Application of Iron Oxide in the Production of Graphite Electrodes

In the production of carbon products in a certain period of time, Shengli coke with high sulfur content is used as raw material in a considerable proportion. These cokes have the characteristics of high volatile content, high sulfur content, and difficult graphitization. It is difficult to control the production process, so the product is prone … Read more

On the Deformation of Graphite Electrodes

The reliability of graphitized electrodes in electric arc steelmaking furnaces, in many cases, depends on their ability to resist thermal stress. The final effect of thermal stress depends on the size and nature of graphite deformation. Regarding the deformation properties of graphite electrodes, the research is insufficient. Because people have focused their attention on the … Read more

Resistivity Index of High-Power Graphite Electrode

Several major physical and chemical indicators are controlled within a certain range. It is not that the higher a certain indicator is, the better. In a certain sense, stability is more important than improvement. China’s rp graphite electrode industry-standard stipulates that the resistivity standard of 400~500mm in diameter is no more than 9 Ω·m for … Read more

Processing Equipment for Graphite Products Graphite electrode processing is divided into two independent processing parts, the electrode body and the joint. Electrode … Read more

Abnormal Consumption of Graphite Electrodes in Electric Furnace for Production of Phosphorus

In the production of yellow phosphorus produced by the electric furnace method, the consumption of graphite electrodes includes two parts: the normal consumption used to generate electric arc to supply electric energy to melt the charge and participate in the main reaction of reducing phosphorus and iron, and abnormal consumption caused by electrode breakage or … Read more

The Production Characteristics of Graphite Electrodes

The main raw material for graphite electrode production is petroleum coke. Ordinary power graphite electrodes can be added with a small amount of pitch coke, and the sulfur content of petroleum coke and pitch coke cannot exceed 0.5%. Needle coke is also needed when producing high-power or ultra-high-power graphite electrodes. The following lists the production … Read more

Graphite Electrodes for Electric Arc Furnace

Graphite Electrodes for Electric Arc Furnace are conductor material that the electric arc furnace releases electric energy in the form of an electric arc to heat and melt the charge. Due to the extremely harsh working environment, compared with other conductive materials, graphite electrodes have some excellent or irreplaceable characteristics under high-temperature conditions. For example, … Read more
