Global Hard Carbon Anode Precursor Market Growth 2024-2030

Global Hard Carbon Anode Precursor Market Growth 2024-2030

Hard carbon is a solid form of carbon that cannot be converted to graphite by heat-treatment, even at temperatures as high as 3000°C. It is also known as char, or non-graphitizing carbon. More colloquially it can be described as charcoal. Hard carbon is produced by heating carbonaceous precursors to approximately 1000°C in the absence of oxygen. Among the precursors for hard carbon are polyvinylidene chloride (PVDC), lignin and sucrose. Other precursors, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and petroleum coke, produce soft carbon, or graphitizing carbon. Soft carbon can be readily converted to graphite by heating to 3000°C. Hard carbon is currently the mainstream anode material route for sodium batteries. The commonly used hard carbon precursors are mainly bio-based, such as moso bamboo, coconut shell, starch, walnut shell, etc. At the same time, chemical raw materials such as anthracite, pitch, and phenolic resin can also be used. Synthetic polymer precursors such as phenolic resins are also included.
