Raw materials and manufacturing process of graphite electrodes

Graphite electrode is a kind of high temperature resistant graphite conductive material produced by a series of processes such as kneading, molding, roasting, impregnation, graphitization, and machining, using petroleum coke and needle coke as aggregate and coal tar as binder. Material.

Graphite electrode is an important high-temperature conductive material for electric furnace steelmaking. Electricity is input into the electric furnace through the graphite electrode, and the high temperature generated by the arc between the electrode end and the charge is used as a heat source to melt the charge for steelmaking. Some other submerged arc furnaces for smelting yellow phosphorus, industrial silicon, abrasives and other materials also use graphite electrodes as conductive materials. Using the excellent and special physical and chemical properties of graphite electrodes, it also has a wide range of uses in other industrial sectors.
