GPC Product Overview
GPC Material for Steel Industry is a high-purity, graphitized carbon additive specifically designed for use in steelmaking. With a high fixed carbon content of up to 99%, this material is ideal for carburizing, silicon recovery, and improving the overall quality of the molten steel.
Produced from high-quality petroleum coke, the material undergoes ultra-high-temperature graphitization to achieve superior electrical conductivity, reduced impurities, and enhanced thermal resistance. It is used to adjust carbon levels in the melt, boost productivity in electric arc furnaces (EAF), and improve the quality of steel.
This material is essential in producing high-quality steel, reducing slag, and lowering operational costs in metallurgical processes.
Key Advantages
- High fixed carbon content for consistent carburizing performance
- Low sulfur and ash content for cleaner steel production
- Ideal for electric arc furnaces (EAF) and induction furnaces
- Rapid dissolution for enhanced carbon recovery
- Supports high-temperature processes without degradation
- Reliable performance in both primary and secondary steelmaking
