Graphite
Pure Carbon. Industrial Strength
Didwaniya Group supplies premium-grade graphite sourced from trusted mines and processed to meet stringent industrial standards. Our graphite offers excellent conductivity, thermal stability, and consistent particle size — ideal for metallurgical, battery, refractories, and lubricant applications worldwide.
Graphite is a naturally occurring form of crystalline carbon characterized by a layered, hexagonal structure that gives it exceptional lubricity, electrical and thermal conductivity, and chemical stability. It is available in different grades — flake, amorphous, and vein — each suited to specific industrial uses. Graphite’s high carbon content and heat resistance make it a critical raw material across heavy industry and advanced manufacturing.
India and neighboring regions host commercially important graphite deposits, and Didwaniya Group partners with reliable producers and processors to ensure traceable, contamination-free material. Our supply chain emphasizes consistent particle sizing, controlled purification, and packaging that preserves material quality from mine to customer.
Characteristics
Appearance (Structure): Dark grey to black, crystalline flaky or amorphous particles depending on grade; flaky grades show layered platelets.
Carbon Content (Fixed Carbon): Typical range depends on grade — commonly 85%–99% (commercially specified per grade).
Purity (Total Ash/Impurities): Varies by grade and purification — low-ash grades are available for high-purity applications.
Particle Size / Mesh: Supplied in a range of particle size distributions (fine powders to coarse flakes) per customer specification.
Electrical Conductivity: Excellent for flake and synthetic graphite; specified in product datasheets.
Thermal Conductivity: High, especially in crystalline (flake/graphitized) grades.
Hardness (Mohs): Soft (usually ~1–2) due to layered structure; hardness varies with form and compaction.
Specific Gravity: Typically ~1.8–2.3 depending on grade and porosity.
Moisture Content, %: Typically low; specified on datasheet (kept minimal to prevent handling/processing issues).
Volatile Matter / Fixed Impurities: Varies by source and processing; available in purified grades for sensitive applications.
Application
Graphite is used across a broad range of industries: as electrodes in electric arc furnaces and steelmaking; as a key component in lithium-ion battery anodes and other energy storage technologies; in refractory linings for high-temperature furnaces; as a dry lubricant and anti-friction additive in industrial systems; and for manufacturing brushes, seals, crucibles, and brake linings. Its thermal and electrical conductivity also make graphite valuable in thermal management, EMI shielding, and as a precursor for advanced materials such as graphene.
Storage Condition
Store graphite in a dry, clean, well-ventilated warehouse away from strong oxidizers and corrosive chemicals. Keep packaging sealed or covered to prevent contamination and moisture uptake. Recommended storage environment: relative humidity below ~65% and ambient temperatures below ~25°C; stack pallets off the floor and protect from water and dust.
