In June, domestic artificial graphite supply remained sufficient, and the price and product specifications had significant advantages over overseas products. Therefore, domestic producers' demand for overseas artificial graphite further decreased, leading to a reduction in import volume. Overseas, due to limited previous purchases and the mid-year rush, demand increased, leading to a rise in China's artificial graphite material exports. In July, with the overall market cooling down, overseas demand for battery cells and raw material artificial graphite is expected to decline, and the export volume of artificial graphite is expected to decrease.
