SIGRAFINE® isostatic graphites

What is isostatic graphite?

Isostatic graphite is an ultra-fine grain graphite used for applications where the mechanical properties of other fine grain graphites are inadequate.

For more information, please visit Isostatic Press Graphite manufacturer.

The term "isostatic graphite" stands for isostatically molded graphite. This means that the raw material mixture is compressed into rectangular or round blocks in a so called Cold-Isostatic-Press (CIP).

Compared to other technologies such as extrusion or vibration molding, this technology can produce the most isotropic form of artificial graphite. In addition, isostatic graphite generally tends to have the smallest grain sizes of all artificial graphites.

Isostatic Graphite – Isotropic Graphite Material

Molding Technology

The principle of isostatic pressing technology is based on Pascal's law. It changes the unidirectional (or bidirectional) compression of the material into multi-directional (omnidirectional) compression. During the process, the carbon particles are always in a disordered state, and the volume density is relatively uniform with isotropic properties. Besides, it is not subject to the height of the product, thus making the isostatic graphite have no or little performance differences.

According to the temperature at which the forming and solidification take place, isostatic pressing technology can be divided into cold isostatic pressing, warm isostatic pressing, and hot isostatic pressing. Isostatic pressing products have a high density, typically 5% to 15% higher than those of unidirectional or bidirectional mold pressing products. The relative density of isostatic pressing products can reach 99.8% to 99.09%.
