Critical Technology Assessment: Fine Grain, High Density Graphite

Abstract

The Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) conducts critical technology assessments to examine the impact of export controls on key existing or emerging technologies that are subject to the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). For a given technology sector, BIS evaluates the scope and impact of current U.S. export controls, foreign export control practices, the sector's economic status, and the foreign availability of product substitutes. This assessment examines the effects of export controls on U.S. manufacturers and exporters of fine grain, high density graphite subject to the EAR for missile technology (MT) and anti-terrorism (AT) reasons under Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) 1C107.a on the Commerce Control List (CCL). The parameters of 1C107.a stem from controls established by the Missile Technology Control Regime (MTCR).
