Read More2021-10-1 · During the period of 2001 to 2018, domestic production of amorphous graphite experienced a rapid growth and reached its peak of 1410 Gg in 2006. Since then, such production decreased until only 200 Gg of amorphous graphite was mined in 2015. Meanwhile, flake graphite production experienced a steady increase from 300 Gg in 2001 to 800 Gg in 2018.

Read MoreNatural Graphite, an excellent conductor of heat and electricity, is a mineral composed of graphitic carbon. It is stable over a range of temperatures, with the melting point of around 3650°C. There are three types of natural graphite. High crystalline. Amorphous. Flake. 2. Synthetic Graphite. Synthetic graphite is produced from coke and pith.
