Carbon Granules are granular forms of elemental carbon, often used in applications requiring high-purity carbon material in a less powdery, more manageable form. These granules are usually made from high-quality carbon sources and purified to contain minimal impurities, achieving a purity level of 99.99% or higher.
Formula: C (elemental carbon).
Purity: Typically ≥99.99%, with ultra-low levels of metallic and non-metallic impurities.
Appearance: Black, coarse granular form.
Particle Size: Available in granules with size ranges from 0.5 mm up to a few millimeters, which reduces dust and makes handling easier.
Density: Generally similar to powdered carbon, around 2.1 g/cm³, though it may vary slightly with porosity.
Structure: Carbon granules are available in both amorphous and crystalline forms, such as graphite granules, which can be chosen based on application needs.
Filtration and Purification: Used in water and air filtration systems, where high-purity carbon effectively adsorbs contaminants and impurities.
Metallurgy: Utilized as a high-purity carburizing agent or reducing agent in metal refining and processing.
Battery and Fuel Cell Production: Provides conductivity and stability in some types of battery and fuel cell technologies.
Chemical Processing: Acts as a support material in catalysts or as a reactant in high-purity chemical syntheses.
High-Temperature Applications: Suitable for environments where carbon must withstand high temperatures, such as in heat shields or refractory materials.
Handling: Compared to powder, granules are easier to handle with reduced risk of dust inhalation, though standard precautions are still recommended.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry area to prevent oxidation or contamination; sealed containers are preferable.
Safety Precautions: Though less dusty than powder, high-purity carbon granules should still be handled with protective gloves, eye protection, and adequate ventilation.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
