Graphite crucible is a high-performance refractory material with excellent properties such as high refractoriness, high melting point, good thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and low coefficient of expansion. These characteristics enable graphite crucibles to cope with various complex environmental and process requirements in the metallurgical industry.
In the process of metal smelting and purification, graphite crucibles play a crucial role due to their high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. It can withstand extremely high temperatures, far exceeding ordinary refractory materials, ensuring the smooth progress of the smelting process. At the same time, graphite crucibles have strong chemical stability and can resist the erosion of various chemical substances, ensuring that the metal smelted has high purity and quality.
During the melting process, the efficient thermal conductivity of graphite crucibles enables rapid heat transfer to the metal raw materials, achieving rapid melting and improving production efficiency. At the same time, graphite crucibles can ensure that metal raw materials are uniformly heated during the melting process, avoiding quality problems caused by uneven temperature.
Graphite crucibles play a significant role in the smelting of precious metals such as gold, silver, platinum, and high melting point metals such as tungsten and rhenium. It can withstand high temperatures and corrosive substances, ensuring the purity of precious metals is not affected. At the same time, for metals with extremely high melting points, graphite crucibles can provide sufficient high-temperature environment to enable these metals to melt smoothly.
