Product Description

what is  spherical graphite: 

Spherical graphite is obtained from high-quality natural graphite through specific processes and processing. It has the characteristics of high purity, high crystallinity, high sphericity, uniform particle size, excellent conductivity, high charge and discharge capacity, long cycle life, and good safety performance. It is widely used in batteries, electronics, capacitors, semiconductors, aerospace, military, and other fields.

The production process of spherical graphite mainly includes mineral processing, purification, modification, molding, and other steps. Among them, beneficiation and purification are key steps to ensure the purity and quality of graphite, and modification is an important link to improve the oxidation resistance, high-temperature resistance, and chemical stability of graphite. During the modification process, the graphite surface is coated with a layer of organic matter, which can effectively improve graphite's oxidation and high-temperature resistance. At the same time, by controlling the modification process parameters, the thickness and density of the coating layer on the graphite surface can be adjusted, thereby controlling the chemical stability of graphite.

 

Spherical graphite has high conductivity and charge and discharge capacity, which can effectively improve battery energy density and cycle life. At the same time, it has high safety and will not produce harmful gases or burn, or other safety issues. Therefore, spherical graphite is an important part of the anode material for lithium-ion batteries and is also one of the important directions for future battery development.

Application of spherical graphite 


Batteries and energy storage: Spherical graphite has high electrical conductivity and chemical stability, making it an ideal material for batteries. It is widely used in manufacturing lithium-ion batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, supercapacitors, etc. In these batteries, spherical graphite is used as the negative electrode material, which can provide good conductivity and charge and discharge performance, thus improving the battery's energy density and cycle life.

Metallurgical field: Spherical Graphite has high-temperature resistance and chemical stability, so it is widely used in the metallurgical field. Spherical graphite is used in the metallurgical industry to manufacture high-purity crucibles, molds, electrodes, etc. These graphite products have good thermal conductivity and chemical stability at high temperatures, which can ensure the smooth progress of metal smelting and processing.

Semiconductor industry: Spherical graphite has excellent thermal conductivity and electrical properties, so it is widely used in semiconductors. It makes graphite heat sinks, reactors, films, etc. These graphite products can provide good thermal conductivity and electrical properties, ensuring thermal control and stable electrical properties during semiconductor manufacturing.

Aerospace field: Spherical graphite has excellent high-temperature resistance and lightweight characteristics, so it has broad application prospects in the aerospace field. It is used to manufacture aircraft engine parts, rocket tail nozzles, satellite structural parts, etc. In these applications, spherical graphite can provide good high-temperature resistance and lightweight effects, improving the performance and reliability of aerospace vehicles.

Automotive field: Spherical graphite is also widely used in the automotive industry, such as manufacturing auto parts, engine pistons, cylinder liners, etc. Because graphite has good lubricity and wear resistance, it can reduce friction and wear and improve engine efficiency and fuel economy.

Environmental protection field: Spherical graphite also has unique applications in the environmental protection field. It can manufacture high-efficiency filter materials, air purifiers, and other environmentally friendly equipment. Because graphite has good adsorption properties and can adsorb and remove harmful substances in the air, it has certain application potential in controlling environmental pollution.

Nuclear energy field: In the nuclear energy field, spherical graphite can be used to make moderators and reflective layers in nuclear reactors. Because graphite has high density and good neutron absorption capabilities, it can effectively control and slow down fast neutrons, thereby improving the efficiency and safety of nuclear reactors.

High-temperature material preparation: Spherical graphite is also extensively employed to prepare high-temperature materials. It can create high-performance materials like high-temperature alloys and silicon carbide ceramics. Since graphite has a very high melting point and the chemical properties are stable, it will keep the purity and stability of the material even at high temperatures and increase the material's efficiency and application capabilities.

Other fields: Besides the above application fields, spherical graphite is widely used to manufacture sealing materials, bearings, brake pads, pencil leads, etc. In these applications, spherical graphite's excellent performance and versatility are fully demonstrated.

 


Storage of spherical graphite

1) spherical graphite should be stored in a dry, ventilated place where there is no other sources of pollution (recommended: temperature ≤ 45 ° C, humidity ≤ 85%); 

2) spherical graphite should be neatly stacked, and the production batch number, date and other signs should be clearly identified; 

3) spherical graphite should be carefully Handled during transportation to avoid the damage of the packaging; products that leak out of the package must not be returned to the box.
