    Share:


    In the development history of China's carbon material industry, the management scope is mainly divided according to the application direction and distribution system of carbon materials. There are roughly the following types of carbon material production enterprises:




    (1) A carbon material enterprise that produces graphite electrodes, graphite anodes, carbon blocks for metallurgical furnaces, and self baking electrodes primarily for the steel, metallurgical, and chemical industries. Its main products are graphite electrodes, graphite anodes, carbon blocks, and electrode paste for electric arc furnaces. The equipment and technology for producing graphite electrodes can also be used to produce high-strength, high-purity, and high-density graphite. These carbon materials have a wide range of applications in the nuclear industry, aerospace industry, and other industries.




    (2) Enterprises that produce carbon materials for power supply and aluminum electrolysis. The electrolytic aluminum industry is the largest user of carbon materials, with products such as lined carbon blocks for electrolytic cells, pre baked anodes or anode paste for conductivity.




    (3) Enterprises that produce carbon materials used in the electrical and mechanical industries. Its main products are electric brushes for motors, conductive sliders for electric locomotives, arc carbon rods, mechanical bearings and seals, etc. Its leading products are electric brushes and carbon wear-resistant parts.




    (4) Enterprises engaged in mining and processing natural graphite, diamond and other materials.




    (5) Enterprises that produce special carbon and graphite products. Its products include carbon fiber, pyrolysis carbon, glass carbon, graphite interlayer compounds (expanded graphite), etc. The raw materials, production equipment, and production process used are significantly different from conventional carbon and graphite products.

    What should be paid attention to when processing refractory materials with flake graphite?

    Flake graphite is widely used in high-grade refractory materials and coatings in the metallurgy industry. It is like fish phosphorus, belongs to hexagonal crystal system, and has a layered structure. Below, we will provide a detailed explanation of the key points to pay attention to when processing refractory materials with flake graphite.

    Several physical and chemical indicators that need to be understood when selecting graphite materials

    Graphite is an allotrope of elemental carbon, where each carbon atom is surrounded by three other carbon atoms (arranged in a honeycomb like pattern with multiple hexagons) that are covalently bonded to form covalent molecules. Due to its excellent properties, graphite is used to make many materials. Below are several physical and chemical indicators that need to be understood when selecting graphite materials:1. Average particle diameter of the materialThe average particle diameter of a material directly affects its discharge condition. The smaller the average particle size of the material, the more uniform the discharge of the material, the more stable the discharge condition, and the better the surface quality. For forging and die-casting molds with low surface and precision requirements, it is usually recommended to use materials with coarser particles; For electronic molds with high surface and precision requirements, it is recommended to use an average particle size of 4 μ Mater
