What is HP graphite electrodes? HP electrode specification and HP graphite electrodes uses

HP graphite electrode is usually used as conductor of large capacity electric arc furnace.
What is hp graphite electrodes?
HP graphite electrodes meaning is high power, According to the rate power, graphite electrodes can be divided into regular power (RP) graphite electrode, high power (HP) graphite electrode, ultra high power (UHP) graphite electrode.
HP graphite electrode refers to a kind of high power graphite based electricity conduction material, which adopts petroleum coke, needle shaped coke as aggregate, coal asphalt as binder, and are processed by complex crafts such as calcining, crushing, milling, batching, mixing, forming, roasting, impregnating, graphitization and mechanical processing.
