Technical FAQs 4

What is a square battery?

Unlike cylindrical batteries, these are designed to maximize space efficiency and provide high energy density in compact form factors. They are widely used in devices like smartphones, drones, electric vehicles, power banks, and even household items like smoke detectors and remote controls. What makes square batteries unique is their construction.

How many square cells are in a battery pack?

Electric vehicles like Tesla Model 3 employ 4,416 square lithium cells in structural battery packs. Medical devices (85% of hearing aids), drones, and renewable energy storage systems also prioritize them for space-constrained, high-energy-density requirements. Emerging uses include foldable electronics and grid-scale storage modules.

What are square battery cells?

As the name suggests square battery cells are prismatic or square-shaped lithium battery cells that have mostly steel or aluminum casings. The size, and shape of square batteries make them big capacity and less weight, and thus effectively suitable for tight spaces.

How do square batteries work?

Modern square batteries use lithium nickel manganese cobalt oxide (NMC) cathodes (60% market share) or lithium iron phosphate (LFP) for stability. Aluminum laminated film (95μm thickness) forms the pouch casing instead of metal cans. Anodes combine graphite with 5-10% silicon oxide for increased capacity.
