Advantages for refractory applications

The graphite manufactured by Mersen offers numerous advantages which make it the material of choice for numerous refractory applications:

• It doesn't melt, but passes directly from a solid to a gas starting at 3,400 °C.
• Graphite's thermal shock resistance is unrivalled.
• Its mechanical strength remains unaltered at high temperatures.
• It has a low coefficient of thermal expansion, which guarantees geometric stability at high temperatures.
• It also has low density and heat capacity.
