Graphitized Petroleum Coke (GPC) is a premium carbon additive produced by high-temperature graphitization of petroleum coke. This process transforms the carbon structure into a more ordered crystalline form, significantly improving carbon purity, electrical conductivity, and absorption efficiency in molten metal applications.

GPC delivers concentrated carbon source for precise metallurgical control:

• Efficient carbon recovery rates
• Reduced carbon additive consumption
• Precise carbon adjustment capabilities
• Stable chemical composition maintenance

The graphitized carbon structure enables faster dissolution compared to ordinary carbon materials:

• Rapid carbon pickup in molten metal
• Enhanced melting efficiency
• Minimized carbon loss during processing

Controlled impurity levels support high-quality production requirements:

• Clean steel production applications
• High-quality cast iron manufacturing
• Special alloy casting operations

• Uniform particle size distribution
• Excellent handling characteristics
• Stable batch-to-batch quality

Primary applications in electric arc furnace (EAF), induction furnace, and special steel production for:

• Carbon steel manufacturing
• Alloy steel production
• High-quality steel processing

Essential for controlling metallurgical properties in:

• Gray cast iron production
• Ductile iron manufacturing
• Cast steel applications

• Ferroalloy production processes
• Specialized carbon adjustment operations
• Advanced metallurgical applications

Standard size ranges include:

• 0-1 mm
• 1-3 mm
• 1-5 mm
• 5-10 mm
• 10-30 mm

Optimal particle size selection depends on furnace type, charging methodology, and specific melting process requirements.

• 25 kg bags
• 500 kg jumbo bags
• 1000 kg jumbo bags

GPC serves primarily as a recarburizer in steelmaking, casting, and foundry applications to increase carbon content in molten metal with high efficiency and precision.

The graphitization process transforms the carbon structure, resulting in significantly higher carbon absorption efficiency and enhanced metallurgical performance compared to non-graphitized materials.

Standard GPC grades maintain 98.5% or higher fixed carbon content, with premium 99% FC grades available for specialized applications.

Yes, GPC is extensively used in gray iron, ductile iron, and cast steel production for precise carbon control and quality enhancement.

Low sulfur GPC grades achieve sulfur levels of ≤0.05% or ≤0.03% to meet stringent quality requirements.

Absolutely. Particle size can be precisely adjusted according to specific furnace types and customer production requirements.
