Market Overview:
The global granular graphite market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 6.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for granular graphite from various applications, such as batteries, carbon brush, conductive coating, refractory and others. In terms of volume, Asia Pacific is expected to lead the global market during the forecast period.
Product Definition:
A granular graphite is a type of carbon that has a very high surface area to volume ratio. This makes it an excellent conductor of electricity. Granular graphite is used in batteries, electrodes, and other electronic devices.
Natural Type:
Natural type is also known as granular graphite. It is a naturally occurring compound of carbon with properties similar to that of conventional graphite. Granular natural type has applications in various industries including chemical, petroleum, metallurgy and others owing to its unique physical and chemical properties.
Granular natural type market size was estimated at USD 11 million in 2015 and the demand-supply gap was around 40 kilotons.
Synthetic Type:
Synthetic type is a manufactured form of graphite. It can be used as an alternative to natural graphite in applications such as lubricants, paints and coatings, adhesives and sealants, printing inks, cosmetics, rubber processing industries. Synthetic type has almost the same chemical properties like natural graphite but it is produced artificially by heating synthetic raw materials such as coal tar or petroleum products at high temperatures.
Application Insights:
The batteries segment dominated the global market in 2017. The product is used as anodes in lead-acid, nickel-metal hydride and lithium ion batteries. Natural granular graphite is preferred for use as anode material in lead acid battery due to its high capacity retention ability. It can also be used as a replacement for conventional carbon steel plates because it provides longer life and better performance at a lower cost per kwhr of energy storage.
Carbon brush is another significant application of the product worldwide owing to its superior characteristics such as abrasion resistance, thermal stability, low friction coefficient and electrical conductivity which make it suitable for manufacturing high pressure/temperature industrial gas turbines & heat transfer equipment among other applications such as abrasive wheels for metal cutting machines & glass grinding mills among others.
Regional Analysis:
Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The presence of key manufacturers such as Nippon Carbon Co., Ltd.; Umicore; and GS Yuasa Corporation, Japan has contributed to this growth. China is one of the largest consumers owing to rapid industrialization along with increasing demand from electric vehicles and battery applications.
Europe accounted for a significant share in terms of volume as well as revenue in 2017 due to high demand from automotive industry for lightweight batteries that consume less energy and provide longer power storage capacity.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand from the automotive and aerospace industries for high-performance, lightweight materials is expected to drive the growth of the granular graphite market.
- Growing demand for energy storage devices such as batteries and capacitors is also anticipated to boost the market growth.
- Rising use of granular graphite in various end-use applications such as refractories, lubricants, and coatings is likely to propel the market expansion over the forecast period.
- Technological advancements in manufacturing processes are projected to create new opportunities for Granular Graphite market players in near future.
