Graphite Electrodes Market Analysis :
Graphite electrodes are the main heating elements used in an electric furnace. It is a steel making process where scrap from old cars or appliances is melted to produce new steel. Graphite electrodes are used in electrolysis due to the graphite structure, which has huge number of electrons attached, allowing smooth flow of electricity to pass through the graphite quickly. These electrodes have the highest electrical & thermal resistance, thermal resistance, and ultra-high bending resistance. Some properties of electrodes include high temperature, low electrical conductivity, thermal resistance, low reactions to chemicals, and others. These electrodes provide high energy exchangers to melt scrap from cars and other appliances. High-quality graphite is an important requirement of almost every industry. Therefore, graphite electrodes are used in steel refining and smelting processes. Major application is in production of steel or other non-ferrous metals. Rising demand for graphite electrodes is due to rise in number of applications in end-user industries such as agriculture, manufacturing, mining, trade, construction, and others.
