https://www.verdict.co.uk/south-korea-facing-graphite-shortages-following-china-import-controls/?cf-viewSouth Korea’s trade minister Ahn Duk-geun has revealed in an interview with Bloomberg that the country is facing growing graphite shortages and may have to seek out alternative sources outside of China.
Graphite is commonly used in battery anodes of electric vehicles (EVs).
The shortages coincide with updated Chinese import controls that will require graphite producers to apply for import licences. The country has credited this move as an effort to protect national security.
China has already tightened its imports of other critical materials, such as gallium, in an effort to fight off US semiconductor controls.
Duk-geun stated that South Korea would try to find “an alternative source” of graphite.
