What uses is graphite? It’s used as a demolding lubricant for the production of chemical fertilizer industrial catalysts.
Graphite is a graphite powder that has high-temperature resistance and high lubricity. It can also be used as a high temperature resistant lubricant and corrosion resistant lubricant.
It can be used to release powder metallurgy, as a metal alloy raw material, or as a lubricant for cable production.
It’s used for making carbon film resistors, conductive dry modes and preparing conductive coats.
To make fillers and performance improvers of rubber, plastics, or any other type of composite material to improve wear resistance, pressure resistance, conductivity, or conductivity.
Natural graphite can be used to mark pencils, motor brushes, and other professional applications.
An innovative application for nuclear-grade graphite are the ultra-high temperature reactor (UHTR), as well as the next generation nuclear power plants (NGNP).

What is graphite?
Graphite is a form of graphite, but it’s only a powder. This retains all its primary and secondary characteristics.
Graphite, an allotrope for carbon, is called graphite. It is opaque solid and grayish-black. It can cause a paper to be greasy.
Its hardness is between 1-2 and 3-5 depending on the amount of impurities that are vertically oriented. The specific gravity ranges from 1.9 to2.3. The range of specific area is between 1-20m2/g. Under the condition of oxygen isolation, its melting point is above 3000, so it is one of the most temperature-resistant minerals. It is capable to conduct heat and electricity.
Chemical stability, corrosion resistance. It is not easy to react against acid, alkali, or other agents. Graphite reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide. Strong oxidants, such as potassium permanganate and concentrated nitric Acid, can oxidize graphite.
Natural graphite is not pure, so it often contains impurities, such as SiO2, Al2O3, FO, CaO and P2O5, or CuO. These impurities can often be found in the form quartz, pyrite or carbonate as well as other minerals. Water, asphalt, CO2, H2,CH4,N2 and other gases are also present. The analysis of graphite requires that, in addition to determining the fixed carbon content, volatile matter and Ash must be done simultaneously.

Is graphite dust toxic?
Exercising too much graphite can damage the respiratory system. There have been documented health effects such as pulmonary fibrosis or pneumoconiosis. This is an occupational lung disease. Workers’ lung function and cardiovascular system may also be affected.

What can you substitute for graphite powder in
Graphite powder can be used as a dry lubricant. However, it can corrosive to aluminum in the presence of moisture. Graphite can be substituted by molybdenum-dioxide MoS2 powder.
