Because of its unique crystalline molecular structure,
Graphite
has special physical properties which make it a valuable material
has special physical properties which make it a valuable material
- Soft with excellent lubricity
- Light Weight for use in composites
- Thermally Stable in absence of oxygen good for making refractories, crucibles and electrodes
- Low Compressibility unlike metals, giving good physical stability
- Strength similar to metals, but graphene having extreme strength
- Low Thermal Expansion good for stable refractories and composites
- High Thermal and Electrical Conductivity in the a-b plane similar to metals, allowing a wide range of unique applications including batteries, heat sinks, brake linings, and electrically-conductive plastic composites
