Application of graphite in electrodes
Overview of graphite Graphite is an important non-metallic mineral resource and an allotrope of carbon. The different crystal forms of graphite determine that it contains various industrial values and uses. In industry, graphite ore is divided into crystalline (flaky) graphite ore and cryptocrystalline (earth-like) graphite ore according to the different forms of graphite crystals. From a mineralogical point of view, generally speaking, graphite is crystalline graphite, and cryptocrystalline graphite also belongs to crystalline graphite. Cryptocrystalline graphite is crystalline graphite that can only be seen under an electron microscope. Therefore, different classification methods have different classification results. This article mainly adopts the industrial classification method, which is closer to the application and classification of graphite in industry. Crystalline graphite ore can be divided into scaly and dense. The scaly graphite ore crystallizes better, the crystal size
