Graphite Technologies Market - Explore The Opportunities

Graphite is a naturally existing crystalline form of carbon present in metamorphic rocks. It has a vast range of applications and is the raw material for many industries, including the lubricant industry, making pencils, as well as for use in batteries and electrodes. 

 

Graphite is also known to turn into diamonds under high pressure and temperature, the hardest substance known to man. Graphite is an insulator, which means that it does not conduct heat and electricity. 

 

Graphite is used in the lubricant industry for making brake linings and gear lubricants used in automobiles and industrial machinery. It is also used in making foundry facings of a mold by mixing water-based paint with amorphous graphite, which is finely powdered or flaked. Once it cools, it leaves a smooth graphite coat which allows easy separation between the object cast. 

 

Ever since the introduction of portable CD players, the use of graphite has seen a surge. In the last 3 decades, the use of graphite in the battery industry has increased significantly in laptops, smartphones, and tablets. Graphite is used to make the anode component of battery electrodes and is in great demand.

 

Metallurgy is the process of extracting a metal in its purest form. Graphite is used extensively in the metallurgy industry due to its ability to resist high temperatures and for the lubrication of machinery. Due to their high heat capacity and tensile strength, graphite is used for making boats to hold metals or alloys while they are being heated. 

 

Due to its ability to leave marks on paper, graphite has a natural ability to be used as a writing tool. This is why graphite plays such a significant role in the lead industry for making various types of pencils. The amorphous type of graphite is used more commonly in the pencil industry.

 

The use of graphite in the steel-making industry makes it an extremely useful material. It can be used to increase the carbon content in molten steel and as a component in the lubricant dye used for the extrusion of hot steel. Enormous quantities of carbon are required to increase carbon content in molten steel. 

 

Since graphite is an electrical conductor, it uses electrodes to transmit electricity while also passing heat away from critical components, making them essential components in the electrical industry. Graphite may also be considered as premium quality coal and is mined on a large scale in China, North Korea, Canada, Brazi, and India.
