All the major end-use sectors of graphite, including steelmaking, automotive, electronics, and electric vehicles (EVs) that faced the wrath of the viral outbreak have also held a cascading impact on the graphite market as well. The market is however likely to revive in the near future as the key consumer industries show clear signs of recovery. Graphite Consumption to Ramp up as Demand for EVs Uplifts Li-ion Battery Sales Natural graphite variant is recently gaining ground for application in production of flexible graphite that is typically used as one of the key components of rechargeable Li-ion batteries. The application base of natural graphite has been continuously expanding, of which thermal management, and battery storage mark the top ones. With an exceptionally rising rate of electric vehicle (EV) sales over the recent past, the graphite market is all set to thrive at a remarkable pace over the forecast period. On the other hand, synthetic graphite remains a dominant variant with more than 60% of the global market revenue. It has been considered as a purer form of graphite that also has higher conductivity, which would remain the key driver for its continued adoption for applications like graphite electrodes, lubricants, synthetic carbon, Li-ion battery anodes, graphite shapes, foundries, coatings, refractory materials, recarburisers, and conductive fillers. Among these key application areas, synthetic graphite adoption is prominent for electrodes. These electrodes find application in electric arc furnaces (EAFs), as well as melting furnaces functional at steel plants, and silicon plants.
