1.The characteristics of flake graphite make it widely used in the field of demolding.
Under high temperature conditions, flake graphite has special oxidation resistance, self-lubricating properties, and plasticity, while also possessing good conductivity, thermal conductivity, and adhesion. In alkaline media, graphite particles are negatively charged and uniformly suspended and dispersed in the medium, with good high-temperature adhesion and lubricity, suitable for forging, mechanical manufacturing, and demolding industries.
The particle size of flake graphite is very fine, with a wide range of applications and specifications, including 1000 mesh, 2000 mesh, 5000 mesh, 8000 mesh, 10000 mesh, 15000 mesh, etc. It has good lubrication, conductivity, and corrosion resistance functions. The use of graphite lubricant can improve the service life of molds and reduce forging costs by 30%. It has been widely used in the automotive manufacturing industry, tractor manufacturing industry, engine industry, and gear forging industry, and has achieved good technical and economic results.
2.The demand for release agents makes them particularly reliant on flake graphite.
The production of flake graphite as a release agent requires consideration of two factors: one is the stability of the dispersion system; On the other hand, the forging process requires the lubrication performance of graphite to improve mold life, reduce deformation force and energy consumption, facilitate demolding, improve product quality, and increase labor productivity.
