The manufacturing of electrode paste is an essential process in the aluminum and steel industries, where it is used to make electrodes. Quality of electrode paste depends on both the raw material and manufacturing process. Therefore, strict quality control is required in order to achieve the desired specifications.
Electrode paste can be produced from many different materials. Coal tar pitch is obtained from the distillation of coal and is used as a binder for the other ingredients in the paste. This paste has a very low melting temperature and high viscosity. It is used for holding the other components together. The other important component in electrode paste is petroleum coke. This is a product of refining crude oil. The coke is melted and dehydrated before it's mixed with other components to make electrode paste.
Aside from being a vital component in the aluminum and steel industries, electrode paste is also used in many other industrial applications. There are many types of Carbon available, so users can choose what type is best for them. The obturation paste, for example, is a type of special electrode paste that features high containment levels and can be used in sensitive processes.
To make sure the electrode paste is the best it can be, the product must go through several test procedures. This includes testing for electrical conductivity, thermal expansion, and oxidation resistance. The production process itself must also be controlled to ensure consistency and reliability.
For instance, when the electrode slurry is dried, the active material particles tend to cluster together instead of being distributed evenly throughout the slurry. This uneven distribution can cause a bad bond between the electrode agent and the electrode. This can be avoided by drying the electrodes slowly and in many stages.
EPM NovEP's electrode paste briquettes have been upgraded with a new screw-and piston press. The new line produces high quality, stable products of improved consistency. The redesigned line is anticipated to increase production volume and improve the market position of the company. A modern, up-to-date control system ensures that parameters in production are managed accurately and efficiently. It will ensure the highest industry standards are met by the products. The company can now confidently provide electrodes of high quality to customers around the world. Innovating and achieving excellence is the hallmark of this company. In addition to increasing the quality and durability of its products, this new line also boasts a reduction in operating costs as well as energy consumption.
