High Conductivity Graphitized Petroleum Coke GPC
What the Graphitized petroleum coke Is
High Conductivity Graphitized Petroleum Coke GPC is manufactured by heat-treating selected petroleum coke at temperatures above 2,800°C to transform its carbon structure into a highly ordered graphite-like lattice. This process significantly enhances the material's conductivity, reduces volatile content, and produces a clean and stable carbon additive for industrial applications.
The resulting GPC has very low sulfur levels, minimal ash, and high fixed carbon content, making it highly effective for adjusting carbon content in molten steel and cast iron. Its excellent dissolution rate ensures quick integration into the melt, promoting improved carbon recovery and stable metallurgical reactions.
Because of its high electrical conductivity, High Conductivity GPC is also used in carbon-based products such as electrode materials, conducting paste, refractory mixes, and thermal management applications. The graphitized microstructure improves thermal conductivity, oxidation resistance, and overall mechanical stability in high-temperature environments.
Each production batch is screened for particle uniformity, sulfur content, carbon level, and impurity control to ensure consistent performance. The material is available in various particle sizes to meet the needs of steel plants, foundries, carbon product manufacturers, and energy-related industries.
