Applications of Graphite & its Various properties
Flake Graphite, an allotrope of carbon, is a critical resource that is used in over 150 applications in diverse industries and consumer goods.
Flake graphite constitutes a unique set of properties, accredited to its molecular structure, making it an essential material for multiple applications:
A crystalline form of Carbon
A solid state lubricant
Once intercalated expands many-fold at onset temperature
Only non-metallic conductor
Sustains temperatures of >3000*c
Graphene is an atom layer of flake graphite
With over 150 different applications flake graphite is classified as a critical resource
We understand it is user-specific on standardisation and needs personalised customer service
We offer a stable Flake Graphite source with an ongoing partnership with our customers, backed by a competent team with decades of operations experience
Structure and Properties
Given these molecular characteristics, flake graphite is a material with a unique set of properties, making it the preferred and mostly non-replaceable choice in various industries, products and applications. Though it is non-metal, it has the unique properties of both metal and non-metal.
Being a novel material with this exclusive microstructure, flake graphite exhibits the following properties:
- A solid-state, high-temperature dry lubricant
- The only high-performance non-metallic conductor
- A reflector as a single particle
