Impervious Graphite Grades in Process Equipment
Most graphite applications are designed with a particular graphite grade in mind. Impervious graphite grades, where the original material is altered to eliminate porosity, are especially in demand for some common graphite applications. Graphite process equipment, especially heat exchangers, are increasingly being used in chemical processing, as well as pharmaceutical and other process applications requiring high corrosion resistance. Graphite Applications in Heat Exchangers Any graphite grade has great thermal conductivity that makes it suitable for the construction of heat exchangers and other process equipment. These systems transfer heat between a substance and a fluid, many of which are corrosive. Not...
