South Korean media quoted industry news reports that China approves to export graphite to major battery industry manufacturers.
Yonhap News Agency reported on Sunday (January 14) that China approved the battery material production subsidiary Posco Future M of the Korean Iron and Steel Giants Posco Group (POSCO) in late December last year.The spherical graphite material required for production.The company is the only secondary battery material leader in South Korea's only positive and negative materials.
China also approved the three major Korean battery companies such as LG New Energy, SK Innovation and Samsung SDI to export the finished graphite -littering materials.
Reporting a source of supply chain sources said that although China has strengthened export control over graphite items, it has approved a series of graphite export permits including Korean companies.
The Chinese Ministry of Commerce and the General Administration of Customs announced in October last year that the high -sensitive graphite products that have been temporarily controlled before will be officially included in the export control list from December 1, which stipulates that high purity, high strength, and high density with high density stipulatesThe natural scale graphite and its products, including the artificial graphite materials and its products, as well as the natural scale graphite and its products, including the ballized graphite and the expansion graphite, cannot be exported without permission.
Graphite can be processed into nuclear graphite and can be used for military affairs. Since July 2006, China has implemented temporary control on the above graphite items in accordance with China's relevant provisions of the export of nuclear products.
According to the statistics of the Ministry of Commerce Resources of the South Korean Industry, South Korea imported the total value of artificial and natural graphite worth about $ 241 million (about 321 million yuan), of which 93.7%came from China in 2022, of which 93.7%came from China.
The report issued by the South Korean Trade Association last October stated that if China and the United States have evils, the exports of Korean battery companies in the United States may be postponed and returned.Actively develop silicon -based negative material technology that can replace graphite to reduce supply risks.
