    #CNT is used not only in secondary batteries but also in automobiles, aircraft, and semiconductors. LG Chem is expanding its CNT production capacity to gain a competitive edge in the rapidly growing global CNT market, with a particular focus on battery materials.   Once LG Chem's CNT Plant 4 is completed in 2025, the production capacity of CNT will increase from the current 2,900 tons to 6,100 tons. Using independently developed fluidized bed reactors, LG Chem's CNT plants can mass-produce up to 600 tons per production line annually, the largest scale in the world for a single line.   Learn more about CNT on our blog. 👉https://lnkd.in/dhsye7Wz   #LGChem #WeConnectScience
