Sintering
High strength graphite for pressure sintering
Mersen graphite is very widely used in pressure sintering processes.
It enables the fabrication of sintering moulds which in turn are used to produce diamond or ceramic cutting tools, and ceramic armour elements for military applications. Our customers particularly appreciate the excellent performance characteristics of Mersen iso-moulded graphite in these high-temperature processes. The combination of exceptional thermal conductivity and a low coefficient of thermal expansion is an essential element to ensure the dimensional stability of sintering moulds.
