China's CETC achieves mass production of ultra-high purity graphite, impacting EVs, semiconductors, and more.

Ultra-high purity graphite, defined as having a carbon content exceeding 99.99%, exhibits exceptional self-lubrication, conductivity, corrosion and high-temperature resistance, and chemical stability.Graphite is a versatile form of carbon used in a wide range of industries, from electronics and aerospace to nuclear power.

Moreover, CETC’s new production process allows for the creation of ultra-high purity graphite at a lower cost than traditional methods. However, Minmetals’ breakthrough is still experimental, and its commercial viability is currently under evaluation. Aviation is another industry in which high-purity graphite is a highly sought-after material. Because it can withstand extreme temperatures and harsh conditions, it plays a crucial role in constructing several aerospace components.
