Growth Drivers

In graphite, carbon atoms are organized hexagonally in a planar condensed ring structure, wherein layers are stacked parallelly. It is found in igneous and metamorphic rocks. It can be found naturally as well as produced synthetically. Synthetically in can be produced through wide range of carbon comprising substances such as coal tar pitch, petrochemicals, coals, and acetylene). At temperature levels higher than 4000oC (super-heated), the carbon atoms reorganize themselves into layers to from graphite.

Synthetic graphite is known in the graphite industry to have better purity (over 99% carbon content) than natural graphite and is used is high-end applications wherein graphite purity is the priority. Graphite has excellent electrical conductivity, high mechanical strength, better lubricity, low coefficient of thermal expansion & friction, and good thermal shock resistance. Besides, a growing perception about graphite as an immensely promising potential material in the world of clean energy technology will drive the growth of global graphite market.

Overview of Key Segments    

Synthetic Graphite Dominates

Synthetic graphite accounted for more than 60% of the total graphite market in 2019. It is used in range of applications including electrodes, Li-ion battery anodes, synthetic carbon, lubricants, foundries, refractory materials, conductive fillers, coatings, graphite shapes, and recarburisers. Majority of the synthetic graphite is consumed for electrodes. These electrodes are used in electric arc furnaces (EAF), and melting furnaces in steel making and silicon plants. In the past few years, steel production with EAF technology has increased and is expected to boost the demand for graphite electrodes. Synthetic graphite is preferred as compared to its natural counterpart owing to its ability to handle very high electric currents due to its high conductivity, and purity.

Ample Opportunity Spotted for Natural Graphite

Natural graphite is available in two major categories: amorphous and flake graphite. Flake graphite holds more than half of the share of natural graphite and is one of the fastest-growing product categories owing to rise in demand from rechargeable batteries. Flake graphite is converted into spherical graphite (SpG), a product with superior purity and electrical conductivity making it an ideal material for anodes in Li-ion batteries. Natural graphite flakes are used in the production of flexible or expanded graphite, one of the fastest-growing markets for Li-ion batteries. It is manufactured by treating natural flake graphite with diluted acid solution and heating to cause expansion in the process splitting the flakes apart. This product has huge market potential in thermal management and battery storage applications, which is anticipated to thrust the development of graphite market over the coming years.     

Electrodes, Refractories to Remain Major Traditional End Users

Steel production and other metallurgical activities such as electrodes, refractories & foundries, recarburizers, and friction products are the largest consumers of graphite currently, accounting for more than 65% of the total graphite market. High purity graphite electrodes are consumed every 8-10 hours in steel manufacturing with EAF technology. Currently, EAF technology accounts for around 1/4th of the total steelmaking and the growth is expected to accelerate over coming years thus driving the demand for graphite electrodes. EAF steelmaking production is considered as a big winner in the race to produce steel in carbon neutral and eco-friendlier way. With growing demand for steel from various end users such as automotive, aerospace, and electronics, the demand for graphite is likely to boost over the years to come.

Battery to Exhibit Huge Market Potential   

Rechargeable Li-ion batteries is one of the fastest-growing applications with a huge market potential for graphite. Batteries segment is anticipated to growth with a CAGR of 14.1% between 2021 and 2025. The world LIB production is anticipated to reach 1,500 GWh by 2025. Graphite is the most dominant anode materials used in Li-ion batteries. Graphite is most used in lithium manganese oxide (LMO), lithium cobalt oxide (LCO), and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries. Although, batteries represent relatively small share in the global graphite market, with technological advancements the sector offers the largest growth opportunity for spherical and expanded graphite over the coming years. Li-ion battery growth is majorly driven by vehicle electrification, electronic devices, and grid storage.

Growth Opportunities Across Regions

Primacy of Asia Pacific Intact  

Asia Pacific, led by China, remained the major consumer of graphite worldwide. Asia Pacific accounted for more than 55% of the volume share in 2019. China is the world’s largest producer of steel accounting for more than half of the total production (1,869.9 million tons) in 2019. In the past few years, China has ramped up the production of EAF steel mills wherein, graphite electrodes are in great demand. Furthermore, other countries in Asia Pacific region such as India, and other Southeast Asian countries are expected to add new EAF-based steel mills over the coming years. This is expected to boost the growth of graphite market in the region. Countries such as Japan, South Korea, and China are also of the largest producers of Li-ion batteries and battery materials, who are likely to offer huge growth potential for graphite.

Developed Western Markets Stable

Companies in Europe, and North America are developing an integrated supply chain for graphite owing to rising response to the graphite anodes from the battery sector. Growing investment in e-mobility, and grid-scale battery storage is projected to enhance the consumption of graphite in these regions. Additionally, demand from traditional end users such as steelmaking, and refractories is expected to remain stable over the coming years.

FAQs : Graphite Market

The global graphite market is expected to be valued at US$26.8 Bn by the end of 2025, wherein synthetic graphite accounts 85% of the total market value.

Fairfield Market Research projects the global graphite market to grow with a CAGR of 7.2% by 2025, chiefly driven by robust outlook for natural flake graphite.

Growing demand for graphite electrodes in EAF steel manufacturing coupled with flourishing rechargeable batteries market are the key factors influencing the demand for graphite.

With more than 55% share, Asia Pacific is anticipated to hold the highest volume share by 2025. Countries such as China, Japan, and South Korea are major manufacturing hubs for lithium-ion batteries, and the demand for graphite as an anode material will boost the overall graphite market in the region.

To compete in a China dominated graphite market, non-China based graphite companies are focusing on strategic alliances with graphite mining companies to secure long-term supply of flake concentrate to remain competitive.

Our Research Methodology

Considering the volatility of business today, traditional approaches to strategizing a game plan can be unfruitful if not detrimental. True ambiguity is no way to determine a forecast. A myriad of predetermined factors must be accounted for such as the degree of risk involved, the magnitude of circumstances, as well as conditions or consequences that are not known or unpredictable. To circumvent binary views that cast uncertainty, the application of market research intelligence to strategically posture, move, and enable actionable outcomes is necessary.
