Purified flake graphite
Flake graphite concentrate upgraded to the high carbon purity that battery processing requires — the natural-route intermediate between mined concentrate and spheronized material. Flake and high-purity grades dominate U.S. natural graphite imports, and the purification step sits almost entirely within China's refining complex.
