Lithium Cobalt Oxide Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- LCO
- LiCoO2
Lithium cobalt oxide supplier for lithium-ion cathode manufacturers, battery developers and materials laboratories in Malaysia. Also called LCO or LiCoO2, this dark grey to black powder is purchased by phase, composition, particle engineering, tap density, moisture and impurity profile.
Commercial choices include cathode active material, surface-coated LCO and research-grade powder. Buyers should state particle-size distribution, morphology, surface area and any coating or surface treatment because these grades are not interchangeable by formula alone.
Cell and cathode producers use lithium cobalt oxide in electrode formulation, coating and battery development, while laboratories use controlled grades for materials analysis and test-cell work. NMC, lithium manganese oxide and other cathode chemistries remain separate materials.
Send the required grade, phase, particle and coating specification, impurity limits, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, suitable packing, available documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Lithium Cobalt Oxide grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lithium cobalt oxide cathode active material | dark grey to black controlled-particle powder | — | Lithium-ion cathode manufacture where particle size, tap density, lithium-to-cobalt balance and electrochemical acceptance criteria are defined by the cell producer. | Confirm moisture-protective packing with the quotation. |
| Surface-coated lithium cobalt oxide | engineered cathode powder with a declared surface treatment | — | Cathode development and production that explicitly specifies a coating or surface modification and its particle and electrochemical requirements. | Confirm moisture-protective packing with the quotation. |
| Research-grade lithium cobalt oxide | fine powder with declared purity and particle characteristics | — | Battery-material formulation, electrode preparation and laboratory evaluation requiring defined phase, purity, particle size and trace-metal controls. | Confirm moisture-protective packing with the quotation. |

Common questions about Lithium cobalt oxide
What do LCO and LiCoO2 mean?
LCO is the common abbreviation and LiCoO2 is the formula for lithium cobalt oxide, the cathode material identity covered by this page.
Is lithium cobalt oxide the same as NMC cathode material?
No. NMC contains nickel, manganese and cobalt in its cathode composition, while LCO is lithium cobalt oxide. They require separate specifications and pages.
Are coated and uncoated LCO powders interchangeable?
Not automatically. A surface treatment changes the material specification and may affect processing and performance, so the coating and acceptance criteria must be stated.
Which particle specifications matter for LCO?
Buyers commonly define particle-size distribution, morphology, surface area, tap density, moisture and fines for electrode processing.
Which purity controls matter for lithium cobalt oxide?
State phase and composition, lithium-to-cobalt basis, trace metals, moisture and any process-relevant impurity limits used by the cathode specification.
What is needed for a lithium cobalt oxide price enquiry?
Provide the grade, phase, particle and coating specification, impurity limits, quantity and delivery location, plus packing and document requirements.
