Speaking of graphite, it should be familiar to everyone, as it is contained in the pencils we use.

Our country discovered a huge graphite deposit as early as 17 years ago, but due to technological reasons, it was not fully utilized.

However, on September 4th this year, our country made a significant breakthrough in the purity of graphite, and we have caught up in the field of graphite.

So, how is the development of graphite in our country?

When it comes to graphite, people might not immediately think of what it is, but when it comes to pencil lead, everyone is familiar with it.

The pencils we use for drawing contain graphite.

In fact, our country has always been a major reserve country of graphite in the world.

However, in 2013, Brazil surpassed China to become the world's largest graphite reserve country.

At that time, many scientists began to worry about the development of our country's graphite industry.

Fortunately, in 2017, a rare large graphite deposit was discovered in Heilongjiang, China, with a reserve of more than 35 million tons.

Moreover, the structure of this graphite mine is simple and suitable for open-pit mining.

The discovery of new graphite mines in 2017 made our country the largest graphite reserve country in the world again, successfully defending our country's position in the field of graphite reserves.

Seeing this, you may wonder what is the use of graphite?

In fact, the range of graphite applications is very large.

In addition to its role in pencils, graphite also has a large space for use in industry and military.

The extensive use of graphite has given it a very noble title - black gold, which is also in line with the status of graphite in the manufacturing industry.

After discovering several graphite mines, our country has also begun to export a large amount of graphite while developing graphite, becoming the world's largest graphite exporter.

So, what is the current situation of graphite development in our country?

Although our country has a large reserve of graphite, our country was behind foreign countries in the purity of graphite in the early stage, which also made our country's graphite exports mainly primary graphite.

Moreover, these primary graphites are produced by many countries, resulting in very low export prices.

Compared with the low price of primary graphite, the export price of high-grade graphite has reached hundreds of thousands of yuan per ton.

The huge price gap can be imagined as a huge loss for our country in graphite trade.

Moreover, at that time, our country had to spend a lot of money to import high-purity graphite from abroad.

In order to change this situation, our country's related scientists have been deeply engaged in the research and development of high-purity graphite.

After many years of development, on September 3, 2024, our country developed an ultra-high purity graphite product with a purity of up to 99.99995%.

The successful development of ultra-high purity graphite filled the gap in our country's graphite field, and at the same time, it also promoted the development of other industries in our country.

The emergence of high-purity graphite products has filled the gap in our country, but our country has also encountered many difficulties in the development of high-purity graphite.

In the process of developing ultra-high purity graphite, our country has been monopolized by countries led by the United States, and our country has spent a lot of money to purchase ultra-high purity graphite from abroad.

Our country is a major reserve country of graphite, but our country has to purchase graphite from abroad.

The "hardship" in the middle is only known by our country itself.

In the development process, in addition to the technical blockade, our country has also been greatly restricted in related equipment.

It is necessary to know that the purification of high-purity graphite needs to go through multiple processes, let alone the development of ultra-high purity graphite.

In the development process, our country's scientific researchers have overcome difficulties bit by bit, constantly tried and made mistakes, and finally achieved results.

Moreover, in the development process of our country, some Western countries have also "secretly" raised the price of ultra-high purity graphite.

They also said that there is a reason, which is simply "targeting" on the face.

However, our country has not given up the research on ultra-high purity graphite.

On September 3 this year, our country successfully developed ultra-high purity graphite!

The development of our country's graphite field has always been accompanied by thorns, but fortunately, we have now successfully developed high-purity graphite.

So, how should our country's graphite develop in the future?

The successful development of ultra-high purity graphite not only fills the gap in our country, but also changes the pattern of the world's high-purity graphite.

It is necessary to know that our country has always been in a state of catching up in some technical research and development, which also makes our country constrained by others in these fields.

Not only do we have to spend a high price to import from abroad, but we also have to worry about the sudden changes of these countries.

The development of ultra-high purity graphite has made our country realize the transformation from a follower to a leader, and at the same time, the purity of our country's ultra-high purity graphite has successfully led the purity of graphite in the world today.

Our country has also realized the export of graphite of various purities, further increasing the amount of our country's export trade, and also allowing the world to see the change of China.

China is not only developing "Made in China" but also vigorously developing "Made in China".

In addition, the emergence of ultra-high purity graphite has also greatly improved our country's industrial development.

It is necessary to say that graphite has a wide range of uses in industry.

The emergence of ultra-high purity graphite has greatly improved the quality of our country's industrial machinery, allowing our country's industry to have better performance in the subsequent production process.

In the field of new energy, ultra-high purity graphite also has a large space for use.

The batteries we use in our lives all contain graphite, and we can imagine the batteries in new energy vehicles.

The emergence of ultra-high purity graphite can improve the power transmission of new energy vehicles and reduce the loss during charging.

It not only reduces the construction cost for new energy vehicle manufacturers, but also reduces the charging cost for consumers.

The development of ultra-high purity graphite products not only fills the gap in our country, but also improves the status of our country in the field of graphite, and also allows our country to have more development in subsequent production.

With the development of technology, the range of graphite applications is also continuously increasing, and the development and use of high-precision equipment are also inseparable from graphite.

Graphite has also become an important strategic energy.

In the subsequent development, our country should also actively develop graphite, allowing graphite to exert its strength in more fields and promote the development of our country.
