Introduction Of Graphite electrodes 

Artificial Graphite Electrode is an indispensable material used in the electric arc furnace steel making, for its excellent electrical conductivity and remarkable anti-thermal shock capability.

In general  carbon is produced by carbonizing mixed coke substances with binding pitch at 1000 Celsius in a baking furnace. When this carbon is graphitized in an electric furnace at 3000 Celsius, the amorphous carbon body takes on the structure of crystalline graphite. This is called graphite. Carbon materials are usually pitch impregnated and re-baked to enhance electrical and mechanical properties before graphitization.

 Graphite has the features of

 ♦ High temperature strength

 ♦ Good thermal and electrical conductivity

 ♦  Low thermal expansion

 ♦ Appropriate machinability

These features make Graphite Electrode the most suitable material to melt scraps,  DRI,  etc. by arc energy.
