UHP Graphite Electrode for Steel Making
Graphite electrode steel making is to input electric energy in to the arc steelmaking furnace through graphite electrode , and the arc occurring between the electrode end and the charge is used as the heat source for steelmaking . electric arcs generated between electrodes end and loaded materials can release large amount of heat for high temperature smelting.

Features of UHP Graphite Electrode
►Very high electricity load capacity, current intensity is usually above 25A/cm2.
►Bulk density is strictly controlled to have the best thermal shock resistance.
►Low specific resistance, excellent electrical conductivity, so the energy loss is very small and no electric arc generates at body part.
►Good high temperature mechanical strength, is not easy to rupture during working.
►No contamination to the processed steel, only CO or CO2 gas are produced during oxidization.
►Very low thermal expansion coefficient.
►Long production cycle and complex processing craft.
