Refractory Applications

Even 10,000 years ago, people knew to use fire-resistant materials for extractive metallurgy. The use of graphite in this application has been known for 2000 years.

Graphite has its established position as a highly heat-conducting, chemically inert and highly resistant component in modern fire-resistant applications such as blast furnace cladding or melting pots.

As a covering material and a carburising medium in foundry applications, graphite improves the end properties of the metal both in pure form and in combination with other raw materials.

Georg H. Luh GmbH supplies items from its extensive product range of high- quality flake graphites, affordable amorphous graphites and synthetic graphites with a high degree of purity, just in time and with the desired packaging.
