Visão geral
Scope of the Report
The global Lithium-Ion Battery CNT (Carbon Nano Tube) Conductive Agent market size is predicted to grow from US$ 1,840 million in 2025 to US$ 17,770 million in 2032; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 38.7% from 2026 to 2032.
The current preparation methods of CNT mainly include chemical vapor deposition (CVD), laser evaporation, graphite arc method, and hydrothermal method. However, due to the shortcomings of high cost and difficulty in industrial production for the latter three, CNT manufacturers use choose to use CVD. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), including multi-walled CNTs (MWCNTs) and single-walled CNTs (SWCNTs), are employed as conductive additives in lithium ion batteries. CNT paste is a new highly efficient conductive agent for Li-ion Battery, which can replace the traditional conductive agents such as carbon black, graphite & carbon fibre. It has some excellent characteristics of high LD ratio, big SSA value & low volume resistivity, can be used in various specifications of electrode materials, such as LFP, LCO, LMN, NCM, graphite, etc.
Global key manufacturers of lithium-Ion battery CNT (Carbon Nano Tube) conductive agent include Tenneco, OCSiAI, SUSN Nano (Cabot Corporation), Qingdao Haoxin New Energy, Wuxi Dongheng New Energy, etc. The top five manufacturers together account for more than 77% of the market share.
In terms of product type, Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) is the largest segment, with a share of 80%. And in terms of application, Lithium-Ion Battery for EVs has a share about 64 percent.
