Graphite sheets and yarns are highly useful materials known for their durability and flexibility. They come in various forms, such as reinforced composite sheets, rolls, and tapes, and are widely used for making gaskets and sealing materials in industries like petrochemical and steel. These products have high carbon content and good tensile strength, making them suitable for demanding applications. Additionally, different types of graphite yarns are available for weaving into packing materials, while graphite fabrics are used for cutting into gaskets for pipeline sealing.

Overview of Graphite Sheets

1. Uses of Graphite Sheets

Gasket fabrication for flanges, heat exchangers, and piping systems

Thermal shielding and heat dissipation in electronics

EMI/RFI shielding in sensitive equipment

Static sealing applications in oil & gas, chemical, and power industries

2. Features of Graphite Sheets

Excellent temperature resistance (up to 450°C in air, 3000°C in inert conditions)

Chemically inert to most media except strong oxidizers

High compressibility and conformability to irregular surfaces

Electrically and thermally conductive

Fire-safe and low-leakage performance

3. Types of Graphite Sheets

Flexible Graphite Sheet: Pure expanded graphite, easily conformable

Reinforced Graphite Sheet: Laminated with stainless steel foil, tanged metal, or mesh for strength

Oxidation-Inhibited Graphite: Enhanced resistance for high-temperature oxidizing environments

Composite Graphite Sheets: Bonded with PTFE or other materials for specialized applications

Overview of Graphite Yarns

1. Uses of Graphite Yarns

Braided into packing rings for valves, pumps, and agitators

Dynamic sealing in rotating or reciprocating equipment

Emission control in fugitive emission service (API 622, ISO 15848)

High-temperature sealing in power plants and refineries

2. Features of Graphite Yarns

Outstanding thermal resistance (up to 650°C in steam)

Low friction and self-lubricating, ideal for dynamic motion

Resistant to most chemicals across a wide pH range (0–14)

Flexible, resilient, and easy to braid or install

Can be reinforced for added strength and extrusion resistance

3. Types of Graphite Yarns

Pure Graphite Yarn: High-purity expanded graphite without additives

Wire-Reinforced Graphite Yarn: Typically reinforced with Inconel or stainless steel for high-pressure service

Graphite-PTFE Yarn: Combines low friction of PTFE with thermal stability of graphite

Carbon/Glass Fiber-Reinforced Graphite Yarn: Adds abrasion resistance and structural strength
