    The basic process of carbon material production includes: pre-treatment (pre crushing, calcination, or drying) of carbon raw materials, crushing, grinding, and screening grading of carbon raw materials, proportioning of carbon raw materials, addition of molten dehydrated binder and kneading, forming of paste after kneading, and roasting of formed green billets. In order to improve the density and strength of products, high-pressure impregnation and secondary roasting cycle densification treatment are carried out on the roasted billets, The graphitization of roasted products involves mechanical processing of carbon and graphite products.




    Why are the quality indicators of high-power and ultra-high-power graphite electrodes superior to ordinary power graphite electrodes?




    The current density of graphite electrodes used in high-power and ultra-high-power electric furnaces significantly increases, resulting in the following problems: (1) due to resistance heat and hot airflow, the temperature of the electrodes increases, resulting in an increase in the thermal expansion of the electrodes and joints, and an increase in the oxidation consumption of the electrodes; (2) The temperature difference between the center of the electrode and the outer circle of the electrode increases, and the thermal stress caused by the temperature difference also increases accordingly. The electrode is prone to cracking and surface peeling; (3) After the power of the electric furnace is increased, the electromagnetic force increases, causing severe vibration and increasing the probability of electrode breakage.




    Therefore, the physical and chemical properties of high-power and ultra-high-power graphite electrodes must be superior to ordinary power graphite electrodes, such as low resistivity, high density, high mechanical strength, low linear expansion coefficient, excellent oxidation resistance and thermal shock resistance, in order to adapt to the use requirements of high-power and ultra-high power electric furnaces.
