Graphite, an allotrope of carbon, is used in a wide range of industries including steel, refractory, and batteries. Natural graphite has been proven to be a better alternative to synthetic graphite, which is generally produced from petroleum or coal tar. Natural graphite is environmentally friendly, has a higher purity level, and is less prone to defects in its structure. These properties make natural graphite a popular choice among battery manufacturers.
The process of natural graphite production involves the extraction of raw graphite from the earth and the subsequent purification process. Natural graphite deposits are primarily found in China, Brazil, and Canada. The raw graphite is extracted from the mines and is then transported for further purification. The purification process involves several stages, including crushing, grinding, and flotation.
The crushed and milled graphite is then further purified using chemical treatments to remove impurities such as sulfur, ash, and iron. This ensures that the final product has a high level of carbon content. The purified graphite is then shaped and molded into the desired form, which could be flakes, powders, or blocks, depending on the intended application.
Yunai Carbon Co., Ltd., with over 15 years of experience in carbon production, will combine its expertise with the latest technology to produce high-quality natural graphite. The company recognizes the importance of sustainable production and will ensure that its production processes are environmentally friendly. By investing in natural graphite production, Yunai Carbon Co., Ltd. aims to meet the growing demand for sustainable batteries and other products derived from natural graphite.
Speaking on the announcement, the CEO of Yunai Carbon Co., Ltd., Mr. Zhang, said "Our decision to invest in natural graphite production is driven by the increasing demand for sustainable products.
