TREE NEWS update: Fangda Carbon said at its 2026 interim results briefing on September 17 that its 6N-grade graphite, used mainly in optical fiber and semiconductors, has entered mass supply to leading optical fiber, silicon semiconductor and silicon carbide semiconductor companies, replacing imported equivalents. The company is also expanding into the semiconductor epitaxy market with ultra-high-purity isostatic graphite, semiconductor-grade high-purity carbon powder, porous graphite and carbon felt.
Fangda Carbon: 6N-grade graphite in mass supply to silicon carbide chip leaders
The significance here is less about volume than about qualification: mass supply to leading silicon carbide and optical fiber customers implies Fangda has cleared the purity and consistency hurdles that historically kept high-end graphite in a handful of foreign hands. That matters for the wider domestic supply chain, where ultra-high-purity consumables and components have been a quiet bottleneck. The open question is whether the expansion into epitaxy-related products — isostatic graphite, high-purity carbon powder, porous graphite and carbon felt — moves from announced portfolio to qualified revenue, and at what yield.
