Based on Materials, the lithium-ion battery anode market has been segmented as follows:
- Active Anode Materials
- Natural Graphite
- Synthetic Graphite
- Silicon
- Li-Compounds & Metal
- Anode Binders
The synthetic graphite of lithium-ion battery anode market, by materials, is expected to be the largest market from 2021 to 2026.
Synthetic graphite is produced from pitch and coke. It is of a higher purity than natural graphite but is not as crystalline. It is used in specialty applications because of its superior uniformity and purity (>99%). Graphite end users, therefore, prefer synthetic graphite even though its price is three to four times than natural graphite, as synthetics graphite offers higher reliability and performance. Synthetic graphite provides smooth migration of lithium-ions and facilitates fast charge as compared to natural graphite. Therefore, It sees high demand for the lithium-ion battery for anode market during the forecast period.
Based on Battery Product, the lithium-ion battery anode market has been segmented as follows:
- Cell
- Battery Pack
