vehicles, portable electronics, energy storage systems, and grid storage solutions. This market encompasses key materials including cathode materials (such as NMC, NCA, LFP), anode materials (graphite, silicon-based composites), electrolytes (liquid, solid-state), and separators that enable efficient battery performance, safety, and lifespan. Manufacturers are focusing on developing high-nickel cathodes for increased energy density, silicon-graphite composite anodes for higher capacity, and solid-state electrolytes to enhance safety and thermal stability. Market growth is supported by aggressive EV production targets, renewable energy storage expansion, and government incentives for clean energy technologies.
However, challenges include raw material supply constraints for lithium, nickel, and cobalt, environmental concerns regarding mining and recycling, and technological barriers in scaling next-generation materials like solid-state electrolytes and silicon anodes. Recent developments include Umicore expanding NMC cathode production in Europe, Sila Nanotechnologies advancing silicon-dominant anodes for EV batteries, and CATL investing in solid-state battery research for future commercialisation. Government policies promoting EV adoption, localised battery manufacturing, and battery recycling regulations are further driving investments and innovation in the lithium-ion secondary battery materials market globally.
A major trend is the shift towards high-nickel cathode chemistries like NMC 811 and nickel-rich NCA to increase energy density for longer-range electric vehicles while reducing cobalt dependency for cost and ethical sourcing advantages.
