POSCO Future M employees applaud at the company's cathode materials plant in Gwangyang, South Jeolla Province, July 26, celebrating the first shipment to the United States of cathode materials manufactured out of Korean-made precursors. The battery materials firm said Friday that it has used precursors produced at its Gwangyang plant to make cathode materials being sent to Ultium Cells, so that the joint venture between LG Energy Solution and General Motors can cope with tightening U.S. regulations on batteries containing Chinese materials.
