Causes of electrode paste soft breaking accident

 The reason for the soft fracture of the electrode paste is quite right. Generally speaking, there are mainly the following aspects:

(1) The electrode paste contains too much volatile matter.

(2) The iron plate of the electrode shell is too thin or too thick. Too thin will not be able to withstand large external forces and rupture, causing the electrode iron shell to fold or leak and softly break when pressed and put; too thick will cause the iron shell and the electrode core to not contact closely and cause the core to cross. It will also cause soft disconnection.

(3) Poor production of the electrode iron shell or poor welding quality will cause cracking, which will lead to leakage or soft fracture.

(4) When the electrode is lowered, the load of the electric furnace is not reduced or reduced too little. After the electrode is discharged, the load increases too fast, which will also cause the electrode to softly break (except for large furnaces).

(5) The electrode is lowered too frequently, the interval is too short, or after the electrode is lowered, the electrode is too long and causes soft disconnection.

(6) The electrode paste is not added in time, and the position of the electrode paste is too high or too low, which will also cause the electrode to softly break.

(7) The electrode paste block is too large, and the thick branches and leaves are thick when the paste is added, and they are placed on the ribs and are overhead, which may also cause soft fracture.

Supplement soft break:

The reason for the soft break is mainly the excessive amount of binder in the product, but there are also factors of improper operation. The soft break generally occurs after the hard break. After the hard break, the electrode needs to be baked. The electrode baking time is not sufficient, that is, it is easy to switch to normal production. Cause soft disconnection. In some cases, too thin paste brings great difficulties to the firing of the electrode and leads to soft fracture. The fundamental reason is that the self-baking speed of the electrode is less than the consumption speed of the working end of the electrode.

Study on impurities in high purity flake graphite

Image
 　　For the analysis of trace impurities in high-purity flake graphite, the sample is usually pre ashed or wet digested to remove carbon, the ash is dissolved with acid, and then the impurity content in the solution is determined. The ashing method does not need to use ultra pure acid to dissolve the ash, thus avoiding the risk of introducing the elements to be measured, so it is used more. It is also very difficult to detect the ash content of high-purity flake graphite, because the enriched ash needs to be burned at high temperature, and it is difficult to separate the ash from the sample boat at high temperature, which makes it impossible to accurately determine the composition and content of impurities. 　　The existing methods all take advantage of the characteristic that the platinum crucible does not react with acid, use the platinum crucible to burn the high-purity flake graphite to enrich ash, and then directly heat the sample in the crucible with acid to dissolve th

General technical index requirements for electrode paste

Image
 Electrode occupies an important position in submerged arc furnace. The working conditions of the electrode are bad, the current passing through is high, the temperature difference between the two ends is large, and the production is affected by the impact of mechanical, electrical and charge collapse... Mechanical strength, higher electrical resistivity, better thermal shock resistance, oxidation resistance and smaller thermal expansion coefficient. Generally speaking, the quality of electrode paste is controlled by the following five indicators: 1. Ash: Ash is the residue of electrode paste when it is burnt to constant weight at 850℃-870℃. It belongs to inorganic minerals. It has high ash resistivity, poor strength, high power consumption, and large electrode consumption. In the event of a hard breaking accident, the ash content is a very important indicator, and the lower the better. 2. Volatile matter: Volatile matter refers to the mass loss of electrode paste under the condition o

Performance characteristics of anthracite electrode paste

 Anthracite is the main raw material of electrode paste. The performance of anthracite is related to the performance of electrode paste. Therefore, it is necessary to understand and discuss the performance of anthracite to ensure the quality of electrode paste. Anthracite coal in China is mainly distributed in Shanxi, Ningxia and Guizhou. Shanxi is the origin of anthracite, which is mainly produced in Yangquan and Jincheng. Anthracite is an indispensable raw material for carbon industry. It is mainly used in semi graphite cathode carbon block, electric furnace carbon block, blast furnace carbon block, carbon electrode and various pastes. Studying and discussing various properties of anthracite is very beneficial to improve the quality of carbon products.
