Prices in the national electricity market averaged $87 per megawatt-hour in the first three months of the year, above the level promised by the federal government. Wholesale electricity prices for industry and large businesses have already exceeded the level promised by the federal government, adding another cost pressure to the economy. Prices in the national electricity market averaged $87 per megawatt-hour in the first three months of this year, up more than two-thirds from the December 2021 quarter, the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) said recently. That's up 141% from the March 2021 quarter.
Because of the ever-changing international situation, the supply and prices of international bulk aluminum oxide are still very uncertain.
What is ceramic diaphragm?
Ceramic coating special diaphragm: With PP, PE or multi-layer composite diaphragm as the matrix, the surface is coated with a layer of nano-sized aluminum oxide material, which is closely bonded to the substrate after special process treatment. It can significantly improve the high temperature resistance and safety of lithium-ion batteries. Ceramic coated special diaphragm is especially suitable for power batteries.
Requirements for diaphragms for lithium-ion batteries:
The performance of the diaphragm determines the internal resistance and interface structure of the battery, and then determines the battery capacity, safety performance, charge and discharge density and cycle performance.
Therefore, the following characteristics need to be met:
Good chemical stability: resistance to organic solvents.
Good mechanical properties: high tensile strength and high puncture strength.
Good thermal stability: low thermal shrinkage and high film breaking temperature.
Electrolyte wettability: good compatibility with electrolyte and high liquid absorption rate.
As a kind of inorganic substance, aluminum oxide has high thermal stability and chemical inertia, so it is a good choice for battery diaphragm ceramic coating.
Performance requirements of ceramic diaphragm for alumina:
1. The particle size is uniform, which can be well glued to the diaphragm without blocking the diaphragm aperture.
2. Alumina has high purity and can not introduce impurities, which affects the internal environment of the battery.
3. The requirement of crystal structure of alumina ensures the compatibility and wettability of alumina to electrolyte.
Advantages of coating alumina diaphragm:
High temperature resistance:
Alumina coating has excellent high temperature resistance and can maintain the intact shape of the diaphragm above 180 degrees Celsius.
High security:
The alumina coating can neutralize the free HF in the electrolyte and improve the acid resistance and safety of the battery.
High magnification:
Nano-alumina can form solid solution in lithium battery, which can improve the magnification and cycle performance.
Good wettability:
Nanometer alumina powder has good liquid absorption and liquid retention ability.
Unique self-turn-off characteristics:
The closed-cell characteristic of polyolefin diaphragm is maintained to avoid safety risks caused by thermal runaway.
Low self-discharge rate:
The alumina coating increases the curvature of micropores and the self-discharge is lower than that of the common diaphragm.
Long cycle life: reduce the mechanical micro-short circuit in the cycle process and effectively improve the cycle life.
Aluminum oxide Price
The price is influenced by many factors including the supply and demand in the market, industry trends, economic activity, market sentiment, and unexpected events.

Affected by the present complex international situation and the epidemic, the future of global financial markets, futures markets, and stock markets is still highly uncertain. For this reason, I suppose the price of the aluminum oxide would continue to rise.
