Graphite emulsion's main ingredient is graphite (micro-powdered graphite). Because of its emulsion-like state, it's often called graphite emulsion. Strictly speaking, this product should be called graphite colloid, which is divided into solvent-based graphite emulsion and water-based graphite emulsion. Graphite emulsion particles have the following characteristics: When dispersed, they settle very slowly, maintaining a uniform dispersion, and the physical properties of the liquid are stable.
When dried, each particle easily adheres to the coated surface, resulting in strong adhesion. Because graphite is flaky, its extremely fine particles remain parallel and fill the coated surface layer by layer, resulting in a smooth coating surface, strong cohesion, and excellent conductivity and lubricity.
Drawing graphite emulsion offers excellent high-temperature lubricity and adhesion, protecting molds, reducing wear, and extending mold life. Drawing graphite emulsion offers excellent high-temperature coating properties. It resists shedding and burning at temperatures between 600°C and 1200°C, protecting the wire from oxidation and preserving it for easy storage. It is alsan o antioxidant and non-toxic.
Drawing graphite emulsion is primarily used as an essential high-temperature lubricant in the drawing process of refractory metals such as tungsten, molybdenum, rhenium, and thorium, as well as their alloys. It can also be used as a coating agent for metal and glass castings and as a contact resistor material in the electronics industry.
