SHENZHEN, China, Aug. 1, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- The Chinese first mandatory standard, GB 31241-2014
Lithium-ion cells and batteries used in portable electronic equipments -- Safety requirements, was officially implemented on August 1, 2015. From today onwards, lithium-ion cells and batteries contained in mobile power, mobile phones, laptop computers, digital cameras and other portable electronic equipments have to pass a series of complicated and strict tests to ensure that they are safe, and then they can be sold in the market.
Compared with other rechargeable batteries, lithium-ion cells and batteries have advantages of higher voltage, higher energy density, pollution-free, fast charge, low self-discharge rate and so on. They are widely used in mobile power banks, laptop computers, digital cameras and other products closely related to people's lives.
Cells and batteries are the key components of all digital devices; they are not only related to the operation duration of equipments, but are also the key elements of the safety of equipments. Poor quality of lithium-ion cells and batteries will cause fire, explosion and other accidents, and also lead to people's property loss; serious accidents can endanger the safety of life.
That is the reason why China will implement GB 31241-2014. Once the GB 31241-2014 is implemented, some unqualified manufacturers or factories and their products will be eliminated, the reputation of corporate brand will emerge in the market, the consumers will more and more chase after the high quality and safety.
In the future, we absolutely have reasons to believe that the brand concentration ratio will be enhanced in the market of lithium-ion cells and batteries, and the batteries made in China are expected to excel Japanese and South Korean batteries and will become the safest batteries in the world.
According to relevant regulations in China, the lithium-ion cells and batteries produced by enterprise must be submitted to the laboratories authorized by relevant government departments to be subject to the tests regulated in GB 31241-2014.
Recently, the Shenzhen NTEK Testing Technology Co., Ltd., the professional battery certification and testing provider, successfully obtained the testing qualification of GB 31241-2014.
That means the test reports of GB 31241-2014 issued by NTEK can be approved by the certification body and directly used to apply CQC certificates. In addition, NTEK can be based on the latest Indian and South Korean requirements to apply BIS and KC certification.
For your brand to be more competitive, don't hesitate to select NTEK to apply certifications for your products.
What are your thoughts on this really interesting Race to take advantage of the Tech Drivers?

MRL Corporation and China are a match made in heaven; particularly considering the amount of Capital China is Spending on Batteries and there is a clear need for SL Vein's Purity...
The amount of Capital expenditure and Quality Control bodes well for the Industry and MRL Corporation can include them in their list of Customers. I would not be surprised that as soon as it is available China or America will soak it all up....
This is just my opinion but there is indicators behind the logic in my opinion.
Research and Markets reported today that the global Li-ion battery market for consumer electronics to grow at a CAGR of 3.6% over the period 2014-2019. And China is decreasing rapidly in terms of the market share.
According to Research and Markets, the supply of motion controller increases by over 20% year by year, in 2014, the market supply of motion controllers in China was 1...

Accordring to the “Global Li-ion Battery Market for Consumer Electronics 2015-2019”, which was released by Research and Markets, that Li-ion battery production has grown tremendously in China since 2005.
Japanese manufacturers dominated the Li-ion battery market for decades. However, since the major setbacks in 2008 and 2011, Japan's share has fallen dramatically and has been taken by South Korea and China. The country's extremely business-friendly environment and cheap and high quality labor has attracted Li-ion production facilities.
According to the report, the cost of Li-ion batteries is decreasing rapidly as these devices find an increasing number of end-user applications. Li-ion batteries cost about four to eight times more than lead acid batteries and one to four times more than Ni-MH batteries in 2010.
However, the costs have reduced significantly because Li-ion batteries find higher use in many applications such as BEVs, PHEVs, HEVs, uninterruptible power supply, forklifts, consumer electronics, and back-up power supplies. As the market grows and production scales up, manufacturers will be able to enjoy significant economies of scale.
MRL Corporation and China both can grow their positions together and that is good for a Small Cap like MRL Corporation in my opinion. China is the world leader in Graphene and SL Vein is the world leader in Graphite...
It is not much of a logical stretch to see how quickly MRL Corporation can be a producer with premium price Off-take Agreements.
Fascinating really because Graphiters have been all over this for years but I think SL Vein is going to overtake them.
Who knows...
The special properties of SL Vein are beyond question in my opinion....
