The powder is obtained by grinding manually or mechanically, or as a result of the decomposition of coke.
The graphite powder has a gray-black color with a metallic sheen. Powder particles are in the form of flakes. It has a soft, layered structure. Well pressed and stamped.
Conducts well heat and electric current, has the properties of a magnetic.
It is a refractory low elastic material.
Pressed graphite powder is the basis for the production of rods for pencils, as well as graphite rods of large diameter for the needs of the atomic, electrical, instrument-making industries. Used in printing, automotive, electronics.
Due to its layered structure, it is a component of graphite grease. As a filler it is used in the foundry and metallurgical industry (powder metallurgy), in the production of power batteries.
