Graphite Raw Materials
Graphite is crystal of carbon and non-metallic material with the natures of silver gray, soft in texture and metallic luster. Mohs hardness is 1~2, specific gravity is 2.2~2.3, and its bulk density is generally 1.5~1.8.
Characteristics of Graphite
The thermal and electrical conductivity of graphite is quite high, its electrical conductivity is 4 times higher than that of stainless steel, 2 times higher than that of carbon steel, and 100 times higher than that of general non-metals. Its thermal conductivity not only exceeds that of steel, iron, lead and other metal materials, but also decreases with the increase of temperature, which is different from general metal materials. At extremely high temperatures, graphite even tends to be adiabatic. Therefore, the thermal insulation performance of graphite is very reliable under ultra-high temperature conditions.
Graphite features excellent lubrication and plasticity. The friction coefficient of graphite is less than 0.1. Graphite can be extended into poromeric and transparent thin flakes. High-strength graphite is so hard that it is difficult to process with diamond tools.
Graphite is chemically stable, resistant to acids, alkalis, and organic solvents. Due to the above unique excellent properties, graphite is increasingly widely used in modern industry.
Applications of graphite
1. Refractory materials: Graphite and its products have the properties of high temperature resistance and high strength. In the metallurgical industry, they are mainly used to make graphite crucibles. Graphite is commonly used as a protective agent for steel ingots and as a lining for metallurgical furnaces in the metallurgical industry.
2. Conductive materials: In the electrical industry, graphite is used to manufacture electrodes, brushes, carbon rods, carbon tubes, positive electrodes of mercury rectifier, graphite gaskets, telephone parts, coatings for TV picture tubes, etc.
3. Wear-resistant lubricating materials: Graphite is often used as a lubricant in the machinery industry. General lubricating oil often cannot be used under high-speed, high-temperature, and high-pressure conditions, while graphite wear-resistant materials can work at high sliding speeds at temperatures of 200 to 2000 ℃ without lubricating oil. Much equipment for transporting corrosive media widely use graphite materials to make piston cups, seals and bearings, which do not need to be lubricated during operation. Colloidal graphite is also a good lubricant for many metals processing (wire drawing, tube drawing).
4. Heat exchange material: Graphite features good chemical stability. Specially treated graphite features the excellent characteristics of corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity, and low permeability. It is widely used in the production of heat exchangers, reaction tanks, condensers, combustion towers, absorption towers, coolers, heaters, and filters. , pump equipment. It is widely used in petrochemical industry, hydrometallurgy, acid and alkali production, synthetic fiber, papermaking and other industrial sectors, and can save a lot of metal materials.
5. Casting, sand turning, stamping and high-temperature metallurgical materials: Due to the minor coefficient of thermal expansion and the ability to withstand changes in quenching and heat, graphite can be used as a casting mold for glassware. With graphite casting molds, ferrous metal castings are accurate in size, have a smooth surface and a high yield, resulting in significant reduction of metal consumption.
6. Prevent boiler fouling. Tests have shown that adding a certain amount of graphite powder to water (approximately 4 to 5 grams per ton of water) can prevent scaling on the surface of the boiler. In addition, graphite coating on metal chimneys, roofs, bridges, and pipes can prevent corrosion and rust.
7. Graphite can be used as pencil lead, pigment, and polishing agent. After special processing, graphite can be made into various special materials. Such as impermeable graphite, directional high-density graphite, graphite fiber cloth, etc.
The melting point of graphite is extremely high. It begins to melt at 3000°C in vacuum and evaporates at 3600°C. The strength of general materials gradually decreases at high temperatures. However, when graphite is heated to 2000°C, its strength is doubled compared with normal temperature, but the oxidation resistance of graphite gradually increases as the temperature increases.

Amorphous graphite, also known as aphanitic graphite, microcrystalline graphite, or cryptocrystalline graphite, is highly regarded in both domestic and foreign graphite markets. It is often referred to as "gold sand." This type of graphite has a high fixed carbon content, minimal harmful impurities, and very low sulfur and iron content. Its quality places it in the category of high-quality microcrystalline graphite.
Most amorphous graphite samples consist primarily of graphite carbon. They exhibit a rigid ash color, metallic luster, and soft texture. With a Mohs hardness rating of 1-2 and a specific gravity ranging from 2 to 2.24, amorphous graphite is chemically stable and unaffected by strong acids and alkalis. Notably, it contains low levels of iron, sulfur, phosphorus, nitrogen, molybdenum, and hydrogen.
Based on its output form, amorphous graphite can be classified into two types: dispersed amorphous graphite ore and dense massive amorphous graphite ore. These distinctions are essential for understanding its various applications and properties.
There are various raw materials for carbon raisers, each with different production processes, including wood carbon, coal carbon, coke, graphite, etc., among which there are many small types under various carbon raiser. High-quality carbon raiser generally refer to carbon raiser that have been graphitized. Graphitization can reduce the content of impurities in the carbon raiser, increase the carbon content of the carbon raiser, and reduce the sulfur content.
Carbon raiser are used during casting, which can greatly increase the amount of scrap steel and reduce the amount of pig iron or eliminate the need for pig iron. In the feeding method of electric furnace smelting, the carbon raiser should be put in together with the scrap steel and other charge. Small doses can be added on the surface of the molten iron. However, it is necessary to avoid feeding large quantities of materials into molten iron to prevent excessive oxidation, resulting in insignificant carburizing effect and insufficient carbon content in castings. The amount of carburizing agent added is determined according to the ratio and carbon content of other raw materials.
