When powder is sealed in a rubber bag which has little transformation resistance and liquid pressure is applied, all of the powder surfaces receive the same compressive force equal\u00a0to the liquid pressure so that the powder is compressed and molded isotropically.<\/p>\n<p>There are three types\u00a0of graphite designated by the production method: Isotropic, Extruded and Moulded.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text]Graphite has unique properties that\u00a0means it can be used in a variety of different applications, namely[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/New-Compairson-of-SR-TC.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Good electrical conductivity and high thermal conductivity<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/New-CTE-Comparison.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Low thermal expansion, resulting in high thermal shock resistance<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/New-Strength-vs-Temperature.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Strength at high temperatures<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/New-Chemical-Inertness.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chemical inertness and non-wetting to glass and most metals<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/New-Self-lubricity.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Self lubricity<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/New-Ease-of-machining.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Easy to machine to even into complex shapes<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;1091&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; onclick=&#8221;link_image&#8221;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=&#8221;5944&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221; alignment=&#8221;center&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;What is Graphite?&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In general, carbon is produced by carbonizing mixed coke substances with pitch binders in a baking furnace.
