We all know that graphite has excellent chemical stability. After special processing, graphite also has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, and low permeability. Therefore, it is widely used as heat exchangers, reaction tanks, condensers, combustion towers, absorption towers, coolers, heaters, filters, and pump equipment.
High purity graphite has the advantages of high strength, good thermal shock resistance, high temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, low resistance coefficient, corrosion resistance, and easy precision machining, making it an ideal inorganic non-metallic material. Natural flake graphite powder flakes have complete crystallization, thin and tough flakes, stable physical and chemical properties, good conductivity, temperature resistance, lubrication, conductivity, thermal shock resistance, corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, etc.
At present, there is a high demand for mid to high end molds in the domestic market. According to predictions, the overall trend of the graphite product market will remain stable and upward during the 12th Five Year Plan period. However, it is required that domestically produced products must meet the needs of users in terms of quality, delivery time, and other aspects.
It is expected that in the next decade, as long as the entire market is sufficient to support and mining and expansion are successful, the production capacity of graphite powder will continue to grow. The newly added graphite production capacity will compensate for the loss of 100000 tons of flake graphite production capacity caused by mining accidents due to engineering errors. According to industry insiders, global graphite product research and development will be carried out in ten major fields. Meanwhile, in recent years, China's production has accounted for 40% to 50% of the world's total graphite production, as designated by the former National Building Materials Administration as the world's largest producer of graphite. India, the world's second largest producer, has accounted for about 15% of graphite production in the past decade. Other producing countries include Brazil (7%), Mexico (6%), and North Korea (6%). The total graphite production of the five countries mentioned above accounts for over 75% of the world's total production.
