Graphite is a naturally occurring allotrope of Carbon element which comes in soft hexagonal crystalline form. Its market has shown considerable growth in the historic years and its demand has reached 2,892 thousand tonnes in 2021 with a healthy CAGR of 5.24%. In terms of Value, the market value is USD 29.04 billion in 2022 from USD 16.04 billion in 2017. This is attributed to the rising consumption of Graphite in the number of end user industries such as Electronics, Metallurgy, Automotive & Various Other sectors.
Graphite has excellent properties of thermal shock resistance. Despite being a non-metal, it is stiff, has better strength & is a good conductor of heat and electricity. It has numerous advantages such as it is easy to machinery, reduces wear, thermal shock resistant, has high metal removal rate & others. By type, its market is segmented into Natural Graphite and Synthetic Graphite. Natural Graphite in its flake form is used to make expanded graphite which have applications in Li-ion batteries. Its market is projected to show remarkable growth in forecasted years owing to the rising demand & sale of electric vehicles. Synthetic Graphite accounts for around 60% of overall demand of graphite. It is used in electric arc furnace technology for Steel production which owes to its burgeoning demand. It is anticipated that its dominance will remain elevated in the coming years attributed to the fledgling Building & Construction industry which will demand Steel.
Among the key end user sectors, Metallurgy segment which includes electrodes, refractories, casting and foundry is anticipated to dominate the graphite market. Surging demand for graphite for the steel industry is likely to drive the demand in the forthcoming years. The arc furnace technologies utilize Graphite electrodes in the manufacturing of Steel, Silicon & Ferroalloys. Crucibles & mag-carbon bricks are manufactured using graphite in refractories. It is the most desired battery anode material for rechargeable batteries and the battery segment is predicted to create an incremental opening worth US$4.6 Bn between 2020 and 2025. Other applications are in lubricants sector. Thereby, progress in these end-user industries is estimated to boost the market in the forecast period. On the other side, strict environmental regulations associated with the Steel production & the development of substitute anode materials for lithium-ion batteries may hinder its market growth in the forecast period.
The Global Graphite market grew at a stable pace during the historical years. However, there was a slight decline in demand due to the coronavirus pandemic owing to the logistics slowdown and unavailability of the labour force across the world. In the year 2020, Electronics & Automotive sector suffered setback due to limitations imposed on them & as a result, there was a fall in the demand of Graphite. All the industries have continued their operations of which Metallurgy, Electronics and Automobile sector are improving and growing rapidly and in upcoming years they are likely to push the demand for Graphite especially in the developing region of APAC. Graphite is considered as a material of green energy and technology
Among different regions, Asia Pacific holds the major share in the Graphite market followed by North America & Europe. The Asia Pacific region is likely to lead the market for the forecast period supported by growing infrastructure, rising demand from Metal industry coupled with growing usage of graphite in green technologies and the popularity of graphene. The global graphite market is propelled by the high demand for lithium-ion battery industry and significant steel production through graphite electrode electric arc furnace. India is third largest producer of steel and iron in APAC region. Favoured by government policies such as National Steel Policy (NSP), the Indian market is more likely to show a growth in the coming years. India, China & Southeast Asia is undergoing rapid industrial development & there is an increasing consumption of graphite in the wind, automotive, electrical & electronics industry. Owing to all these, APAC region will remain the highest consumer of graphite.
