VOLT CARBON RECEIVES THIRD U.S. PATENT ALLOWANCE STRENGTHENING DRY SEPARATION PLATFORM FOR GRAPHITE PROCESSING

Volt Carbon Technologies Inc. has received a notice of allowance from the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office for U.S. patent application No. 18/823845. This represents the third patent allowance arising from the company's original filing, establishing a growing patent portfolio that protects Volt Carbon's proprietary dry separation technology and its application across graphite processing and advanced carbon materials. With this milestone, the company continues to establish a defensible foundation for its dry separation platform as it advances toward commercial deployment.

Volt Carbon's dry separation process preserves the crystalline structure of graphite at the source. This is a critical distinction as conventional wet processing can damage the crystalline structure, lowering yield and increasing downstream processing requirements. By maintaining crystallinity, Volt Carbon's process enables more efficient conversion into battery materials, expandable graphite and graphene while supporting reduced processing intensity and environmental impact. The water-free and chemical-free nature of the process also reduces material-handling and processing time within the facility, supporting improved throughput and operational efficiency. This advantage sits at the core of Volt Carbon's strategy of improving graphite economics and positioning the company to participate across multiple high-value carbon markets.

The continued expansion of the company's U.S. patent portfolio strengthens its position as it advances toward commercial deployment of its dry separation platform, including the development of a scalable demonstration facility designed to validate the technology under commercial conditions. The patent is expected to issue following completion of customary administrative procedures and payment of final fees.

V-Bond Lee, chief executive officer, stated: "This third patent allowance strengthens our ability to scale a platform that preserves material value at the source and supports multiple downstream pathways, including high-value applications such as expandable graphite and graphene. Our objective is straightforward: demonstrate, commercialize and move toward cash flow generation."

Mr. Lee is the named first inventor on all of the company's air classifier patent filings and has over 38 years of product development and engineering management experience, with multiple inventions implemented in commercial applications, including granted patents across automotive and aerospace.
