Result Exceeds Customer Specifications EcoGraf Limited (ASX: EGR; FSE: FMK; OTCQB: ECGFF) is pleased to provide an update on its HFfree proprietary purification technology for producing active anode material tailored for lithium-ion battery and electric vehicle manufacturers. Key Highlights:
These improvements are being adopted by the Product Qualification Facility (‘PQF’) which is a ‘State of the Art’ facility utilising EcoGraf HFfree™ Proprietary Technology that will produce high purity battery anode material for supply to the global battery and EV market (refer announcement dated 26 March 2024 titled ‘Product Qualification Facility Commissioning Commenced’. Table 1 summarises the latest purification results, showing carbon grade and impurity concentrations for major elements from an unpurified SPG with an initial grade of 96.73% carbon. Table 1: Summary of key major elements.
*Carbon by loss on ignition (LOI) This notable reduction in impurities has been achieved through additional process improvements, also resulting in reduced capital and operating costs. These results will be incorporated within the independent engineering study on benchmarking the EcoGraf HFfree™ proprietary process against the known purification processes, which is expected to be completed shortly.
