China has made another important breakthrough that will consolidate its global leadership in the field of high-tech materials. State-owned China Electronics Technology Group Corporation (CETC) is almost theoretical naivety reaching the level graphite announced that it had achieved great success in its production.

Thanks to the horizontal purification equipment developed by CETC, purity rate of graphite from 99.93 percent to 99.99995 percent It succeeded in producing low cost and high purity on an industrial scale. This new level stands out as the highest value practically achieved in graphite purity.

Used from nuclear energy to electric vehicles

High purity graphite, nuclear energy, semiconductors ve aviation It is widely used in strategic sectors such as. This material, known for its electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, high temperature stability and chemical resistance, is also electric vehicle batteries It stands out as an indispensable component for

CETC general manager Xie Yongqiang said “Our newly developed equipment successfully refined graphite powder from 99.93 percent purity to over 99.99995 percent,” the statement said. “This purity is close to the theoretical limit and impurities have been reduced to almost negligible levels.” he said.

CETC’s new process not only increases purity but also reduces production costs by 60 percent. This further strengthens China’s global competitive advantage in the graphite industry.

geopolitical trump card

China is the world’s largest producer and exporter of graphite and uses this material as a geopolitical trump card. The high-purity graphite material has been on China’s export control list since December 1, in line with a statement made by Beijing in October last year.

This decision is considered as a response to the trade restrictions imposed by the United States and the European Union against China. The West had imposed trade sanctions, describing China’s commercial practices in the electric vehicle and semiconductor sectors as “unfair”.
