The advantages of conductive graphite materials in the indus
Release time:2023-08-14 Visits:

Graphite is widely used in the electrical industry as electrodes, brushes, carbon rods, carbon tubes, positive electrodes for mercury rectifiers, graphite gaskets, telephone parts, coatings for television tubes, and so on. Among them, flake graphite electrodes are the most widely used. When smelting various alloy steels and iron alloys, graphite electrodes are used. At this time, a strong current is introduced into the melting zone of the electric furnace through the electrodes, generating an arc, converting electrical energy into heat energy, and raising the temperature to around, thereby achieving the purpose of smelting or reaction. In addition, when electrolyzing metal magnesium, aluminum, and sodium, graphite electrodes are also used as the anode of the electrolytic cell. The resistance furnace for producing corundum also uses graphite electrodes as conductive materials for the furnace head. The graphite used in the electrical industry has high requirements for particle size and grade. For example, alkaline batteries and some special electrocarbon products require graphite particle size control within the target range, grade above, and harmful impurities below. The particle size of graphite used in television picture tubes is required to be below. Graphite is often used as a lubricant in the mechanical industry as a wear-resistant and lubricating material. Lubricating oil often cannot be used under high-speed, high-temperature, and high-pressure conditions, while graphite wear-resistant materials can work without lubricating oil at temperatures and high sliding speeds. Many equipment transporting corrosive media widely use graphite materials to make piston rings, sealing rings, and bearings. When they operate, there is no need to add lubricating oil, and graphite emulsion is also a good lubricant for many metal processing.

Due to its unique structure, graphite has the following special properties:

1) High temperature resistant type: The melting point of graphite is 3850 ± 50 ℃, and the boiling point is 4250 ℃. Even if burned by an ultra-high temperature arc, the weight loss is very small, and the coefficient of thermal expansion is also very small. The strength of graphite increases with the increase of temperature, and at 2000 ° C, the strength of graphite doubles.

2) Conductivity and thermal conductivity: The conductivity of graphite is 100 times higher than that of ordinary non-metallic minerals, and its thermal conductivity exceeds that of metal materials such as steel, iron, and lead. The thermal conductivity decreases with increasing temperature, and even at extremely high temperatures, graphite becomes an insulator.

3) Lubricity: The lubrication performance of graphite depends on the size of the graphite sheet. The larger the sheet, the smaller the friction coefficient, and the better the lubrication performance.

4) Chemical stability: Graphite has good chemical stability at room temperature and is resistant to acid, alkali, and organic solvent corrosion.

5) Plasticity: Graphite has good toughness and can grow into very thin sheets.

The company's main product is a new type of negative electrode material for lithium batteries - carbon microspheres, which have a unique high stability structure. In addition to the high reversible capacity and good rate performance of traditional spherical carbon materials, they also have extremely excellent long-term cycling performance, especially suitable for use as negative electrode materials for lithium-ion power batteries, energy storage batteries, and consumer batteries.
