Semco’s Graphite Treatment Services

Semco’s Graphite Treatment Services

Graphite is a versatile and tough material, but like other materials used in industry, it can degrade. Many treatments, including oxidation reduction reactions and PTFE coatings, can help protect the material from corrosion and degradation when it is exposed to extreme conditions, as it often is in manufacturing processes. (“But what is PTFE?” you ask. We’ll get to that.) In this post, we will examine and explain some of these treatment services for graphite material that Semco offers. You’ll have a better idea how best to protect your graphite components, whether it’s with oxidation reduction reactions, phenolic resin, or purification...

So, What is Graphite Anyway?

So, What is Graphite Anyway?

Sometimes it’s a good idea to get back to basics. Here at Semco, that means asking, what is carbon? What is graphite? And while we’re on the topic of the carbon atom, what are diamonds? Aren’t those made of carbon atoms too? And if so, how can carbon exhibit polymorphism? Ok, so maybe some of these are too basic (or too advanced. Polymorphism?). But we want our customers to ask these questions and know about the material they rely on for crucial components in their own products or manufacturing set-ups. So go ahead and ask us “what is carbon?” or...
