1) refractories: graphite crucibles made of graphite in the smelting industry, protective agents for steel ingots, and magnesium-carbon bricks in the furnace lining.
2) conductive materials: in the electrical industry, graphite is widely used as the coating for electrode, brush, electric rod, carbon tube and television picture tube.
3) wear-resistant materials and lubricants: in many mechanical equipment, using graphite as wear and lubrication materials, can be in 200 ~ 2000 ¡æ temperature range sliding at a speed of 100 m/s, no or little use of lubricating oil.
4) sealing material: piston ring gasket and sealing ring for centrifugal pump, water turbine, steam turbine and conveying corrosive medium with flexible graphite, etc.
5) corrosion-resistant materials: use graphite as a vessel, pipe and equipment, can withstand various corrosive gases and liquid corrosion, widely used in oil, chemical, wet metallurgy and other departments.
6) insulation, high temperature resistant, radiation protection material: graphite can be used as the nuclear reactor neutron moderator and nozzle of the rocket, missile nose cones, aerospace equipment parts, insulating material, radiation protection materials. |
