Properties and Uses of Graphite
Introducing the five excellent properties of graphite, starting with "lubricity," and their applications!
Ito Graphite Industry Co., Ltd. has been pursuing new possibilities of graphite for over 70 years as a manufacturer of graphite powder. Graphite has five excellent properties: "lubricity," "electrical conductivity," "thermal conductivity," "heat resistance," and "chemical resistance," and is used in various applications such as pencil leads and sealants. 【Five Excellent Properties of Graphite】 <Lubricity> - Used as a lubricant or release agent, especially in high-temperature and high-load environments. - The layers of flaky graphite are easily peeled off, due to their complete cleavage in the horizontal direction. <Electrical Conductivity> - Less prone to oxidation compared to copper and more affordable than silver and gold, making it widely used. <Thermal Conductivity> - Exhibits excellent thermal conductivity because the mechanism of heat transfer is similar to that of electricity. <Heat Resistance> - Oxidation begins at about 500°C in an oxidizing atmosphere, but remains stable up to 3500°C in a reducing atmosphere. <Chemical Resistance> - Stable against both acids and alkalis. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
