(Artificial Graphite Powder)
Artificial graphite powder has been developed using the method of nanopore introduction. Its application is diverse and it is being used in many fields. However, it is mostly used for refractories, batteries, and fire protection.
Graphite is an allotrope of carbon and has a low specific gravity. The powdered form is soft and chemically inert to acids. Therefore, it is useful in crucibles and casting polishing. Graphite can be obtained in many standard granulations, ranging from 5 mesh USS to 0.7 microns.
Graphite is a conductive material. It can be used to create conductive coatings. Graphite is also used in refractories and in the nuclear piles. In addition, it can be used in the nozzle throats of solid rocket boosters.
Graphite is used in the manufacturing of high-temperature nuclear reactors, such as Very High Temperature Reactors (VHTR). Additionally, it is used in the construction of next-generation nuclear plants. Graphite has also been used in radar absorbent materials.
In the 1980s, the demand for graphite was boosted by the development of portable electronics, such as power tools and mobile phones. This increased demand led to a growth in the graphite market. Graphite is also used for various other applications, such as in conductive coatings, electrodes, and brake linings.
During the Russia-Ukraine War, the Artificial Graphite Powder market scenario changed. Graphite was used in Schornsteinfeger and Sumpf, which were used by the U-boat snorkels.
Compared to natural graphite, artificial graphite has a better performance. It has a good lubricating property. Another advantage is that it has a long cycling durability.
