Innovation shares said that they are optimistic about the rising market demand for lithium-ion battery separators, and the investment is to further expand the company's production of wet-process lithium-ion battery separators. However, it also prompts corresponding risks: due to the long project cycle, it will take a long time for benefits to appear, and there are many uncertainties in market changes and the project itself. At the same time, the company's self-raised billions of capital investment will increase its own financial risks.(Lithium - Ion Battery Equipment)
