2. Graphite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite

   The expanded graphite can be used to make graphite foil or used directly as a "hot top" compound to insulate molten metal in a ladle or red-hot steel ingots and decrease heat loss, or as firestops fitted around a fire door or in sheet metal collars surrounding plastic pipe (during a fire, the graphite expands and chars to resist fire ...

3. Annealed pyrolytic graphite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annealed_pyrolytic_graphite

   Annealed Pyrolytic Graphite (APG), also known as Thermally Annealed Pyrolytic Graphite (TPG), [1] is a form of synthetic graphite that offers excellent in-plane thermal conductivity. As with pyrolytic carbon or pyrolytic graphite (PG), APG is also low in mass, is electrically conductive , and offers diamagnetic properties that allow it to ...

4. Expandable graphite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Expandable_graphite

   To produce expandable graphite, natural graphite flakes are treated in a bath of acid and oxidizing agent.Usually used oxidizing agents are hydrogen peroxide, potassium permanganate or chromic acid. Concentrated sulphuric acid or nitric acid are usually used as the compound to be incorporated, with the reaction taking place at temperatures of ...

   American 2016: Flexible insulation from Owens Corning includes faced and unfaced rolls of glass wool and with foil. [91] 1960s values: All thermal conductivities from Cypress to Maple are given across the grain. [92] Hydrogen: 0.1819 [93] 290 Hydrogen gas at room temperature. Ice: 1.6 [23]-2.1 [6]-2.2 [64]-2.22 [94] The Historic Ice Authorities ...

6. Highly oriented pyrolytic graphite - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highly_Oriented_Pyrolytic...

   Highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) is a highly pure and ordered form of synthetic graphite. It is characterised by a low mosaic spread angle, meaning that the individual graphite crystallites are well aligned with each other. The best HOPG samples have mosaic spreads of less than 1 degree.

7. Graphitizing and non-graphitizing carbons - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphitizing_and_non...

   In this paper, she defined graphitizing carbons as those that can transform into crystalline graphite by being heated to 3,000 °C (3,270 K; 5,430 °F), while non-graphitizing carbons do not transform into graphite at any temperature. Precursors that produce graphitizing carbon include polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and petroleum coke.

8. Thermawing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermawing

   The ThermaWing ice protection system uses a flexible, electrically conductive, graphite foil attached to a wing's leading edge. Once activated the foil heats quickly, melting and then shedding any ice.

9. Induction heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_heating

   Component of Stirling radioisotope generator is heated by induction during testing. Induction heating is the process of heating electrically conductive materials, namely metals or semi-conductors, by electromagnetic induction, through heat transfer passing through an inductor that creates an electromagnetic field within the coil to heat up and possibly melt steel, copper, brass, graphite, gold ...
