Carbon Electrode Pastes is made up of a variety of different ingredients that create an electrochemical conductor employed for submerged arc furnaces, to transfer electrical current between the electrode as well as the melting metal charge. A variety of additives are added to the paste in order to enhance specific properties like mechanical and thermal stability and conductivity. The paste is made of a mixture of the calcined Petroleum Coke (CPC) and coke tar pitch, and various other ingredients.
CPC or ECA purchased from foreign suppliers is separated into various parts and stored in various hoppers. Pre-determined proportions of these fractions are weighted and mixed with a suitable quantity of liquid coal tar pitch in the Sigma mixer of the type. The mix is heated to 1800C to ensure there is a guarantee that the coal pitch dissolves completely in calcined petroleum coke or ECA. The sigma is continuously stirred during this phase to the specified duration of duration. With the help of adjusting the coal tar pitch, the carbon paste's elasticity is managed.
The paste is then prepared, and then packaged into blocks to be shipped to the buyer. The paste is usually packaged in corrugated boxes to prevent damage during shipping.
It can be utilized to bake a block that is carbon conductive. The paste is put over an electrode inside a submerged-arc furnace. When the mixture moves through the electrode, the temperature is raised. The conductivity of electrical energy in the electrode as well as its mechanical strength increase during the baking process.
Soderberg paste was named after Swedish engineer Carl Soderberg and it's a crucial component of the industry. The carbon electrode paste is used for electric arc furnaces. The purpose of the paste is to transfer electric current between the electrode and molten metal, helping the process run efficiently. Also, it has exceptional thermo-stability, which allows it to stand up to the extremely high temperatures that are found in an electric an arc oven.
The different types of carbon electrode paste can also be used for different processes, including steelmaking or for the manufacture of calcium carbonate. The chemical and electrical resistance of these types of carbon electrodes make them ideal for use in a variety of processes.
All carbon electrode pastes regardless of the application need to be consistent and of high-quality in order to work effectively. It is essential to make sure that the paste has been thoroughly mixed and has the proper viscosity and a low amount of Ash. An excellent carbon electrode paste will reduce the chance of an issue with the furnace, which could lead to expensive maintenance or repairs.
