Cost-effective graphite material | graphite powder

Graphite powder has good chemical stability. The specially processed graphite has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity and low permeability. Franli factory manufactures flake graphite. The higher the purity of the graphite powder, the better. Its role in the mold is mainly to play the role of lubrication, high temperature resistance, wear resistance, etc., and it is often used in casting mold to release agents. Casting is generally determined according to the surface requirements of the casting, and it can be divided into the following two types: ordinary casting and precision casting. Casting refers to smelting metal, making a mold, and then pouring the molten metal mixed with graphite powder into the mold. After solidification, a metal part blank with a certain size, shape and performance will be obtained.

The benefits of using graphite powder in molds

As we know, Lubrication is one of the dominant advantage in casting so that the finished product can extend the service life.

(1)Lubrication: Coat the graphite lubricating powder with uniform particle size and good lubricating effect on the surface of the mold. During metal smelting, it can play the role of a protective film, which is conducive to making the mold withstand high temperature and making the material lubricious. The wear coefficient is reduced, the wear rate is also reduced, and the finished metal parts are easier to demould.

(2) Wear: In addition, the graphite lubricating powder is also beneficial to the metal surface being clean and free from sand, which makes the mold more wear-resistant, which is beneficial to the service life of the mold.

Potential capabilities of graphite powder

Other features are also know to us, such as conductivity, heat resistance, anti-corrosion as well. let’s talk one by one.

(1) Conductivity: Conductive additives are used to produce various conductive products. Conductive graphite powder can be used to produce conductive coatings, electrodes, battery materials, etc. Conductive graphite powder is used in lithium batteries. Conductive graphite powder is used as negative electrode material. Graphite powder can provide a stable voltage for lithium batteries, reduce the internal resistance in the battery, and maximize the discharge time of the battery.

(2) Heat resistance: Graphite powder and its products have the properties of high temperature resistance and high strength. They are mainly used in the metallurgical industry to manufacture graphite crucibles. In steelmaking, graphite is often used as a protective agent for steel ingots and as the lining of metallurgical furnaces.

(3) Electrode: how can graphite powder replace copper as electrode.

(4) Graphite powder can be used as pencil lead, pigment and polishing agent. After special processing of graphite, various special materials can be made for relevant industrial sectors.

(5) Prevent boiler scaling and anti-corrosion: Franli factory researches that adding graphite powder to water (about 4~5 grams per ton of water) can prevent scaling on the boiler surface. And graphite powder coating on metal chimneys, roofs, bridges, pipes can prevent corrosion and rust.

Graphite powder can also be used in the following fields: chemical industry, lubrication, electrical conductivity and metallurgy. Graphite powder has good coating performance. We can coat graphite powder on the surface of solid to form a smooth film with firm adhesion.

Franli factory has advanced testing and testing equipment such as high-temperature combustion carbon furnace, light-transmitting particle size analyzer, laser particle size analyzer, electric heating constant temperature drying oven, box-type resistance furnace, etc., which can meet the testing and analysis requirements of our customers.
