Since 2006, China has implemented temporary export controls on graphite products, including those used as negative electrode materials for batteries.

The top ten innovative technologies for Zero Carbon China were also released at the event, including the Mingyang Smart Energy MySE18MW offshore wind turbine, automatic carbon electrode hydrolyzing technology for hydrogen production from wind, light and electric sources, and the hydrogen energy carbon nanotube catalyst and membrane electrode industrialization technology.

GEM, backed by more than 5,100 employees and more than 10 manufacturing bases across China, sold 91,000 metric tons of positive electrode precursor materials to domestic NEV battery makers through its recycling business in 2021, jumping 120 percent year-on-year.

New materials like carbon nanotubes can be refined from the exhaust gas of the mines and turned into resources, including electrode materials for lithium batteries of new energy vehicles.

Electrode pads with less resistance imported from Italy are key components.

Therefore, it used to take at least three months for Jousing to import the electrode pads in indirect, inefficient ways.

With the first 20 electrode pads arriving at the beginning of the year, Jousing immediately began R&D into AEDs tailor made for children.

The company's second-generation membrane electrode assembly made its debut at the event, which was organized by the China Society of Automotive Engineers and the International Hydrogen Fuel Cell Association.
