石墨市场By Product Type (Natural Graphite and Synthetic Graphite); By Application (Foundry, Refractory, Battery, Lubricant and Others); By Regions, Segments & Forecast, 2018 - 2026

Report Summary

估计全球石墨市场规模估计2018年至2026年至2026年的CAGR在4.9％。

世界经济的增长是推动石墨市场的主要因素。增加对来自各种行业的钢铁，铝和其他金属的需求促使对合成电极的需求推动，因为这对于通过电弧炉工艺生产的钢是必不可少的。乐动体育网址多少此外，石墨电极也用于其他冶金应用。在全球范围内越来越多的新颖和技术高级网点，从燃料电池到石墨烯的范围也有望增加石墨市场上产品的销售数据。

碳纤维，由于其巨大的需求，过去四年过去四年度目睹了两位数增长，从而越来越多的各种行业的需求，包括汽车，航空航天，风力涡轮机和其他几个行业。乐动体育网址多少碳纤维属性的重量和高强度是其对同行的显着提高需求的主要优势。

Mounting use and hence production of lithium ion batteries that are used widely in electric vehicle and several electronic gadgets is yet another factor driving product demand as graphite is a crucial component of these types of batteries. Expandable graphite, new product that has been introduced in the graphite market few years back has gain significant momentum in 2016-17. The product is considered as a high quality flame retardant building construction material and is also considered environmentally. Globally developing construction industry has increased the need and demand for expandable graphite especially in China as its government has laid out several regulations supporting its use in building construction. Hence with such increasing demand from various industrial processes and yearly increase in product production has significantly influenced the graphite market in the present industry scenario.

Segment Analysis:

The global graphite market is segment based on product type, end-use and region. The product segment is further segmented into natural and synthetic. End-use segmented included are foundry, refractory, battery, lubricant and others. Synthetic graphite was the dominant segment in 2017 with volume accounting for over 2 million metric tons the same year. Rising demand for electric arc furnace in steel production is the major factor driving for electrodes, which is a major product of synthetic graphite. Among the naturally derived graphite, flake graphite is expected to be the leading segment by 2026. The product segment will capture majority of its share from amorphous graphite owing to the increasing importance of high tech technologies and rising availability of flake graphite.

Battery and refractory segment were the leading end-use segments in 2017. Increasing product use in batteries and refractory materials is driving its demand. Foundry is yet another potential segment with the highest growth rate over the forecast period.

Regional Analysis:

Asia Pacific is expected to be the largest regional market in the global graphite market, owning to its largest consumption of graphite. China’s large manufacturing economy makes it produce around one-third of overall graphite globally. The country is also one of the top consumers of graphite worldwide. Other potential consumers include Japan, the U.S., India, Germany, Russia and South Korea. Product demand is scattered within the developed economies, mainly of the Western Europe, the U.S., Japan and China. The Chinese mainly dominated the natural graphite industry where as production of synthetic graphite is distributed among several nations and every single producer plays a significant role in marinating the global demand supply scenario.
