Fine Grain Graphite

Fine grain graphite is graphite produced with a small particle size. This graphite has a fine grain structure, and therefore, it has particular properties as well. Fine grain graphite is ideal for industrial applications as it possesses high strength and hardness property, excellent conductivity, chemical inertness and stability. You’ll find it commonly popping up within metal casting, semiconductor fabrication, and so forth. Due to the properties and structure, it suits many different uses.

Why Choose Fine Grain Graphite?

High Strength

Fine grain graphite has great power. Compared to other graphite types it is stronger. What this means is it can endure rugged conditions. It has a structure that allows it to keep its shape when pressured. Fine grain graphite is very hard and durable.

Heat Resistance

Fine grain graphite is an excellent high temperature material. It can also work in extreme environments, such as high temperature and high pressure industrial scenarios.

Electrical Conductivity

This is fine grain graphite, which have positive impact for electrical conductivity. It is ideal when you require a conductor. Thats the reason it is often used in EDM (Electrical Discharge Machining) and heaters. The fine grain graphite has a structure that enables the continuous flow of electric current, hence it is considered to be a reliable material.

Features

Heat Resistance

Graphite of fine grain is available for high-temperature applications. This is why it retains its stability when other materials soften or lose shape.

Electrical Conductivity

Graphite is an extremely natural conductor. Semiconductors use fine grain graphite because of its electrical conductivity, in photovoltaics too. It guarantees an efficiency in these high-end applications.

Machinability

The graphite is easy to machine, and you can easily shape it .That is ideal for complex forms like forge molds, continuous casting equipment Because of the hardness and structure of the graphite, machining will be performed precisely.

Chemical Stability

This graphite resists destructive loss during chemical attack. It remains intact even under stressful conditions. If you rely on stability in chemically aggressive conditions, it is a machine that can be trusted. Its quality properties contribute to chemical stability.

Lubrication

Also, fine grain graphite makes for a decent lubricant. It is applicable in an area where lubrication is required during extremely high temperatures. This characteristic is useful for relocating components that are subject to exposure from the heat.

Applications:

Photovoltaic

It is used in the photovoltaic industry. It is a part of the manufacturing process in making solar panels. Graphite becomes an ideal element to utilize based on its electrical properties.

Metal Industry

This kind of graphite are used in various processes by the metal industry. Continuous casting and forge molds are included in the scope of this work. What’s critical here is its heat resistance, hardness, and structure.

Vacuum Furnace

Fine grain graphite in a vacuum furnace. This is because of its heat resistance, hardness and chemical stability which allows the material to withstand the extreme conditions inside a furnace.

Continuous Casting

Fine particle graphite is used to form metals for processes such as continuous casting. It has all the necessary strength and heat resistance for handling molten metal. The arrangement and hardness of the graphite plays an important role in this process.

Forge Moulds EDM

Graphite with a fine grain is often used in EDM. Due to its electrical conductivity, machinability and hardness it works as an electrode.

Heat exchanger

Graphite can be used in heat exchangers in the chemical industry. Graphite heat exchanger is a kind of heat exchange equipment made of graphite substrate, with excellent corrosion resistance, high temperature resistance and high thermal conductivity, so it has a wide range of applications in chemical, petrochemical, chlor-alkali chemical industry and other fields.

It is mainly used to deal with the heat exchange of corrosive media such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid and phosphoric acid. Besides, it can be used as a condenser for acetic acid and acetic anhydride, etc. It is widely used in chlor-alkali chemical industry, petrochemical industry, fluoride salt, titanium dioxide, zirconium industry, chloroacetic acid, chlorinated paraffin, monocrystalline silicon fluorine chemical industry and other production industries.

High-Density Fine Grain Graphite

This high-density graphite material has a particle size of less than 20 microns. It provides enhanced strength and hardness. This is the best option if you want toughness and pressure resistant.

Low-Density 

It is lighter and easier to machine. It is effective where you do not require enhanced strength. So it can be used for lighter duty applications that require heat resistance.

Isostatic Graphite

Isostatic graphite is the kind of fine grain graphite. It is made through the process of isostatic pressing. This provides it quite homogenous characteristics. Isostatic graphite can be found in precision applications such as semiconductors. It is almost uncompromisingly uniform in its structure, and this property is what makes it suitable for high-efficiency, reproducible results.

Vibration Molded Graphite

Another variety of fine grain graphite is vibration molded graphite. It is produced by vibration molding. Vibration filling is the procedure to make it hotter and uniform. Works when you need strength but not the uniformity of isostatic graphite. Vibration molded graphite has a hardness and structure that lend themselves to general industrial applications.
