Graphite electrodes are advanced materials used in electric arc furnaces (EAFs) for steel production. They are made from high-grade petroleum coke and coal tar pitch, and are formed into cylindrical shapes. Graphite electrodes are used to conduct electricity and provide the necessary heat for melting steel scrap. They are also used in ladle furnaces, foundries, and other industrial applications. Graphite electrodes are highly resistant to thermal shock and oxidation, and have a long service life. They are also highly conductive and can withstand high temperatures. As a result, they are widely used in the steel industry and other industries. The graphite electrodes market is driven by the increasing demand for steel and other metals in the automotive, construction, and other industries. The growing demand for energy-efficient and cost-effective production processes is also driving the market. Some of the major companies in the graphite electrodes market include SGL Carbon, GrafTech International, Showa Denko K.K., HEG Limited, Tokai Carbon Co. Ltd., and UCAR Carbon Company.
