This statistic displays the global graphite supply from 2011 to 2014, and a forecast until 2020, by flake size. In 2016, supply of large graphite flakes is expected to reach 126 thousand metric tons. Natural graphite is primarily used for refractory parts due to its high heat resistance. It has also been used in one of the longest lived and highest performing battery anodes developed.
