China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC), a state-owned enterprise, has developed a process that enables the mass production of graphite with a carbon content exceeding 99.99995%.
“Our newly developed equipment has successfully refined graphite powder from purity of 99.93 percent to over 99.99995 percent,” said CETC manager Xie Yongqiang.
“This purity is close to the theoretical limit, with impurities reduced to virtually negligible levels.”
Limitation of previous breakthrough:
CETC’s breakthrough has come just a few months after China Minmetals Co stunned the science community by developing ultra-high purity graphite products with a purity degree of over 99.99995%.
Applications of high-purity graphite:
Graphite is a crystalline form of carbon with a wide range of applications.
Electric vehicles require high-purity graphite in their battery anodes. The purity of the graphite directly impacts the battery's performance, affecting its charging speed, capacity, and life
