POSCO Future M to develop methane gas-based natural graphite anode material
POSCO Future M said on March 19 it will secure raw materials for natural graphite anode materials without relying on mining. It signed a memorandum of understanding with U.S.-based Molten to jointly develop methane gas-based natural graphite anode material feedstock. Under the plan, Molten will produce graphite through methane pyrolysis, and POSCO Future M will process it into spherical graphite via its subsidiary Futuregraph before final production at its Sejong plant.
