The position and role of carbon industry in the development of the national economy
Compared with large industries such as machinery, automobiles, electronics and electrical engineering, mining and metallurgy, railways, and transportation, the carbon industry is a small industry, but it occupies an important position and plays an important role in the development of the national economy in China. According to China's first five-year plan, 156 large-scale projects were newly built, of which the carbon industry accounted for two projects. For example, the development of the steel industry cannot be separated from carbon materials and products, especially electric furnaces for smelting alloy steel, which must have graphitized electrodes. Electrolytic aluminum production requires the consumption of 400-450kg of carbon anodes for each ton produced. In addition to ordinary civilian industries, carbon fiber composite materials have a wide range of applications in aviation, aerospace, nuclear energy, military and other fields, such as high specific strength, light weight, an
