Inert Gas2015-11-05 14:51:50

An inert gas is a gas which does not undergo chemical reactions under a set of given conditions. The noble gases often do not react with many substances. Inert gases are used ...

Graphite Powder and Scrap2015-11-03 14:24:35

The powder is made by heating powdered petroleum coke above the temperature of graphitization, sometimes with minor modifications. The graphite scrap comes from pieces of unusable electrode ...

Nuclear Graphite2015-10-30 09:52:05

Nuclear graphite is any grade of graphite, usually electro-graphite, specifically manufactured for use as a moderator or reflector within a nuclear reactor. Gra...

Graphite2015-10-28 10:37:36

Graphite, archaically referred to as Plumbago, is a crystalline form of carbon, a semimetal, a native element mineral, and one of the allotropes of carbon. Graphite is the most sta...

Vacuum Furnace Common Uses 2015-10-22 12:03:15

A common use of a vacuum furnace is for the heat treatment of steel alloys. Many general heat treating applications involve the hardening and tempering of a steel part to make it strong and ...

Expanded Graphite2015-10-21 11:19:48

Expanded graphite is made by immersing natural flake graphite in a bath of chromic acid, then concentratedsulfuric acid, which forces the crystal lattice planes apart, thus expanding the graphite...

Graphite Electrodes 2015-10-20 10:15:26

Graphite electrodes carry the electricity that melts scrap iron and steel (and sometimes direct-reduced iron: DRI) in electric arc furnaces, which are the vast majority o...

Thermal Insulation Standards2015-10-16 14:20:18

ASTM's thermal insulation standards are instrumental in specifying and evaluating the materials and methods used to reduce the rate of heat transfer. The flow of heat can be delayed by understanding t...

Hard Pan based graphite felt cylinder2015-10-15 11:51:06

Hard Pan based graphite felt cylinder is formed by integrating graphite paper, carbon felt and carbon cloth, and then subjecting them to secondary high temperature purification treatment. It is mainly...
