A Type of Graphite Products – Artificial Graphite Powder

Graphite Powder is an improved blackish-gray graphite material and has a greasy feeling. Basically. It can be separated into two different types: artificial graphite powder and natural graphite powder. In this article, we will focus on the production process and the usage of artificial graphite powder.

Synthetic graphite powder is produced through a complicated process of baking petroleum coke at very high temperatures. After large artificial graphite blocks have formed, they are crushed in the vibrating feeder and transferred into the mill with the right size. After the process of crushing, some small particles of synthetic graphite powder are sent to the silo and then grouped into the grinding chamber of the mill for grinding. With the powder selector, the fine powder is classified after grinding. On the contrary, the unqualified products are returned to the selector for repeating the grinding.

Synthetic graphite powder is often applied as a dry lubricant in the machinery industry. Liquid lubricant can not be utilized with high speed, high pressure and high-temperature conditions. That is the great circumstances where graphite power can come on stage and replaces the function of dry lubricant. Besides an alternative to dry lubricant, synthetic graphite powder is widely used as mould for glassware. Thanks to its features of high purity, small coefficient of thermal expansion and withstand rapid changes in cold and heat temperatures. What's more, in the production of refractory materials, adding some graphite powder can improve the melting point and the hardness of the strength of cast iron. With the development of technology, synthetic graphite powder will be applied in more industry fields.

Xinhui Carbon continues to promote the advancement of green technologies. To maintain the quality of our artificial graphite powder, we promised to build up green production lines that reduce waste conception and emissions. We are putting more effort into achieving the goal of sustainable development for our home.
